Desktop RAID 1. Red or Black Drives?

If you ignore the RAID and NAS features, the Red drives are more comparable to the Green drives. They are fine for low performance, but also low noise and temperature operations.

However, for video editing you need more speed and need more Workstation-like features. Since it is a simple disc-to-disc mirror, you can run Black, but I would rather use the Se (or even the Re). They are essentially Blacks, but designed for RAID setups. Just beware that they are much hotter than the Red/Green drives so provide good airflow for them.
