Default Re: Help with 4000 upgrade

Hitachi had low amp draw .... and the newer .10 (perp) drives if I recall.

How much capacity difference between raid 1 and a 3 disk Raid 5 ?????

You can always put the drives in a old PC and run FreeNAS in raid 5. The only problem is it's still beta, with limited support.
