    The 8tb was on sale at a very competitive price so I bought 4 for a NAS that I hadn’t yet put into service. They are reasonably quiet but definitely not silent. The proof is whether they last 3 to 5 years with no issues.

    This hard drive was a replacement for one in my NAS that died after 8 years (also a western digital). The transition between drives and the rebuild of my raid went very smoothly. The drive is running cool.

    This was purchased to replace a failed WD drive in my NAS. Hopefully this one last longer than a year. WD is replacing the failed drive under warranty so I will have a shelf spare now.

    Western Digital Drives are the best around! They have a longer life span than other brands of the same type.

    So far they are working fine, a little noisy though when running backups on NAS.
