WD10EADS WD Caviar Green - 1TB >> excessive Load Cycle Count
I have two WD10EADS 1TB drives in my Duo. The first was installed a months ago as Drive 2, mirroring the 500 GB Seagate that came with the Duo. The WD drive seemed to work just fine, so I recently bo...
Got some news. I talked with my webshop today and I was able to return both discs and get the money back. Even though one is used :o
So, I'm going to return both of them. Get my money back, then wait for the replacement of the broken Seagate to arrive.
Hopefully it's compatible and everything (sigh, never thought it would be such a hassle with drives). And then I can order a identical Seagate or another drive.
I've got no idea if a execcive LCC leads to drive failure, and I'm not bothered by the noise as you are NAS-t. I've got my Duo beside my computer on the floor and it's more noisy then the Duo make by far.
But, I've got the chance to replace my drives so I will, just in case.
I just remembered that I've got a WD Caviar Green a while back and put in my stationary. I don't know what type it is, 2-platter or not. I'll check when I get home and check with some S.M.A.R.T-program how many LCCs that drive has.
But as I've understood this is a "problem" not only caused by the NAS right? Just that you'd like more reliable drives in a NAS?
