I havnt seen any recent discussions on hard drives. What are you guys using these days? I was originally planning on picking up some HGST's but am now leaning toward WD Reds. Has there been any recent development/news with HDD's to look out for?
I havnt heard of any issue's with either brand, but wanted to ask in case I was out of the loop with anything. I'm looking to get 4tb drives at the minimum, at least 4-5 of them.
Here is what the rest of my setup looks like (So far)
Motherboard: Supermicro X9-SCM-F-O
CPU: Xenon E3-1230 V2
Memory: Hynix HMT41GU7MFR8C-PB 16GB (Never heard of this brand, Got this off of SuperMicro's website as tested memory for this board. Hope these are good sticks)
I also have the IBM raid card to flash for addition HDD's
My current USB drive is a weak 2GB stick, I will obviously be changing this over to a good legit 8+GB USB stick considering they are cheap.
I'm hoping to take advantage of some of the deals going on this weekend and get closer to finally completing this build. I've had my motherboard and cpu just sitting for a while and my current build is just about full. I'm hoping to complete this and transfer all my files over.
