Upgraded from a 2-disk RAID 1 to a 4-disk RAID 5, 6TB to 15.6TB! I'll most likely die before I use up all that space!Disks arrived properly shock-insulated in a vacuum static-proof bag. Worked like a champ!Highly recommend!UPDATE: A few weeks ago, the disks began throwing warnings, 1 about bad blocks, the other Read errors. Neither catastrophic: They continued working until this seller graciously honored Segate's 1-Year warranty and sent 2 replacements! They are Installed, RAID 5 restored and working fine, all green.Continues in the "Highly Recommend" category!

Seagate all they way. I've yet to have any issues with any Seagate's. The ones that came in my computers and these that I've been filling up my NAS with. This makes my 4th Seagate NAS drive. 2- 4TB and 2- 6TB. All going well.They aren't quiet, but I doubt any NAS drive is truly designed to be quiet. I just put it in a room that I'm never in. My only grip. Price dropped $20 while mine was in route to me. I've had a few portable HDs go out on me. I tore them apart to see what brand failed. None were Seagate's....

I bought 2 of these for my new NAS, and so far I've been very happy with them. They run quietly and not too hot either. The first 2 I got are working so well that I bought 2 more to fully populate my 4-bay NAS. No problems with them whatsoever, and after working them hard during the initial installation and copying over a bunch of data, there are no signs of early failure.The sale price is pretty good too, $40ish off the usual price and cheaper than the other brand's Red drives.

So far so good (just installed it last night). One word of warning if you are installing it into a Synology 2 Bay device (this may also apply to other systems, but this is just what I have)... The drive only has side screw mounts on the very front and the very back. The Synology only has screw openings on the very back and the middle. So instead of having four screws holding it in, I only have two. Frankly I blame Synology for this more than Seagate but it is a bit of an annoyance regardless of who dropped the ball.The drive is also a bit loud when reading and writing. It startled me a bit at first but I'm starting to get used to it.
