I need to know what kind of hard drive I need to get for D-Link DNS-323. i prefer 2 of 1.5TB, total of 3TB of hard drive space.
My personal choice would be for Western Digital green series drives
7200 RPM drives with as large a CACHE as possible would be the main part of my specs.
Faster speeds are becoming available but they are still quite new technology so just for now you might want to cross them off the list too
Seagate has taken some hits recently with firmware issues so for the moment they would not be on my list either
SATA interface hard drives ar the only ones supported by this unit so other than what I have said the choice is quite large.
Testimonial: "This is definitely helpful. Any good place you recommend for me to purchase the whole unit + the hard drives? [email protected]"
AH where to buy ?
That depends on where in the world you are but my own choice is from a good local parts wholesale shop.
Don't be put off by the word wholesale many of them will deal with individuals and smaller purchases.
The savings can be pretty good.
Next stop would be Ebay and a reputable seller with plenty of good ratings. Again the savings can be superb.
I live in Canada now but get ebay parts from China and Australia on a regular basis (do watch currency conversions though and possible customs duties). So many chinese suppliers offer free postage It makes you wonder how they can make any money on some things?
So now you are into Tiger direct and those types. Beware many of these guys no longer have good prices and with tiger watch out for rebates (or lack of when you send them in)
last is usually your big box stores
Quite a few options but I hope the advice is useful.
