There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Update... Was making a sound but I noticed it stopped when I held down my PC. So it seems like the drives rotates really fast and if parts in your case are just a little loose you will hear some noise. I opened up my case made sure everything around the drive was secured and so far no loud noise.
It was packaged with adequate insulation and factory sealed. This one was made in Thailand on Nov 4, 2023, ordered on Nov 23 and received on Nov 29, 2023; so freshly produced.
5 stars for now.
Top reviews from other countries
The drives themselves have passed extensive read/write tests without so much as a hiccup. One thing to note however, is that this hard drive tends to be a little nosier. More than likely due to additional platters compared to the 4TB variant. Also important to clarify that this review is for the CMR version.

The drives themselves have passed extensive read/write tests without so much as a hiccup. One thing to note however, is that this hard drive tends to be a little nosier. More than likely due to additional platters compared to the 4TB variant. Also important to clarify that this review is for the CMR version.
Overall, these drives are great for NAS and highly recommended if you can find them!
Pro:
- CMR disk so its suitable for NAS
- Reliable for long time usage
- Sequential write performance between 200-83MB/s depending on the region being written (The farther away from the inside of the disk platters you go, the higher the velocity of the head thus resulting in faster speed)
Con:
- tends to get hot so need proper ventilation
- 5700 rpm compared to the red prod wich is 7200
- warranty is only 3 years for the red pro compared to 5 years for the Red pro
