Big and solid!

  • Gigantic storage space
  • According to many reviews reliable, we will see after a few years
  • Bit noisy, less important as the home server is in the garage. But keep in mind if it comes in the living room (for media player or the like).

Meanwhile I have 8 WD Red type drives and I can only recommend them. These drives are used for movie, series and music storage and are accessed over the network. Can't think of a downside.

Fast, reliable and quiet

I've been using WD RED drives for my Synology NAS for years and they have never disappointed me. They are fast, reliable and very quiet.

Good product

  • Fast
  • Large capacity
  • Traditionally reliable (but only recently in use)
  • Gets quite warm compared to other models

Experience with the brand, reliable. But this can of course vary per copy. Sitting here in a RaidZ2
