WD Green or Red drives
Posted by: Dave The Bass on 22 January 2015
I'm probably going to get a QNAP TS-251 to host my music library, and will use Asset. I was wondering whether there was experience out there on using WD Green drives in a NAS as they are, allegedly, quieter. Is that true, and are they quick enough for streaming hi-res files? Otherwise I'll just go for the Red drives.
A reasonably quiet NAS would be good as it will sit in our family room. I have also looked at the HS-251 but all reports seems to show it as running very hot...
Any thoughts on this? Cheers. D
