Thanks, didn't know their memory selector did that. That's pretty sweet if they keep it relatively up to date/accurate.

I am only refuting the "more reliable" point in comparison to the GREEN.. performance difference is also negligible, but even if there's a small gap, these will likely just store a bunch of porn.

You have to have both - an OS that supports 3TB and a motherboard / controller that supports 3TB drives. You may find yourself with one and not the other.

It makes no difference. If you have an HTPC as a home server then a NAS drive system is recommended, and some slower large drives can't handle it and die quickly, these won't, that is all.

You can software RAID the Green drives since it doesn't use TLER. However, RAID shouldn't be the only form of 'backup' since it is just for drive redundancy.

If you do that, you MUST disable/change the head parking on the greens. If you do not, it will park the head every 8 seconds of inactivity. This will greatly increase the load count.
