Most Critical Review

Failed/junk 45 Days in use.

WD Red Plus 3TB NAS Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM Class SATA 6Gb/s, CMR, 64MB Cache, 3.5 Inch - WD30EFRX

Pros: None.

Cons: Go through the headache of opening a home server up and finding correct dead drive.. replace and it dies again in 45 days. Last one lasted 6 months in raid 1. I have WD Reds with Raid 1 - 2tb and 6tb that have lasted years. But these 3tb's are junk. They should pay me for my wasted time.

Overall Review: WD drives seem to be going down hill. I've had drives last years until the last year or two and now they all seem to give up in a year or two at most. Low load media server with MADAM Ubuntu raid1 setup. Same setup for years. Time to move away from WD? Likely referb sent out and repackaged. TDT Technology. Stay away and its not returnable even after only 45 days.
