A: I Just got this drive and shucked it. I am getting Seq read of 198 and Write of 147MB/s. Also, the documentation states a 2 year warranty.
Q: Does anyone knows if this are the red hard drives inside?
A: People on reddit.com/r/DataHoarder are saying that the drives are helium filled WD White drives
Q: DOEST WD EASYSTORE10 TB COME WITH WINDOWS 10
A: come with windows 10? no...does it work with windows 10...yes
A: The size of the hard drives are the issue... All Samsung tv's I have top out at 2tb. Your best bet is to use the best router you can afford with a usb 3 port, tri band with MIMO.. basically all the bells and whistles.. Go on their website or google the name and add max hard drive to it. The one I have for example only has a voltage limitation: "The Linksys EA8300 has one USB 3.0 port that is capable of supporting an external hard disk or flash drive with up to 1100 mA current draw." Also with a router you can watch on any laptop or tablet etc
A: Yakma Yes the situation about the 3.3V status is in effect with these White Labeled Red Drives. What that means is when you shell the drive from the enclosure ( which voids the Units Warranty) and attach it to a computer as an internal HDD then the white labeled HDD will not start up / spin up when the computer is powered on. The reason is that the Drive's logic board senses the 3.3 volt on pin 3 of the edge connector where the power connector attaches to. If that voltage is detected then the drive will not power up. here is a link to check about the 3.3v https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9W3-uOl4ruc here is a link about shucking these drives - Doing so voids the Warranty.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEttNCJ5o9Y
A: Yes, you can repartition the drives. You do not need special software, as long as your system recognizes all 10TB of the drive, which most machines manufactured in the last 5 years can.
A: Yes, you should be able. It depends on myCloud if it will recognize all of the space available.
Q: Can this unit hang on a network or does it need to be connected to a PC/usb-connection device?
A: I’m using mine with the USB 3.0 input on my NETGEAR router — so it’s not restricted to PCs. It maps as a network drive on my home computers without issue!
