As far as NAS are concerned how are the AMD ones compared to similarly speced or priced intel ones? Though the similarly speced Intel one seemed to be like twice the price. I know Intel blows AMD out of the water normally on processors but as far as which ones are put into these NAS the...

Well when I say HGST I am talking the NAS specific ones that they make.

Pretty much narrowed my choices down to these 2 and seems 6 one way half a dozen the other. Any anecdotes or suggestions between the two? looking at their 4-6 TB models.
