Name Brand, only 1 drive has failed in the last 4 years out of 150-200 drives installed. Def recommend.

I upgraded my Synology NAS with these drives. They werent on Synologys compatible list, but I used them anyway. I trust the WD Red brand. Ive been using the Red brand for 10 years with no data loss. Only time will tell if these new drives hold up. They seem zippy. I got a great price from NewEgg, so I would definitely recommend them.

+ Fast 7500 RPM, faster then old HHD drives. + Affordable and reliable from past experience with Segate +Seagate BarraCuda 3TB can be purchased in two different configurations for almost similar price ( detailed in Others below). + 3GB offer plenty of space for backup.

Handles multiple streams of video with ease. I have 4 cameras streaming to it constantly. When I went back to view recorded video, it played without any hesitation. There was no stuttering or skipping frames. A surveillance drive is designed to record video 24/7. Most of that video is never played back. When you do need to go view recorded video, you want to know it will be there. This drive delivers that feature. The drive remained cool while it was recording. Temperatures were at the low end of the operating range. The drive is also quiet when compared other drives.

Quiet and reliable.

Worked perfect out the box


Shipping was much faster than expected

-Is a speedy drive -Hold 4tb -is indeed Sata



Drive was plug and play ready for partitioning and format. Good capacity for the price.
