    At $199, this is a great price/per TB deal for a drive that is quick and not too loud.

    I got the 14tb and it should be noted that if you are in a quiet room with this hard drive on you will hear a tick noise every 10 seconds.

    This drive is much faster than I expected for a magnetic hard drive of this size and price. I am getting up to approx 200 GB/s writes which is quite good compared to what I used to get years ago on these class of drives.

    I got this for ~$200 on sale and ripped it apart and threw the white label drive into my computer. Cheaper than buying a non-enclosed red drive and not difficult. You might still need a jumper pin for these for that to work but I just use the sata-pwr to molex adapters instead.

    I've have not had a WD die one me. I hope this one lasts as long. On sale, it is hard to beat. Just know that WD has not adopted MS calculation of storage so the storage will show up at 12.7 TB and it is not a mistake. FYSA.

    This thing is just as advertised; nearly 14 TB of capacity. It's a bit slow (it's likely a WD blue drive inside), but this shouldn't be your every day access anyway, especially with how it will occupy a power plug. I'm using it for archival backups that I plan on performing every year; my everyday backup is still a WD 4TB (which ironically is now the same price as a 5TB, sad face), and that performs way faster with the smaller form factor, and doesn't need a power supply.

    WD makes the best hard drives hands down. While i love the ssd drives for the fact they are silent, with no moving parts, hi capacity isnt available yet in the range of 10 TB or more. As a pro photographer i need 30=tb plus at a minimum, and use redundant backups for my hd drives, and will always look for the black or red label series as the most reliable drives. Over the years, i had many other brand drives fail, to the point i wont buy any product that features them, cheap drives cost you more in the long run, loosing valuable data.
