    Great product but not discrete
    Quality product but it was not shipped in a plain box that hid what it was. It was shipped as seen in the pics with a shipping label placed on the retail box, meaning anyone who drove by my house could see a new hard drive sitting on my porch until I came home from work to bring it inside and anyone who encountered it during shipping knew exactly what it was. Considering I've had drives disappear during shipping before I was kind of surprised this was shipped in this manner. Other than that it was as advertised and works as expected as a replacement for a failed drive in my NAS.

    Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2024
    Capacity: 8TBStyle: 256 MB CacheVerified Purchase
    My level with servers is that of an absolute amateur. I don't need instantaneous speed, high uptime, or needing to handle high loads during a peak time. I use my NAS as a repository to stream movies on plex occasionally, store home photos and videos, and back up phone data across my family.

    While I cannot speak for those with more nuanced intricacies, I can highly recommend this for those at my level - to those who dabble in storing family data. The high storage capacity is perfect for RAID arrays, which has already helped once when an older drive failed due to other hardware difficulties. The rebuild was flawless. In addition, even when bulk information goes through the drives, the drives are never that loud. It's great for home use and is barely even noticeable.

    5/5 for surviving consistent uptime, good data storage for the price, and being low volume.

    Capacity: 10TBStyle: 256 MB CacheVerified Purchase
    Replace an SSD and a SATA drive with this one and I gotta say it's pretty good. I can't really say anything about noise since my office has a few systems with audible fans which I wouldn't say are loud but definitely not completely quiet. Transferring big files like zip or iso are really fast and big groups seems fast as well. Happy with the price and performance so far.

    Update... Was making a sound but I noticed it stopped when I held down my PC. So it seems like the drives rotates really fast and if parts in your case are just a little loose you will hear some noise. I opened up my case made sure everything around the drive was secured and so far no loud noise.

    5.0 out of 5 stars WD Red for the Win
    Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2023
    Capacity: 4TBStyle: 256 MB CacheVerified Purchase
    I have always used the WD Red drives in my servers and NAS units since they brought them out...this is going all the way back to the WHS 2011. They are good drives, economically priced and last for ever in the right conditions. I recently migrated over from a WHS box to a WD server, and these were the natural choice for it. They were recognized immediately and set up quickly in the WD server. As I monitor the health, there have been no critical issues for the drives in the 7 months they've been in the WD server. I recently added two more 4TB drives in the Raid 1 function, which now gives me 8TB of secure and stable storage. This matches the level of performance that my original 4- 1TB Red drives I had in my WHS 2011 server, which to this day, is still showing as healthy in the pooled drive array as reported in the SMART monitoring.

    I have a NAS in my house for storing various things and this HDD specifically is the go to for that function. They last a long time and never give me any problems. I would always recommend a Red drive for almost anything.

    The only better ones would be purple I would guess but I have not had to try them to find out since these are so great.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent backup NAS drives
    Reviewed in Canada on March 14, 2024
    Capacity: 8TBStyle: 256 MB CacheVerified Purchase
    I’ve been a long time fan of Western Digital hard drives and have never really had any luck with seagate drives. I ordered 4 of these to replace my 8 year old Western digital 4TB NAS drives to expand my exploding digital footprint. They are still running in perfect working order. I must commend amazon on the packaging and delivery. I was a bit concerned after reading some older reviews. As you can see from the pictures, they were securely packaged up well.

    The drives themselves have passed extensive read/write tests without so much as a hiccup. One thing to note however, is that this hard drive tends to be a little nosier. More than likely due to additional platters compared to the 4TB variant. Also important to clarify that this review is for the CMR version.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent backup NAS drives
    Reviewed in Canada on March 14, 2024
    I’ve been a long time fan of Western Digital hard drives and have never really had any luck with seagate drives. I ordered 4 of these to replace my 8 year old Western digital 4TB NAS drives to expand my exploding digital footprint. They are still running in perfect working order. I must commend amazon on the packaging and delivery. I was a bit concerned after reading some older reviews. As you can see from the pictures, they were securely packaged up well.

    The drives themselves have passed extensive read/write tests without so much as a hiccup. One thing to note however, is that this hard drive tends to be a little nosier. More than likely due to additional platters compared to the 4TB variant. Also important to clarify that this review is for the CMR version.

    HDDs are starting to get expensive again. We picked this up on sale to expand our Plex server size. No problem, easy install and quick format.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent NAS Box Drives

    I've used WD drives for years, and when I bought an AUSTOR NAS box, these were the ideal drives for it. I've had them for a couple of years now in the Box, and have had 0 issues with them. These drives are hard to come by, after the WD fiasco with NAS box drive types a few years back, but they are still the gold standard as far as I'm concerned. Read and write access through a 2.5GB connection is fast, even in Raid10.
    Overall, these drives are great for NAS and highly recommended if you can find them!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable and great performance

    I already bought a the same disk 3 years ago and it still going strong, performance is rock solid, so I wanted to go with the same disk again. The disk was tested fully in single mode and raid configuration and it meets my expectation fully

    Pro:
    - CMR disk so its suitable for NAS
    - Reliable for long time usage
    - Sequential write performance between 200-83MB/s depending on the region being written (The farther away from the inside of the disk platters you go, the higher the velocity of the head thus resulting in faster speed)

    Con:
    - tends to get hot so need proper ventilation
    - 5700 rpm compared to the red prod wich is 7200
    - warranty is only 3 years for the red pro compared to 5 years for the Red pro
