Hello ! I have a custom build NAS currently using 4x6TB hard drives in RAID10. I am looking for a capacity upgrade. My main focus are low power consumption and low noise (the NAS is in my living room / home office).
I can’t seem to find any 5400RPM HDD over 8TB in capacity anywhere. Is there any model with 10, 12 or more TB in existence ? If not, what could be the reasons ?
Modern drives don’t have acoustic settings anymore.
oof, I have to upgrade one of my drives then, since those options are showing in the drive config. But yeah, my newer drive has this option greyed out. Only performance vs power saving is and adjustable slider on the new ones. Interesting thing is google says that article was from September 2023, so it is quite out of date then.
