Support for Seagate SV35 Series?
I found these drives on NewEgg.com. Any chance you guys are testing these drives?
We don't know most drives are not tested. We only know that most drives are not on the HCL. We do not know if that is because of problems encountered during the testing or whether they were not tested.
For the same price as the SV25 2TB drive one can purchase on of the new WD Red label drives that is the same price in the 2TB sized (WD20EFRX) and is on the HCL. WD designed this drive for RAID enclosures and is recommended by WD for various manufacturers RAID enclosure. It has a 3 year warranty, but I can not find anywhere, not even on the Seagate website what the warranty on the S35 is so I shall assume the same as all current consumer drives which is now reduced to 1 year.
Even as one who has favored Seagate over the years, I would tend to go for the WD red label drives.
