And that gives me the answer to what I need to do later when I eventually replace the disks in my RAID1 setup. I have a spare box I can use.
On checking, I find that of the >5TB I have available in my existing array I'm only using <2TB of it anyway, just goes to show it's worth checking these things! So 2x3TB in RAID1 config gives me two spare drive bays to expand in future should I need to and is more cost effective. I've gone with Toshiba drives, whether or not that'll prove to be a good choice I have no idea (I don't use Seagate now that they only put 1yr warranty on them, so it was either Tosh or WD at the price point I was looking at).
