Looking to add new hard drives to my WHS box.
Firstly I have no problems with using Seagate drives. I have used them for years, and never had any problems. So with that out of the way....
What would people recommend....
"New generation" 7200.12, currently 1TB £84.17 £0.0842 per GB
OR
"Old generation" 7200.11 currently 1.5TB £109.68 £0.0731 per GB
Cost is an issue for me, though not massively; I could afford 3 X 1TB drives or 2 X 1.5TB drives.
I'm swinging toward the newer 7200.12 drives but wary of the extra space afforded by using 1.5TB
Pros and cons please.
