Needed this for storage of baby pics and videos. Have bought 2 so far one for each daughter. Would recommend!

I cannot tell if this is working or not, I bought for my other purchase of a NAS 2-bay external drive which is not recognizing my 2 WD's. I do not feel it is my WD's at fault. May have to get Geek Squad in to figure it out!

Better than the 2TB I replaced it with for speeds. Great to have this much room for storage. This is for the 256mb cache version.

I bought 2 of these for my home server and so far they've been great. I didn' have any installation issues or issues setting them up into raid format. The initial ease of use/setup has been great. I'm still waiting to see how they perform over an extended period of time, but Western Digital has always been good for me!

This is a reliable hard drive designed specifically for Network Attached Storage (NAS) environments. Works perfect
Had one WD 2TB faulty drive that was almost 10 years old. Replaced them as a pair. Plug and Play, Up and running in no time!

clean, quiet and quick. It used as backup disk for NAS.

These are great drives. The oldest one in my NAS is from 2022 and I've never once had an issue with them. Also, I much prefer ordering from Best Buy over other online vendors because Best Buy actually packages the product correctly.

The drive is fairly quiet and I haven't noticed them running hot in my Synology NAS. I had no problems about them being recognized and formatted either. I bought the larger size because it guaranteed that it would be CMR rather than SMR.

Good value and works as intended. Very happy with the purchase.

So far, so good. Bought this drive to replace a faulty personal cloud drive. So far, it's performed as expected - no hiccups, no errors. I have backed up all our devices (a couple TB of data) and it seems to perform very well.

Just set this up in my NAS drive today, and it is working perfectly.

Replaced one that died in my NAS from about 10 years ago. Like the one it replaced - they are kinda noisy, but they do solid work.

Working correctly as expected. Installation into Synology NAS was easy.

It's great. Silent and low consuming. It's the basic that others brands can't offer.

WD red NAS drives have always been a superior product.
