I have a 3.5" HHD DAS which needs populating. Based on my interaction with these products over a period of 10 yrs I have decided to go with SeaGate. I am interested in 2TB capacity drives and for my personal reliability preference ....I've chosen the EXOS series of drives. I know its way overkill, but for me it's a culture that I've used for many years in most of my lifestyle.
The interface is SATA. Now Seagate from viewing has multiple Exos drives with varying letter designates. I chatted with one online assistant and she was able to explain at least the 512 N & 512 e abbreviations. I eventually got that. However, I am seeing on various sites selling these drives various descriptions for the apparently same appearance drive.
Assist me in acquiring the correct 2-4TB Exos drive for a SATA interface 4 Bay DAS. Amazon has it as 512e & Seagate has it listed as 512N. Dont want to buy the wrong one.
