Western Digital WD60EFRX

Advantages: Volume, price for such a volume

Disadvantages: Life time

Comment: In 2014, it was bought immediately 2. One was in the computer, the second - in the outer box.
Now 4 months since the 3-year warranty ended and the one that stood in the outer box began to die. SMART errors, CRC errors, are not formatted. Regardless of whether in the box or inside the system unit. And this disk was not under load - it was just sometimes used for backups. And the one that is under load is working properly.

Advantages: stand in the home server (HP Gen8) with a collection of films (without Reid)
never turn off the server, do not reboot for several months ...
until there was a single failure
of the benefits - low power consumption
don't warm up

Disadvantages: for one and a half years of operation not detected

Comment: I bought in the fall of 2016 - 3 pieces
at the time of purchase the optimal price ratio for GB
drives are clogged at 80-90%

Advantages: A great option for network storage

Disadvantages: The price, the first two took for 19,500 each, the third already for 21,000

Comment: I use three such disks in network storage Qnap. For six months, no complaints. They are not the quietest - but for 6 terabytes it is very difficult to imagine a quiet hard. I will gradually buy more such - to expand the storage. In terms of price / quality ratio, the best option, plus this line is specially adapted for 24 hours of work around the clock in a network drive - my Transmission client is spinning so they never rest.
In six months I will add - has anything changed?

Several years have passed - everything works well (updated review on March 4, 2017)

Advantages: Works

Disadvantages: Price

Comment: In the network storage drive died on 5Tb. It was necessary to urgently change something, took what was as close as possible.

Advantages: PRICE (bought for 10 thousand rubles), characteristics, reliability

Disadvantages: Small volume of buffer memory, 5700 rpm - this is not enough for speed and performance

Comment: With the price for which the screw was bought in August 2014 - almost perfect

Advantages: All declared characteristics justify

Disadvantages: price. for burzhuinov the cost is much lower, especially at the end of January, the price for ours increased by 40 percent (basically everything). schA slowly falls. I took the first dissk at the end of January to 23. I already see 17 on the market.

Comment: I use in the hardware Sinology DS as the main disk model for NAS storage. The speed and load on the whole coil is kept excellent. do not heat themselves too much, do not make noise. 100 Mbit torrents transfer to the array (really ~ loading 10MBS, 9 MBS return), local copying 100 Mbit from another array + watching video (with a bunch of background services) works without gaps and strains.
Every month, I pull out for a hot test run one of the drives for interest. All that is stated by WD, unchanged, without b.blokov and other byak.
