Got 6 of these last round, the 4 that I am using are working great, the other 2 are still packaged. Oh and they came from dell double boxed, VERY well packaged!
I paid $85 per drive on black friday....bla bla bla....you should wait until its a real sale....bla bla bla....bad firmware....bla bla bla, there I saved you guys 50x posts.
Great drive. I have been using it for 6 months and I have not had any problems so far. I picked mine up at newegg on blackfriday for around 110.
Anyone know if Seagate will be releasing any 7200.12 above 1 TB anytime soon?
#2.... exactly!
I'm in for a 2-pack
#3
I have no clue... but have been waiting for the 7200.12 1.5TB drives as well. I really didn't think it would be this long.
What's so great about the new .12 drives>
2 pack its like its telling you to run them in RAID 1 because 1 will fail.
#7 you are correct, EVERY drive will fail one day, BACKUPS ARE REQUIRED. Those who don't will lose one day.
I'm in for a pair and will set them up as RAID 1.
#8, correct, its not if but when... unfortunately most people learn the importance of backups AFTER their hard drive crashes.
I know drives will fail.. 6 years ago I was running a raid 0 and one of the 120 gig drives died on me... ever since then I run them in raid 1's ... I just found it neat that they started selling them in 2 packs. I cant wait to see them market them as matched pairs.
I just paid $800 for data recovery - boy did I learn the need for backup firsthand.
Save yourself some money and make sure you have a backup.
C'mon Ben. It's tupac!!!
#10 don't feel to bad, I know a company that had a Compaq/HP data server and the junior tech setup all 6 drives as RAID 0, they only found that out AFTER the server lost one drive. Approx 1TB lost.
Never do RAID 0 with important data unless you mirror that set as well.
#6
There isn't a big difference but the newer drives have bigger platters so their read/write speeds are about 10% higher.
#6 & #10 - The platters are the same size (sigh). The .12s use the latest platter tech and can cram 500GB onto each one, so only three platters are needed for 1.5TB. The .11s used 380GB plattters and had to cram four in. That extra platter increases heat output as well as makes the drive a tiny bit slower. Power savings are significant when moving to the 12 series.
Great deal. Building a RAID 5 array with 6 drives on 3.8ghz i7. Finally I can store all those torrents.
#10 - LOL! Matched pairs - ha... when did that die out for RAM anyway?
so is this 2 1.5 TB drives for a total of 3TB?
correct #18.
Very nice price!!!
