Subject: Green drives and RAID arrays with partity
Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2011 13:02:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E7F0A31.4070001@yazzy.org> (raw)

Hi guys.

I was wondering if it's safe to use so called green drives in RAID 5 or 
RAID 6 with md?
Drive such as Seagate Barracuda® Green 2TB ST2000DL003 or Western 
Digital Caviar® Green™ 2TB WD20EARX have TLER off and reading misc 
forums I understand that it would be a good idea to buy drives with that 
option available.
On the other hand some people claim that Linux/Solaris/BSD based 
software RAID may be able to work just fine with these drives.
