Mr. eBay Pro, you couldn't find any decent priced ones there?

I found this Hard Drive on sale at staples

I am using them in a NAS so 5400rpm is fine

No issues? Maybe I'll setup WHS with Drive Extender and stick a couple of these in...

So far... I set it up a couple of hours ago. I am using RAID 1 config.

The Drives are Western Digital, which is a big reason why I chose this one. I formatted them, and its working perfectly fine.

I installed WHS a while ago... I didn't like it to much, it doesnt support terminal clients, so it basically "hogged" the computer I installed it on.
