Seagate ST32000644NS & ReadyNAS Pro 6
Hello, I have a ReadyNAS Pro 6 with 4 ST32000644NS 2TB drives. I'd like to fully populate my ReadyNAS, but these drives are no longer current. The hardware compatibility list only lists two Seagate Constellation 2TB drives. This one and the ST2000NM0011, which is also old (and I believe is just ES, not ES2). There are no newer drives in the list. Am I best to try and track down two of these drives (ST32000644NS) somewhere or can I use the newer versions of these drives? What risks am I taking if I do that? It looks like there is a ST32000645NS which appears to be a newer version of the Constellation ES2 drive. Would I be safe to use that? Thanks. Matt
ST2000VN000 on the Duo V1 - thoughts?
I'm upgrading my Duo V1's drives from 1TB to 2TB (raid 1) After doing a bit of research, my decision came down to the ST2000VN000 or the WD20EFRX. (I considered the ST2000DM001, but that seemed to get a lot of mixed reviews.) Anyway, I'm leaning on the ST2000VN000. Is anyone using the ST2000VN000 on a Duo V1? Anyone have any recommendations for a 2TB drive for the Duo V1 ? -Thanks in advance!
ST2000DM001 reliability experience ?
Seems like the only option I can easily get for 2TB that is on the HCL for my NV+ is this drive. I note a previous topic where users were experimenting with and starting to use this drive in their NAS systems and was wondering what experiences you have had with them in terms of reliability. I ask because when I look at reviews for this drive from my usual supplier, I see quite a few that pan it for reliability reasons. This makes me think twice about going ahead with a purchase, so would like to cut through some FUD and get info from NAS users on this drive. My alternatives are to get a WD20EFRX or ST2000NM0033 (ie: some NAS quality drives, neither of which is on HCL for NV+, though). Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences!Seagate ST1000DL002-9TT153 dropouts
My Readynas Duo V2 of a couple of months age was initially loade with two Hitachi 500GB drives, one Deskstar and one Videostar (my favourite). These filled up and I bought two Seagate ST1000DL002-9TT153 1TB drives. I loaded first one, synced, then the other, synced again. No problems. With both drives in sync and running at a comfortable 38 C I reckoned all was well. Maybe a week later the first (LH) drive dropped out. Log said it was removed. Pull the drive and re-insert, drive recognised and resyncing. Resync completes without error. No errors logged on drive. Maybe a month, and it has just dropped that drive again. Pull it, re-insert, recognised, re-syncing. No errors logged on drive. Now is it the drives or the NAS? I will comment that I have over the years collected piles of bricked drives and the proportion and Seagate and WD put me off buying those brands for a long time. It has only been prices which swayed me this time, and owner changes at Hitachi. Cheers
