[QUOTE="Jaspion, post: 550815, member: 8794"] Hi guys, I've got a question regarding HDDs. I'm interested in buying a new HDD for my desktop computer, and I found this HGST HUA723020ALA641 for a good price. ([URL='https://www.hgst.com/search/node/HUA723020ALA641']info[/URL]) My research shows me that HGST make the most reliable HDDs today, however this is a server HDD, and I'm wondering if the reliability for 24/7 use would be just as good for desktop use, i.e. much more frequent powering on-off (at least once a day). Do you guys have any experience with this, or have you got any information as to whether purchasing this model for desktop use is a good idea? [/QUOTE]
