Reliability issues?: Samsung EcoGreen F2 1.5TB

iCe-BLaZeD · 11 Jul 2009 at 02:24

Hey guys, sorry if there has been topics in the past about this as i realise seagates drive problems may have sparked off 1.5TB drive discussion but I was wondering has anyone known of any issues regarding the Samsungs EcoGreen F2 1.5TB drives?,

im looking to replace most if not all my 1TB drives in the next 6months with at least 1.5TB drives possibly 2TB if prices were to drop majorly (i doubt they will)

Cheers

Nothing so far. But it's a new drive and too early too tell.

I purchased two and one unfortunetly arrived with dead/damaged sectors. The other one is part of my back up solution, and although it's only a week old, it's so far has given me no problems.

I have two of them, no problem so far. I am going to have them running normally for couple more weeks, then I will put them in RAID0 mode...

I've had 2 installed for the last week, again a little early to tell but they seem just fine. Nice and quiet too.
