Sorry Ben - that drive was NOT a smart buy !!! Seagate Barracuda :-(
You MUST enable the timeout on this drive :-(
Gut feel tells me most 1TB or less drives are okay in a raid - the
Barracudas are an exception :-( I've got two 3TB Barracudas mirrored,
and from reading the list, there's no way I'd go raid5 for more capacity
without ditching them.
Most people seem to get WD Reds - I've asked about Seagate NAS but I've
not picked up on any reports about them - good or bad. Barracudas - the
news is pretty much all bad :-(
Cheers,
Wol
