Guys, do you know where I can find a simple and to the point hard drive interface comparison chart?
Ie, which interface is called what and how fast it is compared to the other and so on.
I'm getting ready to buy the Infrant ReadyNas NV+ and just wanted to do a little research before I buy the drives.
Sata is faster than ata and parallel ata?
What is Sata-300?
I was initially going to stick 4x750gb drives in a raid 1 configuration for around 2tb of storage but I'm having second thoughts.
The 750's will run me around 280-300 each but if I do 500's, I can get away with 150 each. That's about 600 in savings for 500gb..
Not sure if I need it or should get it?
I'm thinking that soon the 750's are going to go down as I think they'll release 1tb drives soon but then, if I get the 500's and then upgrade, what the hell do I do with the 500's?
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks
George
