They fail to run 24/7.
On User desktop:
High failure rate. My coowokers PC freezes at least 2 times a month. Plus everytime rebooting from failure, the Motherboard does not detect the HD. After letting the PC cool down for 1 hour, it gets recognized recognize it.
On Server:
Dropping the raid array at least 3 times a month. A nightmare for me. 2 Servers went down at the same time.
The models that I use are the 200GB SATA and 200GB SATA 3.0.
DiamondMax 10 Sucks. I got 6 200GB Sata 3.0 and they all sucks and fails. DiamondMax 9 is half good and half bad.
Both sucks miserably.
Solution:
For Desktop:
In the process of switching all the Maxtor HDs to Seagate HDs
For Server:
I went ahead and grabbed 2 Raptors 150GB (Raid 1) and 6 WD RE2 500GB (raid 10 + 2 JBOB).
Now everything works without flaw on the server.
Thumbs down for Maxtor. I wonder if Seagate quality will degrate after buying off Maxtor.
