WD20EFRX-68EUZN0 Raid 1 Configuration

I have looked high and low, found some information but would love some insight.  I have a small business server with two raid 1 arrays (OS and Data).  I wanted to use two Reds for the data in a raid 1 configuration with an lsi card.  Anyone had any experience with this?

Also, while I was in the process of testing the first two drives I bought I had one drive fail and the other start puking bad sector errors all over the place.  The RMA drives came with a different firmware (82.00A82).  Anyone know what the impact of the new firmware might be?

Just an update, the new drives are recertified nasware 3.0 drives so that explains the newer firmware.

Hello,
