“but thought it necessary”
If you were using Premiere or Avid, you probably would need raid.

hey John, i’m trying to decide on a 2TB drive for media/render, is the WD RED NAS series ok? Its the same price as the WD Black 1TB.. would the Seagate 2TB be ok? That too is the same price.

The WD RED NAS series are built for Network Attached Storage or RAID and I have 4 x 3TB ones in my 9TB RAID 5. They are designed for 24/7 use so they cost a little more. The WD Blacks are perfect for video editing because they are high performance drives. I don’t use Seagate so I don’t know anything about their series. I’ve been using Western Digital for years now and have no complaints. I use a WD Green for my stock media, WD Black for editing, and WD RED in my RAID.
