iskout Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 I have 8 3TB drives no issues for me. The newer drives are reportedly "more reliable", but that report hasn't been doing me too many favors lately. I relied on it when I bought my ASRock, and I'm sorely disappointed.

Bosco Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Did it just up and die on you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Count yourself lucky. I'm still running 3 of them from back in 2004. Two of them have been on heavy-duty RAID use for at least 3 years now too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iskout Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Did it just up and die on you? My motherboard did... twice. I thought it was my PSU, but I've gotten another one and then tested my old OCZ ModXStream (after I bought the new one), and all voltages were almost perfect, and certainly well within reason. Even on my friend's rig under full load (Phenom II X4 965 @ 3.8 and HD 5770), his testing spots gave me very good voltage reports. I got my board back from RMA and it won't POST right off the bat. Or were you talking about Hitachi drives? I've never owned one, but I've had a few friends that got them with prebuilts, all of which have gone bad within a year and a half or so.
