RE3 Drives, a little help please.......

I am about to order 3 of these HD's for a Raid setup on a new build:

My question is, which I can't find an answer for:


do any of you know if I changed my mind and wanted to just use these drives as stand alone units instead of in a Raid set up would that be ok or would these drives not like working alone?

Thanks for any help / comments

No they are fine as stand alone drives. They are basically normal drives that are rated for more intense use. (Bizarrely when I have bought 24-7 drives in the past they have ended up lasting less time than normal ones but that is just a funny coincidence).

Yep they'll be fine.

Thank you for you help, I will get them and start to build the new beast!!

What are you doing RAID 5?
