I think that it would be interesting to share information in this post of different HDD which we have tried in order to know if they are supported or if there were problems…

Your post should look like this :


For me (compared to the original Hitachi) :

Tested@
Model: SEAGATE 7200.10 - ATA 500 Go -16 Mo -7200rpm
Ref : ST3500630A
Capacity : 500Go
Firmware: 1.0.4.6 (Kfurge Custom)
Device : Working
Noise without access : Disappointing there is a whistling
Noise with access : Good not noisy
Heat without access : Hot
Heat with access : Very very hot !
Recommanded : NO

After 1 month when i did a big files transfert the HDD became very hot and it went in security mode because of the temperature and broke down !!!

The store accepts to change it for another reference...
Which reference do your recommend me ?
Maybe i will take the HITACHI Deskstar T7K500 - 500Go - 7200 t/m because i see it has a TFC (Thermal Fly-height Control)...
Has anyone already tested it?

Thanks
