Seagate Barracuda :-( Not suitable as a raid drive.
Not suitable as a ...drive.
That model is literally the only hard drive in the world to get its own
Wikipedia article[1] for its awful reliability.
Well, I've got two of them, and they've been very reliable. Bear in mind
that that batch was just after the floods that disrupted production, I
suspect that quality slipped because demand was excessive. Later
production seems to have been fine. Barracudas generally are just crap
for raid.
