Taking a punt on the WD20EARX SATA3 disks
These aren't in the HCL but the SATA2 version seems to be disappearing fast (and the sub-product code on the HCL seems to be gone already) so what the hell. Assuming these disks do work (can't find...
Well the disks seem to work fine. I don't yet know if they will exhibit the power saving parking issue. Will keep an eye on the LCC.
After recreating the C volume and rebooting, the third disk started to sync (4th is in my PC as the NAS backup holding pen) and that's going to take about 24 hours. Which seems a lot for an empty volume but I guess writing the parity data isn't a simple 1.8TBs of zeroes (or perhaps it is, but those zeroes have to be written & verified)
Seems happy enough with me copying the data back at the same time, albeit that's only writing at about 13MB/s
Thanks for the advice, all seems to be going to plan.
