Hey guys ive posted before but without logging in so i dont know whether the thread going to show up or not
heres my question
I have samsung 850 evo SSD 120 gb for my OS and my specs are
i7 6700k
Ripjaws V 8x2 2133
Asus z170 pro
Corsair RM750
WD Green 2Tb

im thinking of either buying a new WD Black or Seagate SSHD for storing my games and using WD green as a videos, files storage

or buying another WD Green and do a Raid

Please give me some advice based on my options or feel free to guide me
Thank you for taking your precious time reading this tread, it would be a great help for me!

WD Green + RAID (of any type) = DO NOT DO THIS.

A WD Black will work for your needs. Continue to use the Green as static file storage.

I highly recommend a Western Digital Black for your data drive. They have the best long-term performance of any consumer grade HDD and come with a 5 year warranty.

WD green drives often have issues from their power saving features and are not known to be as reliable for data storage. Green drives are also just about the worst drive you could choose to use in a RAID group.
