jk336699 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Hey guys, what is the most reliable harddrive out there? Is SSD more reliable? I'm looking for a drive for 24/7 p2p file downloading and sharing and found this Is it just a rip-off or what? Anyway, tell me the most reliable harddrive or raid setup! I dont have much money to spend...maybe 80bucks?! Thanks in advance!=) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Slayer Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 There really isn't one drive thats more reliable than another, they're all about equally reliable. For just a P2P file sharing drive, a 5400rpm drive should be fine. $50 for a 500gb drive is a bit much when you can get a 1tb drive for $5 less. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136826. For what you need, an SSD won't be very cost effective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk336699 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 how about graping 2 decertified drives and run them in raid 1? Then, if one drive happen to fail, i can recover with another one...right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
