Tempted, I'm running out of space on my 2 disk QNAP with two 3TB mirrored. Best to hold out for 6TB or 8TB in my case, but now I wish I paid extra for a 4 disk NAS minimum.
But it's only 5900 rpm. Wouldn't I be loosing performance on 4 of these in RAID 10 vs 7200 ram drives?
This was my original thought but after research, a NAS that is on 24/7 generates more heat and wear/tear if 7200rpm. Performance is gained through raid config
This or the WD Red plus for $97? Thanks in advance.
Not sure why the downvote for a question that I'm sure many have.
I worked in IT during the Seagate .11 and .12 drive disasters, with 30+% failure rates across thousands of systems. So I am no seagate lover, and it's taken years of improved drives for me to be willing to consider them again. Reds have has their share of issue as well, many of which because of business decisions by WD.
If I were buying today I'd lean seagate, but you really can't go wrong (statistically, at least) with either choice.
