Solid Drive

- Formatted cleanly and no errors on extended drive test. - Added to existing array cleanly. - Have been consistently getting 6+ years out of IronWolf drives in 24x7 RAID environment for media server.

i got 3 of thies all work fine. 1 for my movie library, 1 for move drive back up, 1for back up of my d drive that helps to have back ups to much inf to lose.

Big Best bang for buck value Quiet. I've read reviews whining about noisy hard drives in NAS boxes. My NAS is currently on my desk. I can hear the drive working but they are not loud.

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

Cheapest 20tb+ external HD on the market per tb. Large storage size. Small physical size.

Works great, had a dead drive, but the three others I got were great. Trouble free replacement on the bad drive. Glad I bought from a reputable source.

Extra Warranty over Green and Blue drives. Passed my my pre-install tests, full surface scan, Smart check and 3 passes with PreClear Running in NAS for 1 month with no issues

Had a great deal for 279/ea Black Friday. Fast, perfect set of drives so far, just wish I could have bought 4 instead of the limited 2.


Non so far

Good capacity and pretty quite even under load.

240+MiB/s sequential write speed while connected to a USB3 dock. Came very well packaged.


Got these to increase storage size in my Synology NAS. Their list of recommended hard drives included the WD30EFRX, not the ZX, but I decided to chance it anyway and have had no problems. I swapped out a pair of 1 TB drives for a pair of these 3TB drives and the NAS server had no problems with the transfer even though it warned me these weren't "approved" drives. I've only had them for a few weeks so I can't say anything about long term reliability but so far they have done exactly what I wanted.

Arrived in working order and it's a good size.

No Problem with these drives. Plug them in, initialize, format and you're off and running. Great 5 year warranty and high duty cycle are the draws here.

It is faster than the internal drive it replaces.

- easy to install overall -20tb of space will set me up for years -sale price was 50% off

8tb hard drive that works
