Product is safely delivered and works fine.
As all HDDs do, 22TB means actually 20TB.
And my NAS shows it is fully capable of serving 20TB, which is great!!!
Love this product,
Love this seller,
I would love to reorder the same product next time.
Thank you.
By the spec sheet, the only difference between the Red Pro and Gold is the MTBF. In my machine side by side, I've found that to be very untrue. The Gold is quieter and noticeably faster. They're all on the same SATA III controller. Gold gets 50 MB/s faster transfer when past the write cash. That's 20% which is a pretty big difference for a drive that's claimed by the manufacturer to be "the same" spec. for write.
The Red Pro is very loud. Much louder than the Gold. In my Fractal case, the drive has so much torque that it rattles around in the HDD cage. Sounds like a woodpecker. A terrifying racket if your data is important. This is partly a product of Fractal's proprietary mounting system, but other drives didn't rattle. Fortunately, the Fractal case has alternate places to mount it, so I was able to put a stop to that.
For the price I got them at, I would still buy again. But I would have liked to know that: yes these are not as good as the Gold in every dimension.
