We've been running the 251Mb Hitachi drives in 8 SS1+ for about 9
months without a failure.  These Hitachi drives generate a lot of heat
(I have a Maxtor 340 Mb drive in my SS1+ and it runs much cooler).  My
vote for the answer is only install one high capacity  drive and put
it in the center.

[I am not affiliated with either Maxtor or Hitachi in anyway,
but....the Maxtor drive (340Mb) is *incredibly* quieter than the 251Mb
Hitachi drives.  The 207Mb Maxtor is also much quieter.]
