I got it 1 day ago, just finished running the tests (they are in order) and now I am transferring data to it. So far so good. Finally, my files will be copied from several small old HDDs, some of which have begun to crumble, and laid out in perfect order, and there will also be a lot of space left for the future. Different pros: Server (which means, most likely, more reliable), big warranty, excellent capacity. The price is much lower than many other 10-terabytes. Airy (I was specifically looking for a model for a house in the air, since I don’t trust helium yet, this is such a tricky gas that, due to the small size of atoms, seeps into any gap and even through the crystal lattice of some materials, and can suddenly come out over time, and what then "Data loss? But for data centers, where screws are not a valuable rare purchase for years, but a consumable, helium HDDs are better - due to reduced heating and power consumption). It seems like there is no tiled record, as far as I understand from the specifications. Some cons: I didn’t notice any special shortcomings, except that they wrote about this model that it was noisy and hot (because it’s air, not helium), but this is not really a problem: I put it in the system unit opposite the cooler, set the cooler speed with the reobass so that it doesn’t get warm, and it didn’t make noise (the temperature stays a little more than 30 degrees, and the neighboring WD Red has 4 TB, which almost does not fall under the airflow - a little less than 30 degrees), and everything is OK. During tests, when the utility makes the block of heads actively run around the entire screw, of course, their movements are clearly audible, but any HDD will somehow tap and crackle, some a little quieter, some a little louder, this is its nature. If you have a super-quiet PC with dropsy, this sound may disturb someone, but it's an HDD, it's completely normal for it. Well, there is also a non-standard arrangement of mounting holes, in many system units you will have to mount only 2 screws, and if some kind of custom HDD mounting system is used in the system unit, it may not get up at all in a regular way. I also want to note the low read / write speed relative to this volume. It is not low in itself, it is typical for any HDD, but if for a terabyte HDD it is not perceived so slowly, then for a 10 TB screw, and even more so for a person who is used to NVMe SSDs with speeds of 3000 Mb / s, speeds of 100-150-200 Mb / s can strain. Well, this is the nature of any HDD: relatively slow, but durable, unlike SSD, where it is fast, but after 10 years without power, data is likely to be lost due to charge leakage from under the gates of transistors in ultra-thin multilayer memory cells. Perhaps the speeds will grow in a few years, when they launch HDD lines with a double block of heads. Well, I can also note the usual OEM packaging in a sealed antistatic bag made of metallized film: such packaging does not protect the HDD from shock. In my case, there were no crumpled corners or scratches, but they can easily be, and this is a reason for the store to refuse a guarantee, mind you!
