I’m curious to know what other people are running for HD’s in white box systems? I’m currently looking at Seagate Barracuda’s and Hitachi Deskstars. I’m looking at the 1tb models. These will be attached to an LSI expander in a sc847e2 chassis driven by an LSI 9211-8i HBA. This system will be used as a large storage array for backups and archiving.

I wouldn't recommend using desktop drives in a server RAID. They can't
handle the vibrations well that are present in a server. I'd recommend
at least the Seagate Constellation or the Hitachi Ultrastar, though I
haven't tested the Deskstar myself.
