The product is of poor quality, I do not advise.

We bought a few pieces for the server for file cleaning a la backups once a day. As a result, after a few hours of work on the new server (fsp power supply, msi mother) fell off and was not seen by the system (2022 datacenter) or how. Only a reboot helped. Because of this, I had to give up. Installed the same disk in the home file-storage on freebsd. And she loses the disk just the same. When loading, it swears that the smart is bad, although there are only 7 thousand hours on the disk and the smart is excellent. The disk is simply lost during the boot process. On another machine (also FreeBSD, used once every six months to make a full system dump via dd) for 14 thousand hours, the status is fail now/ by reallocated sector count. We bought them in large quantities. the price is low. There are no statistics on user machines, because even if it freezes, then users simply restart the computer and statistics are not kept. I would especially like to note the hum. The home machine also used such a disk before going to the file dump. The hum could not be eliminated by anything. Only by purchasing a special vibrating plate could I calm the disc. (something between plasticine and rubber, similar in consistency to a soufflé). As a result, I decided to send the disk to the file cleaner - but it refuses to work there. I will hand it over to the supplier under warranty. Don't take it. Better add a couple hundred and buy a WD.

Pros
  • Probably the price.
Cons
  • Vibration and hum. Low service life. Lack of warranty service like wd. Glitches while working with the system.
