Well western digital and Seagate both carry 5 year warranties. Seagate I
believe does on almost all of there products. WD you have to pick the
right drive.
That's nice, but it seems similar to my Toshiba laptop drive experience
--- it breaks, we replace it. I would rather not have to replace

You want an in-depth comparison of how a server disk drive is internally
better than a desktop drive:

BTW, someone (Western Digital?) is now offering SATA drives that carry
the same MTBF

I disagree. RAID management is complicated, and once there is a disk
failure, all kinds of oddities can occur which can make it quite a
challenge to get back a non

Hi,
I've just had some discussion with colleagues regarding the usage of
hardware or software raid 1/10 for our linux based database servers.
I myself can't see much reason to spend $500 on high end controller

Any arguments pro or contra would be desirable.
