Read/Write Speeds
Customers are generally positive about the read/write speeds of the Seagate Exos X18 Enterprise Class 16TB HDD. Some users report impressive transfer rates, while others suggest getting it with additional cooling for optimal performance and longevity. However, a few customers had issues with drive temperatures and returned their units due to data loss concerns.
Highlights
Quality
Nice spacious fast hdd the read/write speeds for were around 244mbps during huge transfers.
Great communication and faultless service - i recommend!
And its not a constant pitch noise but a multiple thudding noises.
I used this with a external hdd bay (no fan) and it gets really hot after a while.
Price
The additional cost for an extra 2tb over a 16tb drive was a no-brainer.
5in sata hddstorage capacity - phenominal for the price.
Shipping
Within the day, i'd received my returns notice and free consignment slip and have since received a refund.
