Advice on which drive hard buy for Raid

I'm going to buy http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136544 8 these hard drives, and I'll use a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816131004 raid controller to implement RAID 3. Western Digital know that these drives are not suitable for the raid, disk only I can find, is a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136797. I was wondering if there is a difference actaul between these two that makes the difference. Also, I was wondering if anyone of you knows another hard drive that would be good for the raid which is less than $ 100.

Your choice of reader and the controller look good for me.

I have used a controller Areca with WD black for the past two years, and as long as you do not have a form any backup other than redundancy RAID 5 on your PC, you should be OK with the readers of 'consumer' (aka black WD, Hitachi sister, etc.) as opposed to "enterprise" drives for RAID (AKA WE RE3 RE4, Hitachi Ultrastar etc) systems.

Records of the company are:

-usually best parts - possibly some companies choose the best boards with defects less for their dearest readers

-Sometimes a few features that help with vibrations caused by multiple drives in a PC working in tandem

-almost always a feature that will keep the drive of the company to continue to try to correct any error while reading or writing beyond a certain number of seconds. WD calles this TLER (time limited error recovery);

I've seen individuals suggesting that setting the spin-up time is increased from the default.7 seconds up to 1 second when you use consumer readers to help prevent consumer drives marked as bad. I did this and I have never had a car abandoned in two years.

I have about 50% business (RE3 1 TB WD) and about 50% of consumer records (Black 1 TB 32 MB cache) that are very similar, with the exception of the firmware. In two years, I had a bad drive; No data has been lost, performance just the RAID and even that was pretty subtle. And by the way, it was one of the RE3 drives aren't infected, one of consumer readers! When I started with the WD drives, it was possible to download a software and to set the time on consumer drives TLER and gain many of the benefits models company without having to pay for more expensive readers. Then, a year ago WD changed their line WD Black to defeat this utility (it was a utility WD TLER!) to work with their readers of consumers; Yes, their were some upset users on this one!

  • Use iMac drive HARD internal for storage only.

    I initialize my iMac to an external SSD. It makes my computer run faster. How can I completely wipe the drive HARD internal of my iMac and use it as a storage only?

    This isn't a big problem, except one. Apple does not support this method as a permanent solution. However, you have an iMac of 2012. I have a Mac Mini from 2012. I used a 1 to LaCie Thunderbolt Rugged HD to do this thing very via the Thunderbolt port. It worked very well for a while. Personally, I started my primary internal HD for OS X and the LaCie Thunderbolt as external storage. For reasons of registration and so on. Recovery of the Internet, as well. I have not found any major difference in the "boot speed" between internal or external HD. I upgraded the RAM of 4 GB to 16 GB all. and BAM!

    My HD Thunderbolt is partitioned as a time Capsule (1st partition bootable) and Mac Storage (2nd partition). The choice is yours, of course.

    Bravo!

  • Should which driver I use for Windows XP on Portege R500 by WLan

    Because I couldn't get the wireless Lan driver, Intel, 11.1.0.100 references driver Toshiba download site (I'm redirected to a link that does not work), I went on the site: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/. Information about the two sites, all two of Toshiba, are contradictory:

    A site lists 11.1.0.100 references as driver for Windows XP, the other site of the 11.1.0.100 references as the driver for Vista 64 and the 11.1.1.16 as driver for Windows XP. Which should I use for Windows XP on Portege R500?

    Sorry my friend but after reading your question, I can just laugh. Use simply listed http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads driver, install it and enjoy your life.

  • Re: Satellite Z830-10j - which driver should I for blocking touchpad?

    I installed my new Satellite Z830-10j. No recovery or other. Clean fresh new windows. Seems to me that all drivers were forund by Windows. But I can't restore the driver or software for this little button above the touchpad. It is the button to block the touchpad in the case where you write a lot about the keyboard.

    You have an idea?

    > I have installed my new Satellite Z830-10j.
    Out of curiosity, but why you did that? What is the reason for this? I mean you've had perfectly configured and don t working well the OS and I understand the people who do this.
    Did you create recovery media until you have installed the version of the OS?

    In any case, I assume that you lack Toshiba Value added package.

    Hello!

    You use a Microsoft installation disc not the Toshiba Recovery disk, right?
    For Microsoft disc, you need the SATA/RAID driver. Have you downloaded?

    Also if you can not access the HARD disk I would check this with special tools:
    http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
    With the Drive Fitness Test, you can test your HARD drive. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.
    On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

    Good bye

  • On which drive hard should I keep copies of 'work' of my web pages?

    Hello.


    I have just joined the Adobe Forums so I'm still a little nervous as a beginner start at the bottom.


    I wonder if someone will help solve me my question on my hard disk drives.


    I just started the Dreamweaver tutorial, "creating your first site, part 1: implement your site files and project" (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt1.html), and I'm about to set up a local site folder.


    The tutorial read, "you have now defined a file of local site for the site of check ofmagazine. "It's where you keep the working copies of web pages on your local computer."


    I have the following hard disk drives,


    320 (programs and Windows 7)
    250 GB
    250 GB
    1.5 TB
    1.5 TO,


    and I wonder what disk hard I have to keep these "working copies" of my web pages?

    Are "working copies", "Project files" and "modified files" the same thing?

    Lea,

    It must be very clear to express your questions here, other people as naïve that might hurt myself to understand what you mean.

    Project files generally focus on the PR if you mean something in DW, I must admit that I don't know what you're talking about. I use DW regularly, but never come across the term "Project file" in this application.

    Wherever you place your media and PR project files, you need a good backup, especially for the files in your project if store you them on your raid0. For your Web site, it is not that important, because you can still synchronize your local site by FTP with that on the hosting server, which acts as a backup for you.
