I had a NAS drive fail. Was having a battle with the vendor and HDD manufacture about a warranty replacement. I bought this to quickly (new egg shipped it immediately) resolve the issue until I sorted things out with the manufacture and vendor. Still not sorted out after a couple of weeks of back and forth, but good news is this drive is working great.

worked great!

-Work well -quiet -should be reliable based on past experiences

Works well, runs cooler than it competitors.

Easy to install, work has expected.

This SATA drive is priced at an excellent cost. Installation was easy. Shipping was quick. I have always had excellent experiences in doing purchasing products at Newegg. They are awesome!

One of largest drives on the market. Meant for 24/7 operation. Quiet. Works well in my NAS. No errors found on drive.

Very fast shipping arrived in 2 days Well packaged with heavy bubble wrap and sealed new Zero hours of run time when received CrystalDiskMark test looked clean Handled ~18 hours of continuous file copying without issue Excellent capacity for large storage needs


Works well with Truenas.

Had to send one faulty drive back for replacement. The other three, after a long format, formatted greatly. Populating the other three now with data. Superb so far. The replacement for the faulty drive is on the way via Newegg. An excellent company! The quick turn around is fantastic. Can't wait to get all the drives finished.

Great Price

8tb hard drive that works

Large capacity drive

-Transfer rates are good - average a little over 200MB/s, drive to drive on the same LSI HBA on Unraid if it matters. -Temperature is good - average 30C in a 20C room during continuous transfer of files, about the same as a 6TB (WD6003FFBX), and about 5C lower than a 10TB (WD102KFBX). Idle temp is ~26C. This drive and comparables are in the same server/array. - Noise is relatively low, about the same as a 6TB and noticeably more quiet than the 10TB. - Cost per TB is good when on sale, very close to the largest 18-22TB rate.

Has 20TB Worked when I got it

Quiet, I didn’t notice any sound coming from it while under full load. Fast, rated at 269MB/s Best price per TB Energy-Assisted Magnetic Recording (EAMR) Triple State Actuator (TSA) Helioseal 5 year warranty

Just what I wanted.

- for the size and tasks required of them, I can't even hear them working.

This drive is fast, has excellent firmware, and is helium filled. I actually spoke with a firmware developer at WD and he said this is the drive to get (or a larger model).
