Wow. Thanks  Gianluca
You just saved me from a big mistake.
I recommend only WD RED (if possible), but pay attention anyway what you are
buying.
I had Samsung and Seagate before, but all failed except of one. I replaced
them with WD RED over time and these are working since without issues. I
must say respect to WD. This is why I bought last year a couple of WD RED
SSDs 1TB and replaced the spinning one.
I am very happy with the setup. It serves the whole family very well since
around 2005 ... but it underwent a serious evolution until it took a shape.
In fact I bought two LSI controllers and 2x6 cages. I have only 8 disks
inside and they are mirrored so that each half is on separate controller.
LSI limits the speed to 3Gbps, but I feel better knowing that only if the
mainboard or power supply fails, I would have an issue. I was wondering if
I should buy a second mainboard, but after so many years, I would not mind
to replace it if it fails.
Do the LSI controllers checksum the date on read/write like ZFS?
