Hey guys, I've been searching around but have some quick questions. I have to protect against HD failure as I have a huge media/movie collection at home. I'm gonna build and run Win7 on a home server i'm building. I'm just wondering what is some good free software that manage a raid 1 array and alert of me of a failure and allow me to rebuild easily? Is there any software that will manage raid and have some HD health diagnostics build into it? I was just gonna run the Windows 7 out of the box raid software, as really I just need something basic
And now for the HD's, wondering if i should go Green or Red WD's. I heard Reds support TLER but i'm not sure if that means anything or would matter to me. I'm looking at 4TB drives the price diff is about 25 per drive.
