I think the problem is specific to certain drives, as you can see in the article linked to in the post. So, if your Raptor isn't one of those, it'll likely works.

Problems with the drive seem to happen during aggressive transfers, which might be why you haven't had issues before.

Personally, I'd go with either Seagate "Nearline" or Maxtor MaxLine III drives. Both are server rated with long MTTFs and better guarantees...
