    4TB is a lot of space. I got this HD at a great price of $90 with free pick up at BestBuy. Fast transfer of file. It is not your small USB HD that you can fit in your pants pocket.

    I am using this drive with a Raspberry Pi running OpenMediaVault to server as my home NAS. And I must say that the performance of this system is faster then every store bought NAS solution is have tried in the past. The drive performance has been great and I would recommend to anyone. I did not crack open the case to check for myself but according to many sources this case does contain a WD Red (NAS) hard disk.

    Bought this unit to move ALL my pictures from old hard drives and my current C: & G: in order to open them up for more space. I uploaded my Work Docs to have an offsite storage at home and my PowerPoints and Training Docs. Sometimes too open or store something, it takes a few seconds for it to sync up and get ready, but that is a minute thing, for what the old ways were. THANK YOU for a great product and a great price.
