WD Green and Red
Hi all, I'm thinking of a couple of new drives for my NAS, 3TB. I know Reds are designed for NAS but my NAS would be used by a single user, as external storage. Not a massive usage. I am concerned ...
I have one Seagate ST31500341AS and five WD30EFRX in my pro-6. The Seagate temperature at the moment is 37°C. The WDC drive right next to the Seagate is running at 33°C, the others are running 27-29°C. Overall temperatures significantly dropped when I switched to the NAS drives. Seagate NAS drives use about the same power as the WDC, so they should also result in cooler temps.
