IronWolf Pro

I've had the drive in my Ugreen NAS a month now without issue. The warranty was showing as 6 months initially,but the seller promptly provided an invoice, and seagate amended it to 5 years.

It is worth emphasising that these drives are specifically designed for installation in a NAS or storage server. The vibration sensors enable them to work better when there are multiple spinning drives in use all alongside each other, 24x7. The chance of in-life failure is small and the Pro version of Ironwolf means that you have a higher workload rate limit and a five-year warranty plus three-years of data recovery service. You should be using them with some kind of data redundancy such as RAID 5 or better. Don't forget the 3-2-1 rule for backup: at least 3 copies of the data, on two different physical devices, one of which is off-site. If you get a working hard drive, it's excellent. I'd give it five stars, really. After about a month, I have two of these 16TB Ironwolf Pro drives running in my NAS and will probably buy another if/when my storage requirements need it. With a working drive, plugging it into the NAS and making use of it should take less than five minutes. As with all makes of NAS drives, noise levels are noticeable when the NAS is busy, but they are almost silent when just spinning. Apparently (unlike some of the existing single-starred commentaries for this product), one cannot make remarks about the quality of enclosure of the delicate product for its apparently very bumpy voyage down the big river to me, or about the level of effort and time that it takes to deal with the practical and financial consequences, twice. My overall marking reflects the chances of me buying another one the same way.

Happy buying this reliable HDD for my NAS

Has the capacity but is very noisy in operation.

They work well in my ugreen dxp2800.

Unfortunately this item failed almost 8 months to the day after purchase. No warning, just failed. 100% Health in Hard Disk Sentinel one minute, dead the next. Best look elsewhere.

Good genuine hard drive. What more is there to say?

Does what it says on the tin works well at a good price

It works as it should! No problems! You get around 3,7 Tb of storage like expected

De momento genial para mí servidor nas de casa. Rápido y fiable. El envío tardo unos días porque viene de tienda alemana, pero bien.

Un beau disque de 14 To pour Nas, performant en 7200 tr/mn, et normalement silencieux Je dis normalement, car suite à un colis mal préparé par le vendeur, pas assez de protections et qui ont été en plus défaillante, le disque les ayant explosées, le disque est arrivé avec 2 grosses bosses sur le Capot, et un bruit de tête à l'intérieur lorsque l'on déplace le disque. Je voudrais signaler le sérieux du vendeur Montcalm et d'Amazon, qui m'ont remboursé rapidement le produit Une avarie de transport cela peut arriver Malheureusement le vendeur est à stock zero sur ce produit Je vais attendre afin de pouvoir lui repasser une commande pour son professionnalisme Mais autrement se sont de super disques pour des NAS, j'en suis normalement très content, c'était mon quatrième On dit jamais 3 sans 4 ... donc on va patienter un peu Mais vendeur sérieux et de confiance Depuis mon message précédent, j'ai racheté le même en 8To, car les autres pas disponible Arrivé super emballé dans du plastibulles - Parfait - Il tourne dans le NAS

Lorsque l'on ne l'utilise pas et que c'est le silence dans la pièce, ils font de petits bruits assez forts, mais court sur un NAS Synology DS218+. Lors de l'utilisation, sont très bruyants, mais moins que les WD RED

Once upon a time I bought a Western Digital Red 4TB disc. Within 6 weeks the disc got corrupted. And I got a replacement. At first they wanted to give me a factory re-issued disc, but in the EU I am entitled to a new disc, so after getting HOT that's what I got ;-) That disc held about a year or so and it went with bad sectors. Western digital replaced the drive with a re-certified (or something like that) disc. That held about a year or so before it also lost it's spirit. Then I decided to switch to Seagate Pro. I think that was about a year ago on a single drive Synology NAS. In august 2021 Western Digital announced that their MyBook Live NAS which I did not dare to connect to Internet anymore because it's firmware was not updated by Western Digital anymore, got security issues. Users that had them connected to internet reported that their drives were deleted by some viral bug. I used a single bay Synology NAS, but kept the WD MyBook Live NAS as a Back-up drive. So I did not need it to be connected to internet. But still I was uncertain about the WD product. And even more because in the past I already experienced another WD external drive that without warning gave up it's joy for life. So I decided it was time for a two bay NAS. Naturally I did not want any Western Digital product anymore. So again I bought a Seagate Iron Wolf Pro, to go with a new two bay Synology NAS. And this seller delivered it on the spot. On time as promised.
