notter 0 Posted October 28, 2012 Hey folks, I have a question about a replacement HD for my DVR. Last week I purchased two WD RED WD20EFRX drives, anticipating to add it as an extra storage for pre-installed WD20EARS. However, over the weekend, before I even had the chance to install my new HD's the WD20EARS crashed, and since I'm only at the sight on weekends I didn't notice this until yesterday. On to my question are the WD20EFRX sufficient and reliable enough to use as primary storage? Should I purchase a WD Black HDD for primary storage or anyone here have enough experience with WDRED to give some assurance with RED as primary storage? Thnx.

notter 0 Posted October 28, 2012 Do you have a list of recomended HDD? Samsung? WD? Seagate? Looking for 2TB. I would like to use the Red's for NAS, but atm my hands are tied with WD20EARS going down and until I can find a more reliable HDD for primary storage. Thanks!
