WinterLight,
I do not have an option. My NAS runs normally with RAID1? (mirrored
pair) at basic setup. Setup is done. I am now 12mo into my NAS. LOVE IT!
ATM, I am happy with this level of data protection. I do have a spare HD
should my NAS take a dive..... :(
Thanks for your feelings.
Best,
Duncan

I have two 500GB, one 1TB, and one 1.5 TB Seagate SATA 2 drives and they
are all good. It doesn't make sense to get less then 1TB which can be
had for around $85. However, most of these drives are not really
designed for RAID like the enterprise drives, so they take a beating
when they run in a RAID setup. Personally, I don't like RAID on a single
user network, and at the sizes and speed available, I don't need for it.

Seeking info only. I do know that many here do NOT care for Seagate
drives..... Fine.
Anyway, does anybody use any of these Seagate drives ATM?
ST31000 333AS
ST31000 340AS
ST31000 340NS
ST31000 340SV
ST31000 528AS

ST31000 5N1D1AS-RK

Looking to upgrade my NAS........ :)
Right now my NAS uses a pair of ST3500830SCE drives. These 500GB
drives appear to be built for use in home DVR devices. They work very
well ATM. But, Seagate does not offer a 1TB model in this "DB35.2"
series. Hmm...... :(
Best,
Duncan
