I heard that 1TB drives die quite quickly, is this true? Seagate have 5 yr warranty though, but it is annoying to send it back n fourth. I would probably use the 1TB hard drive in a external enclosure. Should i get 1tb or should i get something smaller like 750 or 500?
ty
edit: also are there NAS enclosure?

Previous Maxtor 1 Tb externals have had thermal management issues.

If it wasnt for bad luck, Id have no luck!

I've not heard of any issues with the 1TB WD GreenPower or Samsung F1 drives, I know that much.
