  • Ole' Reliable
Capacity: 10TB Style: 256 MB Cache
EFBX drives are quiet, reliable, and pretty fast. This was a good generation for Western Digital. These are CMR drives with large caches and perform pretty decently. I run a pair of QNAP TR-004 enclosures, one with 4 x 8TB and one with 4 x 10TB, all WD Red Plus EFBX. Both in RAID 5 for a total of 24TB and 30TB respectively. They make for reasonably fast, responsive protected storage for media streaming, emulation, big media projects, and long-term archival. If I were really serious about protecting my data I'd do the same thing with SSDs or keep an offsite backup. However for this computer nerd of a few decades, it's nice to just have a big blob of storage to keep all my files on. Spinning disks keep things cheap enough for now, and RAID 5 provides just enough security to sleep at night. As spinning disks start to go the way of the dodo, it's going to get increasingly difficult to buy good ones without compromises in the normal consumer space. These are part of a dying breed of hardware. SSDs will overtake them in value and it won't be soon enough. ... show more

  • Arrived MUCH faster than expected
Capacity: 4TB Style: 256 MB Cache
My review is more about the purchasing process than the product itself. I already had several of these drives in a ZFS RAID system where I had a failed drive. I noticed the failure shortly after 5 PM today. In a panic mode, I quickly came to Amazon and entered in the type of drive I needed to replace and the order was placed at 5:28 PM. It was said that it would be delivered between 4 AM and 8 AM tomorrow, but I was shocked when it arrived at 7:20 PM TONIGHT!!!. Thankfully, I was able to quickly change out the drive in my drive sled and tell my NAS to resilver. By 4 am, the time it was said to be arriving, the drive will have already resilvered and my array will be back up to full functionality. I have had this NAS system now for around 7 years now and this is the third WD Red drive to have failed. Considering the system is up 24/7, I guess some failures are destined to occur. ... show more

  • Great price per GB (our current break even point)
Capacity: 8TB Style: 128 MB Cache
The product is what it says on the tin and installed easily in my Drobo. The larger drive seems to take a bit longer to be recognised etc then the Drobo kicked in and did it't thing to restore the RAID across the NAS - perfect - no issues. In other news - the drive shipped to New Zealand! I paid about $4 extra for freight and it was DHL couriered - well worth it. It arrived 2 full days ahead of schedule... less than 7 days from ordering - super impressed. ... show more

  • Great for Mac TimeMachine
Capacity: 6TB Style: 256 MB Cache
Installed in a USB3.0 case, very please with performance. Interested readers should look at a YouTube vid by Kore on how to make your own TimeMachine (for iOS). This is a CMR drive and, in my estimation, superior to a SMR drive. Look it up before you buy a drive.

  • So far so good
Capacity: 8TB Style: 128 MB Cache
I bought them for my new Synology NAS, I hesitated between the red, red plus and red pro and opted for the plus. So far so good, the transfer from my old WD MyCloud went faster than I expected and they have been working well so far. They are a little noisy but I use the NAS for back up so the drive are not continually working ... show more

  • Preferred for a NAS
Capacity: 8TB Style: 128 MB Cache
My go to brand drive is WD and I’ve been using them exclusively for NAS for the last several years with good results. I’ve typically used 2GB drives for smaller NAS so these are my first 8GB drives. So far so good.

  • Great for a Plex server
Capacity: 10TB Style: 256 MB Cache
Been holding up nicely for 6 months now. Used as my main TV drive for a plex server and has been good and reliable. Speeds are fine, nothing crazy but for my purposes its been great.
