Quick shipping and reasonable price. Greatly increases my NVR retention.

Excellent WD product as usual. Transfer speeds seem a bit slow/ Windows says "More than 1 day" to move 2tb and then heads to lunch. Later, the files seem to be there, but not confidence inspiring. I think a 'File at a time' copying program would be better than windows drag and drop or copy and paste.

Good capacity and pretty quite even under load.

- Owned this drive since 8/4/2017 and it hasn't broken on me - Isn't very loud - Great drive for the price - Stores my date just fine - 3TB and is 7200 rpm for a decent price - Loads my games in a timely manner.

Purchased 3 drives and installed them in a Thecus N5550 Diskless System NAS Server on 2015-01-01 and I have been using the WD Purple 4TB - WD40PURX to back up my computer files and mainly for Family photos and family tree files. I have had zero issues with the drives and they are still running strong for me :) Come 01/01/2021 it well happen been 6 years of operation of the drives Joe Solomon - Newton,KS

Elbow room. Writing 8+ tb took hours, not days. Finally, everything on ONE drive again. As opposed to scattered across a fistful of 4tb. Does NOT require special power plug. The only sound I hear is dull thumping when the head thrashes. Stays cool writing for hours.


came on time price was nice 5 TB great size

I haven't had any issues with the 2.5" drives from Seagate at all. I use them exclusively in my Desktops instead of 3.5" when it comes to storage.

It's a sturdy plastic, padded, anti-static case, and priced right in a 5-pack

Received in a newegg box with some decent air cushion wrapping. No physical damage noted. Ran Crystaldiskinfo and Crystaldiskmark on it, it's brand new with zero hours and no reallocated sectors, performance measured as good. A fast and quiet drive, with under-load temperatures less than my 8TB Ironwolf Pro. I registered it on Seagate site, it has full manufacturers warranty. It came with SN02 firmware, I updated to SN04. Have been running 24x7 for about a week so far, no problems. Quite happy with this drive.



Seagate is the best external devices on the market. Im extremely excited with my purchase and I highly recommend buying seagate products.


- 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

Installed Windows 10 OS no issues at all. Great performance


Their customer service is amazing. Before they even shipped the drive, I had a confirmation email making sure I wanted a SAS drive (which I didnt, my bad!). Unfortunately, my reply didn't make it before it shipped, but my RMA and refund were done immediately, no questions or issues.
