    The PWL Click is Unbearable

    Let me start by saying, price wise, when on sale, this seems like a screaming deal, which is why I picked up two of these. However if you're intending to have this sit on a desk plugged in all the time you WILL be driven mad by the Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL) noise. A quick internet search will provide you a video that shows this behavior in action. This is BY DESIGN every 5 seconds you will hear an audible 'clunk'. AGAIN BY DESIGN this occurs! If this were sitting in a sever room or on a NAS in a closet somewhere that might not be a big deal, but when this thing is sitting next to you its incredible that this passed a smell test for a consumer product. This is apparently not configurable either even with WD Drive Tools. Had I know this I WOULD NOT have purchased this drive. The frustrating part about this is that other drive manufacturers (Seagate for example) have not taken this route. Its unclear if there really is longevity benefits to this design, but sadly I'm returning these drives due to this issue.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL) noise caused frustration with your Easystore 20TB drives. While this feature is designed for drive longevity, we understand how the noise can be disruptive in a workspace. WDConnections
