System Specs

As I've said a half dozen times, something sucks ass about all HDD brands out there. Samsung/seagate rely way too much on error correction. WD gives you truly unacceptable noise levels, and hitachi always seems second or third best at whatever they do. Last drive that hit all the marks for me were the WD 640 drives. No scary smart data shit, quiet, good access time. These 3 TB seagate XTs I have are fast and dead silent but the error rates still bug me. Luckily I have two mirrored.
