OK, so I read the thread where a forum member (think is was chuckleb) had done some pretty extensive testing and was happy w/ these drives deeming them as solid to run in enterprise arrays. Found these over at 'theegg' @ $139 each and finally got tired of waiting for Ultrastar/Constellation ES, or the Toshiba SAS 4tb drives to come back down to reasonable prices and pulled the trigger on these. Ordered 4 as a trial run...hope I am not sorry. From what I understand these are WD RE drives.
