My Seagate 7200.7s have been working fine. I bought a quality case that
has good cooling for all the drives and didn't stack any of them
together. So far, the only failure was a Maxtor, which threw a SMART
code before failing so I was able to pull the data that wasn't backed
up off of it. Of course, in retrospect, it wasn't backed up because I
didn't need it, but I hardly knew that at the time.
Thanks to the new FDB tech and lighter platters, the new 7200s run as
cool as any of my old 5400s ever did. And they're quieter, too. Anyway,
I'm out of space at the moment (2x120, 1x160). Is that $30 after a
rebate? I do need to build a couple of media boxes and those might be
ideal in mirrored pairs.
