Looking to get a couple of new drives to save me any more grief in the future.

One as my main backup drive, and the other to backup that :)

I'll want to put them in an external chassis too, so suggestions on those would be welcome!

The 1tb Hitatchi look like the drive, but not too sure from other threads.

All hard drives have good AND bad points. All will fail at some point. All opinions here will likely be different. Its not about reliability or performance, its about preference.
