I have the following drives in 2 NAS setups
Setup 1 (Raid6 ~10TB usable space):
5x Seagate 3TB ST3000DM001
1x WD Red 3TB WD30EFRX
Setup 2 (Raidz1 ~10TB usable space):
4x WD RE 4TB WD4000FYYZ (all are "re-certified" drives sent to replace some old failed 2TB RE drives)
I only really need 1 of these setups, but I need ~10TB of space. Which would you keep?
I am leaning towards keeping the 4TB drives unless I find a convincing argument to keep with the 3TB ones..
