Are WD Black drives worth the price premium?
WD warranty service was exceptional with a Raptor drive I had a 10 years ago and a Black drive I had a couple years back. Best RMA experiences I have ever had with any company.
I was just thinking that for the price of one 2TB Black drive I could almost get 3x Blue 1TB drives and set them up in RAID5. I'd get the same amount of space, double read speed and fault tolerance. Good idea?
I'd rather just buy two standard 2TB and put them in simple RAID1. Not as fancy but less hassle down the road.
I looked at the SE drive but I read in customer reviews that its SATA connecter had no locking mechanism and that it's underside screw holes were shallower than usual. Both would pose a problem for my particular setup so I decided to avoid.
Right now I have my eyes on this 3TB Hitachi drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...2145911&cm_re=hgst_3tb-_-22-145-911-_-Product
