half of the drives in my server are SG, the other half are WD, I’ve had to replace more then twice as many WD than SG over an equal time, however, I have had 2 SG start to fail after just a few months, where as the quickest WD was 8 months, no lost data, just some corruption that was fixable. WD RMA is easier then SG, but SG are much quieter.

also, one of my 120 gig WD just passed 3.6 years of power on hours
