Re: Does anyone have the WD RE2 TLER enable/disable utility?

I understand stand the theoretical importance of disabling in a single drive config to minimize chance of data lost, but is there any performance increase or other benefit?

I have used raptors for years now without data loss, and backup my drives regularly -- but I am hesitant to make this change for some reason (although I love tweaking for no good reason).

I don't really notice any performance improvements with it enabled/disabled but you can always re-enable TLER using the TLER utility...so there's no real negative to trying it out and running some HD benchmarks
