Hi All
I've got a Zyxel NAS 326. Okay, not the greatest but it was very cheap as the previous owner has gone over to a Synology 4 bay jobbie. I need two hard drives for it. I'm looking at fitting 2 x 2Tb drives, one mirroring the other. Everyone seems to recommend the WD Red series. Are they really worth the extra money? Looking on Amazon (got a £50 gift card so want to use them) the Reds work out at £141.60 for the 2 x 2Tb. WD Blue are £110.84 for the two and Toshiba P300 are a touch under £100 for the two. For the price of 2 x WD Reds I could get 2 x Toshiba 3Tb (£134). Anyone got any opinions on the Toshibas? What about the WD Blue? I've been warned to steer well clear of Seagate.
Looking forward to your advice
