Great. I guess if I were doing a strict cost/benefit analysis, the SATA 1TB drives would come out a little bit on top (since they're so cheap), but when a little extra performance matters but you can't afford the ridiculous prices for 10k/15k drives, they work very well. Besides, we have lots of experience working with Seagate for well over a decade.

Overall, the 1TB SAS drives work very well and are much cheaper comparatively than any other SAS drive. They also have 32MB of cache, which is more than other SAS drives.
