I found this its the cheapest 10TB Exos drive on Newegg and looking to buy 4 of them. I will be putting them in my NAS that I use for my media library and pc backups. The price I’m posting this is $130, I’m also looking similar Exos drives that are $250 is there a difference? Should I shell up for the more expensive drives?
Ok cool, I plan on using them in RAID Z1
Make that RAID Z2 my friend. One disk of redundancy is simply not enough. If a disk fails while resilvering, which can and does happen, then your entire array is lost.
Hard agree. Regret only using Z1 for my own NAS. Nothings gone wrong yet 🤞but we’ve had to replace all the drives once so far which has led to some buttock clenching.
When I upgrade, I will not be making the same mistake. (Instead I’ll find shiny new mistakes to make)
This should be the community slogan
You must be running an icredible HA software stack for uptime increases so far behind the decimal to matter.
That was uncalled for.
