The drives are WD Green units which are reasonably power saving, but they do the control themselves as I didn't want to risk driver issues. They have turned out to be reasonable for the money (the existing 2tb's are WD Green and have served about 18 months with no issues) but with the price hikes it will be another two months before I am able to replace the whole set.

So one external drive is on the Esata and the other is on the USB channel, but still working as a mirrored ZFS set for backup purposes. It's a shame as the USB link is doubling the backup time.
