I've never seen error rates listed before (nice of them to do that). Looks like it's 1 error per 10^15 bits read which is roughly 125TB

Thanks, I picked some up. In theory, these should be nicer than their archival series drives, and have a decent 3 year warranty and 7200rpm speed w/ larger buffer.
