Hey there everyone!
Need your expert opinion on this matter -
on Rig 2: (in member configuration)
I run programs such as AutoCAD 2010, Photoshop CS4, Maya 2010 all running on windows7 x64. I also game alot and am an audiophile - I also have an ever increasing number of downloadable content onto my drives.
Currently I have 1 Samsung 500GB HDD which houses all my programs, backup and music/movie collection.
I'm looking to expand my storage needs and was thinking of getting a pair of Seagate Barracuda ES.2 500GB drives - pardon me folks - I live in Bangladesh and this is the only enterprise drive I can get a hold of, and by that this is the only highend drive available. Another drive available now is the HD154UI 1.5TB samsung.
which way do I go?
I need to secure my downloads, music and windows backups. But also want a fast boot drive - thus looking at the ES.2's...but reviews on most sites indicate a drive failure in no more than a year
:S
Help! Please! Would i need a raid array to meet my needs?
