Large, fast, drive. Until SSD catches up this is your best bet for large storage needs.

I purchased the NAS drive for my backups since it is designed to run continuously without fail. It costs a little more, but more secure.

I've been avoiding Seagate HDD products since the late 90s-early '00s because the QC on them was so bad they'd fail just sitting in a room with a running computer. One good experience with an internal Firecuda SD drive made me think that perhaps something had changed, so I got four of these IronWolf drives to us in my WD PR4100 in RAID 10 as a media drive. These were the least used drives in my system, with the majority of their use being in short write operations for media files and read operations for streaming music. The most intensely they are ever used is during a full backup every Sunday. Yet sure enough, drive 3 and then 2 go within 24 hours of each other, wrecking the second mirror in my RAID array with drive 0 in the primary mirror signaling failure minutes after that. Fortunately I back this NAS up to the MyCloud Mirror I once thought to replace with it or my stuff would be hosed. I'm not going to bother trying to set up a new array because the cause of the issue was detected drive faults, not actual RAID software config faults. This is just too typical of what Seagate HDD always were, and since I already happen to have two Western Digital Red Plus 8TB drives brand new just sitting nearby, I'm going to return these Seagates, get two more of the WDs, and profit from WDs legendary reliability and speed. Hell, the WD drives whose content I moved to this NAS are from 2013 and they're still going strong. As for the performance of these Seagates otherwise? Sure, they're about as fast as anything else while they work. But they do everything fast - including die. So I can't recommend. I just wonder how Seagate stays in business with lack of durability in their products like this.

I needed a backup drive to my home server. After reading a few reviews, this hard drive made sense economically and reliability-wise. It has been working well so far.

Great drives, always use Seagate drives for my spinning disk needs!

It works so far so good. My computer could not find it at beginning. Therefore, I opened the Disk Management to find it.

Great price and speed for the money got seagate HD for 20 years best than WD

Very fast in a RAID 0 array. I am getting over 400 MB/s transfer from a 2 TB NVME SSD. They do make a noticeable hum while active, but are often asleep from no use.

I use these in my 12 bay Synology NAS and has not failed in two years.

Great drive. Much faster than my Barracuda drive. I liked it so much that I eventually bought four of them.

Nice drives. Fast enough to saturate a 1Gbps line in RAID5. Too noisy for desktop NAS, though.

So far it is working good. No issues with it. But time will tell

Great storage drive if you don't mind slow spin up. High quality and not loud like some people claimed. Very happy with it

These drives are always great. Competitive price and rock solid operation. Use them in NAS and security camera storage applications.

I upgraded 2 HDD to these, and am very pleased I did. these are very fast, and very quiet compared to the last 2 I had. No issues whatsoever.

Bought two 8TB drives for a new Synology NAS. Working great without any issues. Not too loud. Happy with them.

Great so far. Using in a QNAP TS-453D primarily for Plex. No complaints or issues.

I have had several Seagate Nas drives, they never disappoint. Great value for price I picked up at about 180

Solid NAS hard drive but it's sooooo loud. It's constantly writing to the drive and it sounds like popcorn popping all the time.

Great drive! Using in a Synology DS920+. No issues
