I have a client who is ready to buy 2 more SAS harddrives for his Dell Server.

They sent me the Dell Quote... (Prices... or Overpriced prices in Canadian)

341-7412 1 1To 7,2K tr/min Near-Line SAS 3Gbps 3,5 pouce disque dur câblé, installé par le client $473.39

Or

341-9626 1 600Go 15K tr/min SCSI attaché en série 3,5 pouces disque dur câblé trousse client $767.40


But they don't say much about the brand.


I found the following, that look and sound perfect.


Seagate Constellation ES 2 TB 7200RPM those go for 300 to 400$...

However, I am wondering if the competition does the same, I have not been able to find any SAS drives from Western Digital...


Does Western Digital have 2TB Sas drives ?

If not, I am wondering if anyone has experienced or herd of the Seagate Constellation ES 2 TB 7200RPM
I ask because as much as I loved Seagate and my personal computer has a raid0 of 2x320gig Seagate SATA drives... I have seen too many 1tb+ or Laptop drives fail.
