BEST SELLERS

In Hard Drive

8TB at a (now) good price, perfect upgrade to an NVR. Arrived promptly and well packaged.

Its a great price for a great drive. A lot of storage, works really well. Thank you!

Seagate drives have always performed well for me and I expect that to still be true. I bought these 2 drives from Newegg and a third from another vendor. All installed and are running just as I expected.

Great storage size for the price. Using it now for periodic offline backups. Sustained backup speeds still at 200 MB/s after a month of use. I did place this drive in a USB 10 Gbps external enclosure which shouldn't be a bottleneck for the transfer speeds (but you may see better performance directly on a SATA interface)

big space for lots of video and pictures

Comes with worldwide plug adapters. Definate plus. Plug and play for the win.

Cheap price Large capacity for the price Fast sequential read/write

fast and lots of cache

Two Seagate Ironwolf Pro 22TB. Raid 1 in Asustor AS6704T NAS. Glad to have the redundancy.

perfect for NAS. I don't really need the AI function in the drives they sit in a UNIFI protect set up. I have the 24TB one in my home protect set up and initially it was loud, but it has become more quite since it finished it originally set up. I have 8 of the 8TB drives with no issues. 2 are cold spares. when they go in I'll order 2 more. I take the drives that are out of warranty and typically put them in our 3rd tier backup NAS systems and they seem to live forever. Technically out of "service life" but that doesn't mean I take them offline, I stick them into a lower use environment to live out their days storing old accounting stuff. Nothing as exciting as VIDEO

Good performance under stress

was on sale seems a lot more quieter then my old seagate drive

quality drive. Fast.

Way more storage than what I actually need, but it's still better to have too much than not enough.

I use these for everything, have several. Kinda no brainer but do not drop from high place. On slight upside the one I did drop still works, just occasionally stops and disconnects randomly. Still use it for temp file transfers.

Cheap. Quiet. Holds a lot of DATA.

Keeping in line with Western Digital’s other newer drives, this one is a lot quieter in terms of vibration. Speeds are pretty decent overall and on par with what I would expect (see other for speeds). Cheaper than the Red drives with most of the benefits. These drives don’t appear to experience the same slow spin-up that some full on NAS drives do. 1TB drives are extremely cheap these days so you can buy a bucket load of them compared to even a few years ago.

The 6 TB version seemed like the best balance between price, size, performance and noise / heat. This is going in a 4 bay NVR which is in a very quiet environment. So far, these drives seem much quieter than the 7200rpm version (during seek) which are being swapped out 1 at a time to allow the RAID rebuilds to catch up. Temps are 10C lower than the 7200 pro version. (37C vs. 47-49C per SMART data.)

20Tb capacity and on sale at a reasonable price. CMR thus suitable for virtually all workloads. Be aware the Exos drives have a higher TBW rating (data transferred per year) so in some applications this MAY matter. In mine it doesn't. Plenty of experience with this series in different capacities, thus far no complaints or issues.
