recommended for RAID. They seem to be good.
I think Kate means to move the magnetic disks from the failed driver to the
one that you know is working. Clearly you can not use different make/model.
But it is risky task.
Did you try badblocks?

You can't
mix boards. They must be the same make and model.
Perhaps you can buy just the board? Or a used working one?
I've used both SG and WD and have had far more failures with WD.
I guess it depends on the models and how they are used?
I currently have nearly all SG drives in the "big machine" the server.
12 drives in total with no failures over the last 10 years.

I always knew that, if Seagate somehow stays in business, then they must
have some customers somewhere. You must be the one.
