- I have 9 RED drives that I have bought over the years. Many are over 5 years old. None of the drives have failed, and I have them running 24/7. In prior times, where I bought standard Seagate drives, I would have had several failures by now. I don't buy anything else now.


I picked up two of these and love them. These drives are massive and faster than my old WD 1tb black label drives. I've only run WD for the last 12 years and have yet to be disappointed.

128MB cache (helps tremendously with overall performance of the read and write time) Running at SATA 6.0, this drive performs between 135MB/s and 170MB/s writing speed (unheard of for a 7200 non hybrid drive) Runs cool and outperforms my old 300GB WD Raptor 10K rpm drive and doesn't overheat

I'm rating New Egg not the product as I've not yet used the product. New Egg is my go to place for my computer stuff. I previously wrote a bad review (can't find it to change it) but it was actually for a 3rd seller which actually had a good ending. As did this purchase. I recommend New Egg.



- Great Price for a NAS/Enterprise type disk drives. It made putting together a decent raid array economically possible. - Tested and performed flawlessly (so far) - Good transfer rates for 5900rpm drive - Quiet - Very low power usage

I purchased two of these (my NAS requires that they be installed in pairs). Seagate drives do not fail.


This is the product I recommended
