💾 MDD - Renewed HGST Ultrastar 6TB 7200RPM HDD with 128MB Cache and SATA 6Gb/s Connection - 3.5-inch Enterprise Hard Drive for NAS, Desktop PC, Surveillance Storage - 5 Year Warranty Review

2.5 month experience. Its pros: Claimed reliability and reputation of Hitachi drives, large volume, 5 platters instead of 6-7 for most 6TB HDDs, one of the best price-volume ratios, speed. Has some cons: It cannot be used without additional cooling - it will overheat (I got to 56 ° -57 °). A good fan to the HDD cage solves the problem - I have 32° now.

Of the 13 purchased disks (I use in NAS DS 2411+), one died after about a month of operation - it simply ceased to be detected by the system. Was returned under warranty. The remaining 12 pieces worked fine until recently. In January of this year, the SMART of one of them deteriorated in terms of the 197,Current Pending Sector Count parameter. After about two months, on two more disks, the same parameter began to deteriorate. The remaining 9 pieces are still working flawlessly. I contacted the…

Bought on 10/04/2022. HGST 7k6000 6tb HUS726060ALE614. I needed an hdd for a large number of games to send to distant places, where there is practically no Internet. Searched for VD, found HGST. I don't know how to explain it yet, but after two days of active use of this disc, I'm not ready to declare in unison with other buyers that it is loud. Maybe it somehow varies from instance to instance. But such silence (already a little frightening even) I have not heard from the HDD since 1990…

Already 3 years in operation. Different pros: I can't say enough about reliability yet. but the speed and response of the disc are excellent, I put myself in nas (homemade). I decided to take it and not the nas series because of the guarantee here as much as 5 years. Some cons: The noise is not big, I do not advise anyone who will put it in a block near the ear. I have it lying in the corridor in the system unit. It does not cause me any discomfort. And the drive gets a little warm. It is…

I chose it because of the level of reliability and due to the fact that 6-terabyte conventional models are noticeably more reliable than helium ones (according to reviews), at least at the present time. Its pros: Enterprise-class reliability hard drive at the price of household drives. This alone in the "era of unreliable hard drives" covers all its shortcomings. Different cons: Too noisy for home use, and as soon as the disk does not make noise: and just w-w-w-w, and tr-r-r-r, and pub-pub-pub,

I took it to my home high-load sideboard. Prior to that, there were Seagates for 3 TB. First, the main two died, then from the reserve. I assembled a mirror for important data and a striped volume for all sorts of garbage in MS Storage Spaces. They have already wound 7700 hours continuously and absolutely nothing happens to them - they work perfectly. Let them rumble, let them warm up. But the head does not hurt for the safety of data and the speed is impressive.
