Hello all. I have 2 raid cards - an ARC1220 and an ARC1210. I'm not using the 8 port version much anymore, as I've moved to a seperate Unraid box.
I am still using the 4 port in my desktop though. I'm just about out of space; it's currently using 4x 750gb drives.
This black friday, I picked up a pair of 3TB seagates from Newegg. Specifically, the 7200.14 ST3000DM001 . I was wondering, is there anything special I need to do to format these drives to build an array with them? These will be the first Advanced Format drives I'll be adding to an Areca card, and also the first to break the 2tb barrier as well.
