Hi Ken,
The drive that needs replacing is a WD Caviar Black from June 2010, and it is
still working fine, but is too small to handle my weekly backup and current
photo images. My 16MP Fuji RAF files appear as 25MB, and full-size TIFF files
appear as 95MB, so I'm adding about 14GB per week. And this is with an old
sensor! The newer cameras, with modern sensors, devour the space even faster.
My review of Newegg comments on WD Black 1-4TB was not encouraging. Some
comments were about overheating, and many, many were about noise. Others were
DOA. I'm still scratching my head.
