• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Help with hard drive problem

1st test the drives with the WD LifeGuard Tools for any problems
then run them for a while and log the SMART attributes HDD Health (Freeware)
a SMART monitoring utility

all else being equal, you need to weight the potential money to be made for a given drive against its total capcity, and then heavily favor the one with the warranty

the SATA drives are going to have a very slight efficiency advantage (note thats efficiency not performance) but they will have a massive advantage in data integrity (all else being equal)
