HI, I'm updating my kids build for xmas. Currently I have a PoS Seagate 1TB hd that is having issues.
I've already bought a Crucial M500 240 Gig ssd.
I am also going to get an new HD to pair with it. The board is an Asus p8z68ProGen3.
I'm going back and forth between the WD Red or the Black. The Red is geared towards being used as part of a NAS system , while the Black is "high performance."
My question is since the Gen3 comes with "intel Smart Response Technology" which uses both drives according to need, presumably all high performance uses will be handled by the ssd.
So what are my needs realistically going to be for the secondary hd on this rig?
