I wanted a good warranty for the drives in my RAID setup, so I have a pair of
WD Black 1Tb drives in one NAS and a pair of Seagate 1 Tb drives in the other.
Both are 5 yr warranty drives...
The WD's are only 104 bucks right now at NewEgg. The Netgear came with
one Seagate, so I bought the matching drive for it, otherwise it would
have 2 of the WD Blacks in it as well. :)
I was looking at the blacks, mentioned it in my post I thought. The issue
I have with that is that WD says not to use them in a raid because of the
Deep Recovery Cycle.
I assume if the drive is going into deep recovery cycle they are getting
close to death anyways and I shouldn't notice any problems?
