Re: [Avid-L2] current best sata drives

 

Thanks.  I'm checking with Caldigit on HDone size limitations.  Toshiba has 4TB drives for 159.00

Nothing scary.  I put 4 4TB Hitachi Deskstars in my MacPro.  3 raided for 12 TB.  No problems after more than a year.  I don't work the system 24/7 but I would suggest the 4TB at least.  Shop around I think I've found the 4TB for as little as $159.00 although $189 to $199 are more common prices.  Make sure the Raid box can support 4TB drives.  I've had certain external enclosures that won't support 4TB on FW 800 but do with Esata.  I think it has to do with the chipsets etc... but I'm not an expert on the subject.

Thats a scary amount of media in one Raid.  But the capacity would be very nice for sure.

You might want to consider buying 4 to 6 TB.
