    It's a great solution for storing a bunch of data on a separate device that you won't be accessing to often.

    For the price to quality and reliability ratio, this is probably the hard drive you should go with for home use. Could you find a hard drive that technically has higher reliability ratings? Sure. Would it cost you a lot more? Absolutely.

    I use HDDs in my machines for downloads, large files, and general long-term storage. This particular HDD is of superior quality, definitely meets my expectations. It’s also noticeably quieter than other HDDs I’ve purchased in the past. I recommend this product!

    If you are going to go for an old school HD, this is a reliable and reasonably fast drive for the technology.

    Running 4 of these in a RAID5, it does get pretty loud but nonetheless they perform just as expected.

    Perfect for building a NAS. These drives are big in storage and cheap. For the quality. I use them for a home media server and they are more than fast enough for 4k cloud streaming.

    Been running in my OMV NAS for a while now. Powered up 24/7. Fast for a HDD and not too loud. Very good value when you can catch it on sale.

    Great for a Plex Server

    I got 2 of these for my Truenas Plex server and after several of use months they’re fantastic. They’re noticeably louder than the WD 4TB Red NAS drives I had before, but from my understanding that’s par for the course for larger drives. Read, write speeds are more than sufficient for a Plex Server using the ZFS filesystem and ZFS Cache.

    I had to return first one because it was very loud and I worried it will fail eventually. It kept spinning none stop. I went to the store and got the replacement. This second one was working quite and good. I have used Western Digital and Seagate HDD. I noticed Seagate has better quality and lower failure rate. This Ironwolf HDD is fast and good. Istallation is easy and simple

    Although this hard drive cost more than Baricuta model, the added reliability and technology makes the cost difference worth it.

    I've used Seagate drives for many years, and only one had an issue with bad sectors. I purchased two of these to be used as data drives in two SSD-based PCs. The drives are fast, quiet, and they have (hopefully) the IronWolf reliability on which many servers depend. Only slightly more expensive than their desktop counterparts, these drives are definitely worth it to me.
