Yes, that's a nice drive. But total overkill for these purposes. You are mostly paying for the 15K RPM as opposed to 7200 RPM - completely unnecessary for this purpose. That drive is used in servers in enterprise data centers very high performance (speed) needs of a data center typically running large databases with thousands of users. Just try to find a workstation that has a SAS 600 controller card.
Again, for the typical photographer on this forum, who might run to backup drive for 10 minutes a day, the drive I suggested is perfectly adequate when used in sets of 3.
If you insist on using the drive you suggested, they you need to compare it to the absolute highest standard for archiving film.
