It's a 5400 RPM drive. My use of a NAS is primarily archival, so I'm more interested in reliability rather than speed.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That does not interest me, performance is why I purchased it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.These are 5400, good for a NAS, but not great for a desktop. They don't come in 7k, 10k or 15k unfortunately. Most mechanical "NAS" drives use this speed to save overall power since there are usually many of these drives per unit.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This 4TB drive is 5400RPM, the slight larger drives are 5700 and I know the 12TB is 7200RPM All the Red Pro drives are 7200RPM Hope that helps
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.5400rpm, but operates at speeds faster than a 7200rpm drive and I've used WD Caviar Black drivers all of my life.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.7200 rpm. The best affordable NAS drive I could find.
