Drive replacement question

Hello,

I have a lawyer client for many years now, Which I installed him a windows 7 based computer (AMD ATHON II 250/2GB/128GB SSD) as his main server which is connected via an S-box and a switch to another 11 computer in his office and all works well. He use it mainly as a file server and as an SQL server for a CRM his all office uses.
His database is growing quite fast (Used to be around 20GB 2 years ago - now it's almost 60GB since he started to add scanned documents into his CRM), And I don't like the idea that his SSD capacity now is over 50% because the short life cycle of SSD writing.
What I wanted to do is to turn his SSD to the main drive (only with the win7 OS) and to add another drive.
Now.....I changed his regular 500GB drive he had to SSD about a year ago, because I thought it would enhance the workstation speeds, but I was wrong. They barely noticed any change (His network is 100Mb network not 1Gb).
Now I thought about few options I have :

1. Barely used OCZ Deneva 2 C 240GB MLC drive which i got at a great price on ebay (it's an enterprise drive with lot of space and that has been used only for few weeks, BUT based on sandforce sf-2281 flimsy controller......Maybe the firmware is stable by now :
http://ocz.com/enterprise/download/firmware (Latest Firmware October 2012))
2. WD black 1TB 64mb cache drive
3. WD green 1TB 64mb cache drive (Intellipower RPM speed)

Smaller SSD is out of the question because of the wear factor, And I don't think he'll be willing to go for a more expensive drive.
What do you think will be best reliable drive for the needs of storing about 60GB of data that will prob. double itself to 100GB within the next year or two ?

Thank you,

H.

I wouldn't use WD at all, and especially the green one. It is slow
A 1 terabyte sata 3 Seagate is where i would go. Providing that you have
a sata 3 motherboard with the right sata 3 cables.
As for the SSD, OCZ had too many issues with their firmware in their older drives.
Likely its fine now but I would do a lot of testing first.
Off hand question, when you installed the 128 gig SSD for the server did you use ACHI?

Hi Ferrit :)

yes i did used AHCI :)
The board has sb750 chipset as i recall , So no sata 3.
I still fearful from the big faults with seagate 500GB drives series with the buggy firmwares back then.....And to add to it now their 1TB comes on ONE platter.....SCARY....., So maybe I'll go for the OCZ one after I'll play with it for a while, Or maybe a RAID 1 setup of regular 1tb disks

I never ever use anything but seagates.
They all have some failures and as such
we can expect some to die but nothing
compares to the rate that wd's fail.
And the buggy ocz's i wont use till i see
some seriously good reviews for an'
extended period.
Very happy using Adata and Crucial SSD's and
seagate harddrives

it's a bit ressuring to me that you had good experience with seagate, So i'll take it into account.
I've decided to go with Sil3132 pci-e raid card in raid 1 setup and 2X500gb seagate hard drive I have in stock.
Thank you for the help

Ferrit,

Since you are the AMD GUY, maybe you know.....Is there some way i can get emailed about Sb710 raid 1 errors ?
The raidxpert doesn't always opens (need to repair its installation every now and then) and it does not support SSL - So I can send email notifications to gmail.....
Tried HD sentinel 4.4 and Acronis drive monitor - But both of them couldn't get data from the raid setup....

Thank you
