Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Great drive. No complaints. I plan to gradually replace the older drives in my nas.

The disk benefits from the 7200 rmp speed and the 256 mb cache. Ata streaming command set tells the hard drive how long it will take to read and write data to each sector of the disk. Ata streaming commands hdd, datum, rmp.

Highlights

Quality

It holds plenty of video, as in several years worth, on an 8 camera system.

It seamlessly integrated with my nas drive and was up and running in less than a day.

The workload for the 8tb s300 is rated at 180 tb/year with a mean time to failure of 1,000,000 hours.

I've bought (and reviewed) so many large sata hard drives for my various dvr, nvr, and nas projects.

Price

I purchased the drive knowing that it probably had a hard to diagnose problem (low price) and rate this pruchase as excellent.

If you're wanting to put some inexpensive storage into an nvr or dvr, then this will probably work for you.

Competitiveness

Sure, the cache and ncq strategies might be different, but i'd imagine those differences would be slight at best.
