Great for RAID 1 server application
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased to replace an existing 2T RAID 1 array, in which one of the drives is starting to show errors (after more than 86,000 hours in operation). I have had very good luck with WD Red drives in this server application.

I would recommend this to a friendONE OF THE TWO PURCHASED WENT BAD ALREADY!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased 2 of these in October 2024. For the last week or so, I noticed that the one in Bay 1 is now showing a solid red light instead of the usual solid blue light. I'm not really sure what the issue is but until I can take it to Geek Squad at Best Buy, I'm purchasing a replacement.

I would recommend this to a friendHorrible Support
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My drive failed not even a year in. I sent it back in for replacement and it took over 3 months and me emailing the customer support multiple multiple times. They escalated it 3 times and then sent an email asking me to send in the drive after they had the drive for 2 months. I finally received the replacement 2-3-2026. this drive is for my Unifi Firewall for VR of my front doorbell so not even heavy use. I will not buy another WD drive.
