New 14TB HD's


Recommended Posts

Picked up a pair of new WD DC HC530 14TB drives. Once finished with pre-clear, they will move into the parity slots. Preclearing per my usual process (3x cycles using the preclear plugin). I wasn't quite prepared for 1 cycle to take 58 hours (peak speeds at 261 MB/s, slowest at 146 MB/s - much faster than any of my current drives)

I'm actively trying to reduce the number of drives in my array and this should be a huge step in that direction.
