Pipeline HD in RAID 5

Options

‎02-06-2012 03:09 AM

I've been searching all over but couldn't find any reasonable answer as to how would Pipeline HD drives (such as ST2000VM002) perform in a RAID 5 environment in a media server/storage server box. The request from my customer is to have 4 x 2TB in a striped RAID 5 and I was wondering whether I should go for the Pipelines or the Green Barracudas. 

 

Any suggestions?

But I don't need a high performance raid 5.

 

I need a RAID5 for backup to disk, it's only works a few hous per day.

 

I need cheap and green solution.

 

 

Thanks
