You know, I had a sneaky thought about this the other night - my (MythTV) drives tend to fail within a year - so, if I double up next time I buy, I should, in theory, have spares for next time it happens, and can switch over to the new drives whilst the knackered ones are being replaced :)Besides the drives themselves, the big news is that drive manufacturers are taking heat issues seriously. This makes sense even without the embedded market, as I would bet that a high percentage of their warranty replacements are from overheated drives.

Can't really see any other way round it, and at least then I don't have to pay for replacements!
Oh, and the drives are fully cooled, and mounted in heatsinks, just in case anyone thinks I am cooking them - they stay pretty constant @ 35 degrees c, but are running all the time.
