Pros:
- Large size works great for my digital life
- Stable and reliable drive, no issues after weeks of use
I’ve been using the Seagate IronWolf Pro 20TB in my Synology NAS, and it has been absolutely fantastic. The drive is fast, reliable, and easy to install. It’s perfect for handling large amounts of data, and the peace of mind offered by the included Rescue Data Recovery Services is a huge bonus. Highly recommend this for anyone looking to upgrade their NAS storage!

Worked right out of the box to replace a drive that was having issues in my NAS. Took about 2 days to add this disk to parity on Unraid which has been about the normal for this size and it being a spinner. Packaging was good as I would expect for a new product. ESD bag plus cardboard support around the drive meant no issues when the box was shipped. I didn’t have any problems with spin up sound, though I am running 10 drives in my NAS as a mix of WD red, and Seagate Ironwolf pros.

I've been purchasing Ironwolf Pro drives for some time. On Amazon, I get about 1/4th of them DOA (lately worse). I decided to purchase directly from Seagate and got 2 22TB drives DOA with a nightmare return experience. So I decided to give BB a try since the return is a short distance away and their returns have always been hassle free. I received two of these 20TB drives yesterday and installed them in my DS416 NAS (don't laugh). I am midway through installing the 2nd drive and so far no problems. These run about 5 degrees F warmer than the older, smaller Seagate drives but well within tolerance at 104 degrees. I think BB just became my new go to for NAS drives... even if I do have to wait for them to go on sale. I cannot speak to their longevity but they do come with a 5 yr limited warranty.

Well packaged and it came at a pretty good deal. They are relatively quiet except for when heavily writing to the discs. If you plan on having it in the room, just have in mind that they can get noisy during heavy loads.

DOA, return to BestBuy the next day

Bought it when on sales, but DOA, probably I just had bad luck. Picked up the hard drive at a local Bestbuy store, and connected it to my computer, it couldn't be recognized in the BIOS, Windows couldn't initiate the hard drive. It seemed like the disk was spinning and making some ticking sound. I put it into my NAS, same thing happened, it couldn't be recognized there either.
Returned it to the store the next day, the return & refund process was easy and smooth at Bestbuy though.
