Hi, I just started with my first unRaid server and so far its been great. This forum has been extremely helpful and spent a lot of time here !!! My first preclear just got completed , its WD RED 2TB NAS drive. When i looked at the report it seems to be fine, can someone please check and let me know if its really fine? I have combined all three reports in a single file.. Also have couple of questions, - How many preclear i should do ? 2 or 3? - Is it ok to run preclear again on the precleared disk? I mean i didn't use "c" function so by default preclear was done only once Thanks again for all your help....I really don't think i would have done anything without this forum...thanks to all... preclear_rpt.txt

Thank you , ok then it has to be WD Green or Seagate !!!!

Hi anyone, can you please let me know a good alternate for WD? reviews in newegg and other places are scaring me....any good alternates?

Thanks, is there any other good alternate for WD drives....?

Hi, I am newbie to unRaid and just started purchasing components for my unRaid build. So for have got the following components, - Asus P8B75-M LE Mobo - Intel i3 2100T CPU - Corsair CX500 builder series - Antec 902 V3 mid tower case - G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) PC RAM (F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL) (Had it already) Thanks to all the folks in this forum I was able to select all hardware going through the forum so for. But Hard drive has stumped me completely. I can see there is no clear winner by going through the post. I live in India and my options are limited, I would love to get WD Red but its not available at this time here in India. Hitachi 5K3000 is also not available. So can you please suggest some good HDD based on your experience, I am planning to run unRaid 5 and if there is a good 3TB drive would like to use it for parity. But reliability is more in 2TB would stick with it...Enterprise HDDs are very expensive and I am worried about WD green drives due to their LLC problem... Please let me know and thanks in advance.
