Pros & Cons
Pros
They're the duke of new york, a number one! Dang plex addiction. My only complaint is its noise level. It makes a sort of clacking noise, which is audible from my bedroom closet.
Hooked up, formated/partitioned drive. Great for archiving files. Video is the fastest, folders that contain loads of small documents and individual pictures go at more than 50 mb/s. Gotosteam > settings < downloads >. Steam library folders.
Cons
Dead on arrival, sounds like a garbage disposal running. I finally go around to installing the drive and found that the plastic under the metal tabs on the sata connector was not there.
Highlights
Quality
Work great, solid drives, the 8's have been spinning nonstop for over 18 months an so far, so good.
Great drive, really fast, super easy to install.
Upgraded to these from a hodge-podge of desktop drives for a home-made unraid nas.

Price
Quick as an hdd can be, reliable as far as my experience goes, and well priced.
I hope we can find it with less cost.
Good price and performance, but be aware of the noise they can make.
Shipping
It arrived very fast, which i appreciate.
Packaging/appearance
The four 6tb drives i ordered came spaced equally in the middle of this packaging, and delivered with no marks or issues at all.
These came in a box and packaging designed for drives.
Competitiveness
The seagate ironwolf nas drives perform well and at a better price point over their competitor.
And for data storage either on a desktop, server or a nas these ironwolf drives are the best choice there is.
