Easy to set up as external SATA back up drive, low noise, no clicking or vibration. Temps are steady and Ok. Have not had any trouble with Seagate drives from 500Gb, 1Tb, 2Tb, 3Tb, 4Tb, and now 8Tb. All are still doing great and Crystal Disk shows them as GOOD with no problems. Have been using Seagate since my first computer build. Was well packaged.
I have 3 Synology DS1819+ RAID boxes. Two have six 8TB Ironwolfs, and the other has eight 6TB Ironwolf drives. I feel pretty well protected with this setup!
fast and lots of cache
- Fast for Magnetic Drive - Quiet
The Western Digital drives work great. I use them almost exclusively in my Freenas box.
Nice enclosure, quiet and fast enough (likely USB limited). Well packaged, and formatted ExFAT. Was going to reformat to NTFS, but Apple PCs also handle ExFAT format. Tools were provided. Great Product!
Top notch performance for a spinning disk drive Built a massive 60TB array in just a couple days through USB 3.0 (that's pretty good) These don't seem to be the green drives that can corrupt RAID arrays They do power down by my RAID enclosure's instructions, but power up quickly when commanded to do so One bad drive out of five, but replaced by Newegg with a good one one
Love the capacity - cannot wait for the future 30TB hard drives but for now this is the biggest consumer drive possible.
4TB of space Pretty fast It is a CMR drive, not the cheaper SMR. Doesn't get hot at all, just warm to the touch & stays warm inside my case.
Seems to be working great so far.
Inexpensive
Quiet and reasonably fast.
Volume, price, brand great packaging
- $0.0169975 per gigabyte - Quiet operation - Thinner than older drives gives better air flow
Great service by Newegg, very professional. 10 Stars
-the CMR is more expensive than the other western digital of same size, but faster. -Peek speed with multiple files I hit 200mb/s
Bought this for my son to use on his Xbox one 5 months ago and still works great.
Two Seagate Ironwolf Pro 22TB. Raid 1 in Asustor AS6704T NAS. Glad to have the redundancy.
