Review on Western Digital WD Red Plus 1TB hard drive WD10EFRX by Wiktor Sabak ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

I built a quiet system. The silence of his work raises no objections. The system, programs are on the SSD. HDD is used for archive, documents, etc. etc. The disk head is parked (after about 10 minutes of inactivity, if desired, you can configure it as convenient for anyone) - for me the most optimal solution. I explain: when working with documents, files, viewing photos, the disk works constantly without parking. "Work" in the browser - we watch movies online, go to FBontakte - the disk is worth it, because the browser is on an SSD (peace and quiet + less disk wear) Worth noticing: The speed of rotation of the disk is not indicated - but for me it is not critical. 3 year warranty from the manufacturer. Who needs a 5 year warranty - Black-series. Everything suits me here - optimal price / quality. Let's look at reliability - but practice shows that Western Digital has always been a leader in this indicator. Conclusion: the best HDD for a home PC at a very good price. : more than six months have passed. It became a little noisier when leaving the parking lot and working (about 3-4 months after the start of operation, but there has been no progress on increasing noise since then). But subjectively, it still remained about the same quiet from the workers of half a meter and does not cause any complaints about the noise as before. The temperature is still very low. There are no complaints about reliability and productivity at all (there are no broken sectors).

Pros
  • + quiet (does not crackle, does not whistle) + cold + moderate, decent price + good for RAID +/- the head is parked (a plus for me, explanations in the comments)
Cons
  • -/+ the head is parked (a plus for me, explanations in the comments)
