Since we talk a lot about storage here I wanted to talk a little bit about a good storage story. I've been running a Synology DS1511+ for about 9 1/2 years. I looked at my raid health statistics yesterday and noticed that my drives (2 parity drives for additional redundancy) have been in this set running for 83,229 hours, Approximately 9 1/2 years. The drives are 3 TB Hitachi HGST which I have always found to be very reliable, as this set shows. Two of the drive have only 76,336 hrs as I did have an early 2 drive failure less than a years after the original installation of the NAS. I was still able to do a manual back up to USB of all the data add 2 new drives and create a new raid. This is the set that is currently running 24/7 and still going strong. This unit is used for Mixed storage mostly music, and some video, serving a home network. What are your good storage stories?
