I’d love to do all the German reels, but I don’t currently have the extra 15TB or so storage available. I’m currently running without a backup of the ESB UK reels, prints are annoyingly large lumps of data once they are scanned.
Do you have a HDD brand of choice?
WD Black, the 5 or 6TB models, or Toshiba 7200RPM drives are the only ones that haven’t given grief so far, all the other models I have tried have crapped out on me one way or another.
For SSDs, the Samsung drives have so far been the most reliable, although I’d love to try out WD’s new SSD, the 8TB Ultrastar SN200!
