Question 1

Can I use this hard drive for my home network system?

Accepted Answer

If what you mean by a "Home Network System" can also be called a NAS device, Yes. I have two installed in my Synology DS218j NAS and they are working wonderfully.
However, if you want your network storage partition to use the full 24TB capacity (it will format to around 21.8 TB), make sure your NAS or home network system can handle partitions that size. My NAS only supports 16TB partitions, so I have to have it divided into a 16TB and an 8TB partition.

Question 2

Can I use it for 2K Game recording destination?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! That's what it is for. Do not use your SSD's. You will shorten their lifespan. I have one of these in all my PC's for recordings and storage

Question 3

Is this refurbished?

Accepted Answer

Looks almost identical to Seagate 24TB Exos X24 7200 rpm SATA III 6.
I've printed out my invoice (bought 3x of them) and Seagate specs, so in 2xyears nobody will have memory problems with my Warranty.
