We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
Hello, i found a offering on Ebay for refurbished seagate enterprise capacity harddrives with a good price (12tb/120€).
Has anyone experience using these drives in a nas and would recommend them ? Or should I stay away?
I’m running a 4 bay nas with raid5.
Thanks.
Not with Seagates, but I've recently bought two refurbished 12TB drives to use in a Raid1.
I figured since they're in a RAID and there's gonna be a backup, I can take the risk.
