So which 2TB drive for an NV+?
What is the best bang for the buck when it comes to 2TB disks in an NV+?
I see that the Seagate ST2000DL003 appears unreliable, but hey isn't that what RAID is for? :) Obviously I don't want all disks going at the same time!
Keep in mind I am in the UK - so it would be preferable if the drives were available here - and at a reasonable price.
TIA.

If you get a ST2000DL003 be sure to get one with CC3C firmware or newer. See http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=364047#p364047 - mrbill1AspirantThanks for the response - I was hoping for a personal recommendation though - but i'll keep the seagate in mind if the reliability issues are fixed in a later firmware update. Is anyone running the seagates with the later firmware reliably?
