I'm putting together a 48 bay NAS for my company [24 drives to start]. My manager has already ordered 24 2TB [b]WD Caviar Green[/b] consumer drives - should we send these back and order the 2TB [b]WD RE4-GP[/b] enterprise drives instead?
I'm tempted to try these out. First off, they're about $100 less per drive. Second, my experience with so called "consumer" drives in a raid controller has been pretty good - only 2 drive failures in five years with an Apple X-Raid. Thoughts? Opinions? Flames? All input is appreciated. Thanks. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
