Hi friends,

I was just wondering what the most current opinions were with regard to 5400
vs 7200 RPM drives.

Also, have people been happy with the Western Digital 100gig Special Edition
drives?

What are other people using?

fwiw, I'm planning on running three WD1000JB's. Two of them mirrored and the
third as a backup until needed as a spare.  This is for a remote colo so in
the event a drive dies I need lots of time to be able to get a new drive in,
so raid5 is out. (I can't only fit in three drives)

Thanks,
David U.
