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 &gt. 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.

Price

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.
