This really isn't a FreeBSD question (I will use it for FreeBSD though),
but there seem to be people with lots of experience on this list...
The capella 2 gig will cost me around $800 and the grand prix 4 gig around
$1100. (This is in Sweden.)
Are those disks temperature/cooling sensitive? I have a fujitsu 2694esa
1 gig now and it gets hot as hell on warm days. I would like to get a disk
I can mount in my midi tower box without frying it..
Besides that, reliability and performance are the main issues.
I don't really need 4 gig right now, but the price difference is to small
to care very much about. (2 gigs extra for $300 seems cheap even if you
don't need it :-)
Thanks,
