Happy with the ones that work
Pros: Quiet and reasonably fast.
Cons: Of the 2 I ordered, one of them is great and the other was DOA. NewEgg handles this superbly as always but, I wanted to try WD after having an almost 50% DOA rate with Seagate Constellations. Unfortunately, no better but no worse.
Overall Review: Don't know what is up with HDD manufacturers these days. Maybe my luck is bad. When I was buying Seagate, I just started ordering half-again as many as I needed because there were always some bad ones. Looks like switching to WD didn't help. I suppose our S.O.P. must always be to order 50% more drives than you need because half of them are going to be bad right out of the box. But, I sincerely appreciate how quickly and completely NewEgg handles the RMAs.
strange for Seagate
Pros: great drives at a great price but...
Cons: I ordered 4 for my new NAS. 1 was DOA. 1 failed almost immediately. I have to say that I've never had problems like this with Seagate drives so I have to think it was just a fluke. I would have given more eggs but...this was a bummer that cost me several hours.
Overall Review: I've no doubt that NewEgg will make good on these and I can limp along on just the 2 good drives for a while so, nothing to get too upset about.
Great design but it doesn't really work
Pros: I like everything about how this is designed to work. I really wanted to love this.
Cons: it doesn't actually work. It doesn't retract far enough. No matter how many times you turn the knob to hold the positions you've set, after a few minutes it just drops down. When fully retracted under the desk, it takes up so much space that you can't get your legs under your desk.
Overall Review: I can't recommend it.
Very satisfied
Pros: easy to set up works better than I expected the phone app is really useful Very fast - about the same speed as my wired network
Overall Review: I would recommend this product and definitely recommend Newegg.
Solid unit
Pros: I love these Synology NAS DiskStations because they are relatively quiet. Super easy to setup.
Cons: I found out the hard way that those itty-bitty rubber doughnut thingies are super important. One fell out of one of the hard drive trays when installing the drive and, since it was a pain to get it put back in, I left it out. It had 3 of them so, I figured it wouldn't matter - WRONG! The buzzing from that bay was awful and scary sounding. I finally got it put back in and all was well. That was my only issue.
Overall Review: Recommended!
solid, no issues
Pros: it's a NAS drive. that means you don't get excited about it unless it stops working
Cons: none
Overall Review: All 4 initialized and worked without issue in my Synology DS920+ That's all you can ask for.
delivery time not acceptable
to be honest, I haven't even taken this out of the package yet because it arrived 3 weeks after I needed it so, I had to go to a local retail store and buy one. It took almost exactly a month to get here after I placed my order. Maybe it's a very good cable - I don't know... I won't need to use it again for another couple of weeks I only bought it to use at trade shows with my notebook PC and I ordered it more than a week before I needed it. Nothing else I've ever purchased from NewEgg has taken more than a few days to arrive - and I buy a TON of stuff from NewEgg.
2nd one I've purchased - very pleased
These units work exactly as described. They are a little tricky to open but not terrible once you get the hang of it.
nice unit - good price
yep
