I'm about to purchase components for a Video Editing PC Build and was planning on using 2 WD Caviar Black HD's in RAID 0. I just came across info in some posts regarding WD Blacks can't be used in RAID because of something called TLER . Anybody have solid input on this?
Thanks

Blacks are fine. reds are designed for use in a SAN or server environment. You can use reds, but the blacks will be fine. It has to do with the amount of data (throughput) on the drives over a period of time. Reds are designed for high utilization over long periods(like in a server) where blacks are designed for high throughput but for shorter duration or periods of time(like on a desktop)
