[H] 3TB
I want to get one or more 3TB desktop drives to store videos oneither a Seagate or WD ... maybe a WD Red. I am really looking at reliability and price point rather then performance. Anybody have any issues with large 3TB drives?

Re: [H] 3TB
I have 3 WD Red 3 TB drives in an array and they are operating fine since last November. They are installed in an "older" Gigabyte motherboard, GA-870A-UD3 RT, circa early 2011. > -Original Message- > From: hardware-boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware- > boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of Winterlight > Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2013 2:16 PM > To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com > Subject: [H] 3TB > > I want to get one or more 3TB desktop drives to store videos oneither a > Seagate or WD ... maybe a WD Red.

I have at least 10 of them running in my movie box. They work fine for this application.

I would highly suggest the WD RED drives. They are labled as NASWare; so I use them. Very quiet, relatively cool.

I've got five 4TB Seagate drives in a Drobo5N. All working well about 5 mos now. I have 4 WD 3TB reds in a ReadyNAS NV+ v2. I had 1 die within days, but the replacement is fine. The reds have a better-longer warranty. lopaka From: Anthony Q.

Re: [H] 3TB
I forgot to mention that I've been using these 3tb drives for two years now. No problems yet. They do go to sleep a lot and I leave the machine on 24/7. > On Sep 18, 2013, at 8:48 PM, "Robert Martin Jr." wrote: > > I've got five 4TB Seagate drives in a Drobo5N.
