Review on Seagate ST16000NM002G 16TB 7200RPM HDD by Abhey Abhey ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

The drives are ideal for a nas that you want to keep in a closet where no one can hear it. Its benefits this is from the evident, massive amount. I downloaded half of the rutracker with the two I carried to the computer, and I'll take two more later for us on four CDs. Excellent write and read speeds! price! We only have Western Digital for 10,000 more of the 16tb solutions. or seagate Ironwolf, which are similarly priced but, in the company's opinion, inferior than the prior model. In general, there is no difference between exos x18 and 16TB disks if you want exact 16TB disks; x18 are just declared to have a greater memory density. Pros below: incredibly loud I'm not referring to background noise, which is only about 30 dB; rather, I'm referring about head parking during recording, which can occasionally just drive the devil out of the disk. Even in my stylish, noise-isolating Darkbase Pro 900 case, the disks are audibly noisy. It is not possible to sleep in a room with a computer that has such disks. It's not crucial for me because my computer isn't in the bedroom, but it should be considered when shopping. I compare the loudness with the wd100efax, and the seagate is noticeably noisier, in part because of the 7200rpm (wd100efax has 5400rpm). I also compared it to the 7200 rpm WD100efbx, and Seagate is still noisier. Briefly stated, server disks must be crammed into the desktop while having a clear understanding of your goals. In my case, the norms hold true: noise is a punishment for volume.

Its pros: Large capacity, good writing speed Got cons: Noise, crackle. When the heads are parked, it seems that it was the last time and the disk fell apart, you check, it seems not, even the screws did not fall out.

With its pros. 1. trite, but i liked the volume of 16 ter, but i would like more! 2. i was surprised by the rather low temperature at max load. Got cons: 1. the main drawback is noise. 2. price - i would like it to be cheaper. although i was lucky to take it by chance at a cosmically low price of 26tyr, i would like a lower price.

Hot, put an additional cooling fan for it.
