uhm, I am going to add harddisk tomorrow,
what do you think is the best for selection below?

Samsung Spinpoint f1 1TB x 2 units    RM310 each
WD Black 1TB x 2 units                      RM390 each
*
I would choose WD 1TB C.Black...Better performance or speed is required for high capacity hdd like 1tb...

After running for 2 weeks. If normal room temperature, expect the hard disk to run around 40c to 44c.

Compared with Blue power, its at least cooler by 2c to 3c.
*
Means that ur 1TB C.Black run more cooler than Blue?
That's good, i tot the black out perform the blue in term of speed only...
