Hello, all:
I have been looking to buy an NAS but I am puzzled! All of the reasonably-priced NAS boxes I have looked at (just a few to be honest, but all of the ones I've looked at) support only SATA 3GBs but the HDDs that are recommended for NAS (WD Red, for example) are all SATA 6GBs. Are these drives intended for commercial use where a great many of these drives are used (i.e. not for use in arrays of 2 or 3)?
I appreciate any advice anyone can give.
