    Hard Drives: Search By Warranty

    We REALLY need to be able to search by warranty here:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/PowerSearch.aspx?N=2010150014&SubCategory=14&GASearch=3

     

    With Seagate rolling out 3 year drives instead of 5  year drives, WD rolling out 5 year drives instead of 3 year drives and Samsung rolling out 7 year RAID drives...  The whole hard drive market is getting confusing as heck.. Even for somebody who is trying to follow it from day-to-day...     Gone are the simple days when Seagate always beat everybody at warranty..


    Onboard RAID vs. 3Ware RAID

    I never recommend people run RAID-5 with onboard chipsets.

    Good point Sidicas

    the last time I chose between Seagate and WD, the Warranty helped my a lot. IF there is not any obvious difference between them, the 5 year warranty is always better.
