1000GB G Raid 2 1TB Reviews
Bottom line -these things do bite the dust. It is a great price and good storage, and when my GRAID2 failed, the company said they would send me a new one right away. But I will not trust it solo anymore - now I am going to have to buy another drive to back up my backup. At these prices it's probably still a good investment, but I wanted to warn the potential buyers that my first drive failed me and I lost 55 hrs of video (and hours of blood/sweat and tears over my video project) overnight.
No issues. Zero latency. Reliable. Fast. We're a professional video production company and this has been one great drive.
i recommend these to everyone i know these are great hard drives. i have an arsenal of them. one of them failed me, but it was right away so i returned it to Amazon who gave me no grief and now i'm happy happy happy.
I was concerned about the noise factor after reading some of the reviews, but honestly, this drive is quieter that all of my other drives. sweet. a perfect combination with Time Machine. Seamless.
I now own 4 of these hard drives. Video is the most demanding use of any hard drive and these drives have done an outstanding job. I use them for storing my video clips while using FCP. Also I do not find them to be that noisy, in fact they are quieter than most drives. I have been using these drives for about 2 years and plan to buy more.
