    Great product but not discrete
    4 Stars
    Great product but not discrete
    Quality product but it was not shipped in a plain box that hid what it was. It was shipped as seen in the pics with a shipping label placed on the retail box, meaning anyone who drove by my house could see a new hard drive sitting on my porch until I came home from work to bring it inside and anyone who encountered it during shipping knew exactly what it was. Considering I've had drives disappear during shipping before I was kind of surprised this was shipped in this manner. Other than that it was as advertised and works as expected as a replacement for a failed drive in my NAS.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent backup NAS drives
    Reviewed in Canada on March 14, 2024
    I’ve been a long time fan of Western Digital hard drives and have never really had any luck with seagate drives. I ordered 4 of these to replace my 8 year old Western digital 4TB NAS drives to expand my exploding digital footprint. They are still running in perfect working order. I must commend amazon on the packaging and delivery. I was a bit concerned after reading some older reviews. As you can see from the pictures, they were securely packaged up well.

    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.
