Hi guys I have a server running windows server 2012 essentials that I store backups stream 1080p movies via dlna music and so on. now I need to buy a drive but I I cant decide between 1.seagate 3tb 7200rpm 64mb power uses 8.8W
2.seagate 4tb 5900rpm 64mb power 8.8
or
1.WD RED 3TB 5400 rpm 64mb Power 4.5W
2.WD RED 4TB 7200RPM 64mb power uses 4.5W
I will be using about 5 of these drives in the future so will power usage be a big difference ? and seagate drives 3tb seams is 7200rpm but 4 tb is 5900, and WD 4tb 7200rpm and 3tb only 5400rpm. So if I go with 3tb which do you suggest and with 4tb which you suggest and WD are really made for nas so do I really need them on a tower server? thanks guys
