Review on πŸ’½ Seagate Exos X16 16TB Enterprise Hard Drive, 7200 RPM, 512e/4Kn, SATA 6Gb/s, 256MB Cache, 3.5-Inch (ST16000NM001G) by Jeremy Floyd

Exactly what I've come to expect from an enterprise hard drive

Exactly what I've come to expect from an enterprise hard drive: fast, hot, noisy. I bought five 8TB drives for RAID 10 and after cranking it all up they made me laugh and smile as they remind me of the 10k-15k RPM SAS/SCSI drives I have in the data processing of the hub. Testing on Linux with md RAID 10 and dd, stable read at 400MB/s so can't complain. For those who comment on the warranty, only buy from Revain. If you buy from third parties, you gamble and waste your time.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Some bugs
