A TLER disk is meant to be used in a RAID system.
Explaination: [link]
WDC's official line: [link]
Basically, the TLER is stupider and less robust about error recovery, since it assumes that the RAID controller will be handling that task.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

RE vs. SE? WTF?
I believe SE is a desktop line and RE is a server line and then there is SE16 for a 16 megabyte buffer as opposed to a 8 MB buffer.

Thanks Tom. I want to use the drive for backup, so it seems to be a bad choice. Looks like the 400GB Seagate is a better deal all around.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Cool. Replied.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Thanks. I just wanted to make sure it had gotten through given that I know rr has a big ol' filter.

I have 2.5GB drives that still work but I just don't have a use for anymore.
Does anything even fit on a 2.5 gig drive any more?
