Works Great On PC! :)

I haven't had it very long but it seems to work fine.

Arrived 2 days early, came in a retail box with mounting screws. It is now chugging along happily in a Linux media server 24/7.

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.)

Good SSD cooler with one caveat. Comes with several heat pads of different thickness and even includes a mini screwdriver. Installing a single-sided SSD will have no issues whatsoever.

I probably have 20 of these drives that are 20TB or bigger. Due to work they are the "floppy drives" of the 2020s.

- Capacity - Speed - Buffer size - Reliability

most trusted HDD


By MB, the cheapest and reliable HD in the market Will last many years of constant use

Works with USB 3.1 Type A and Type C ports. Extremely fast transfer rates when connected to a USB 3.1 Gen 2 port. Heat sink works well to dissipate heat from the NVMe. Very easy to assemble.

Great price when on sale. Huge capacity. Arrived well packaged.

Honestly for the price, I thought I'd give it a go. My system doesn't have "rgb puke" so this adds nicely to it. Doesn't interfere with the AIO pump or swapping CPU/repasting.


I'm using this drive on a machine with steam and have my games loaded on it. It's running nice and cool and games load pretty quickly for the specs being 5400rpm, but I assume the large 64mb of cache is helping with that. The fact that this drive is meant for security, which tend to run 24/7, means that this should prove to be more reliable than most drives. I'm very happy with the current price of it and is great for the storage and performance provided.


Delivery was must quicker than anticipated


These WD HDD's are for my security system servers and they usually last five to eight years. I prefer to buy from Newegg because I still remember they were the first company to really step up the game, and send my stuff the very next day as promised. Way before am zon, who is just out to put the other guy out of business. Newegg never has sent me junk parts, and has always been my PC parts shipper choice.

No regrets!! Worth every penny.
