I'm building a new system and was wondering if the Seagate issues have been
solved with the drives dying. Does Seagate have different drives for using in a
Raid? I've seen that Western Digital and Samsung do have Raid class drives, but
I don't see anything about Seagates. Are Seagates currently still the best bet
for internal? I'm planning on putting 4 of these in my system running Raid 5.
Thanks,
