G-Tech G-Speed vs. OWC Thunderbay 4
I need help. I can’t decide between brand name or not??
It’s between this

and this
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc…b_4_x_6tb.htmlor this
I was looking into getting the enclosure and drives separate. Although the 24Tb version does come with Seagate Enterprise Drives. Was looking at getting these instead – Western Digital 6TB https://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc…82E16822236970or would it be better to get these? I honestly don’t know the difference??
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc…9SIA2F83Z25866I can get double the storage for the same price with the major difference being that the OWC is a software raid 5(from what I understand.) All the reviews on both products seem great so it’s making the decision harder.
Looking for any insight. Thanks!!

Hi,
We have 3 of the thunderbay softraid 5 drives on Mac Pros. Reads and Writes are at ~500/MBs.
I recommend Hitachi drives.
Good luck!
