Good value and does everything i need them to do (and look nice before they disappear into my terramaster nas).


Good price and delivery wouldn't use anything else

But took the plunge on prime day.


The new disk arrived as promised and works perfectly - albeit after another lengthy volume rebuild.

Packaging/appearance


Came well packaged for a hard drive which is what you would expect, fast delivery, worked out the box, no issues

As shown in the picture the box says st4000vnz06 contains st4000vn006.


I give the product 5 stars but as a word of warning but to also compliment customer services on how they handled this:i bought ...  Read More

    Lost a drive in a laboratory network area storage nas device and bought a few of these to replace the raid array before i lost any of the data


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I noticed almost straight away that these were significantly quieter when the nas was idle than it was previously


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They are perfect for what i use them for but i dont shunt large video media files or machine images to or from the nas that these drives are attached to so cant comment too much on speed tests


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Yes it is a tiny bit slower but as the processor is only an i74790 its hardly noticeable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I give the product 5 stars but as a word of warning but to also compliment customer services on how they handled thisi bought this as a warehouse deal and the drive came in a single layer of bubble wrap in a small thin jiffy bag


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Due to this i was concerned about any damage during delivery as this was no adequate at all


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was told that if i wanted to i could return it but if i was happy they would make a note and if anything goes wrong in the future they would be aware

    Bit on the loud side but does what it says on the tin
