Seagate IronWolf 4TB HDD ST4000VN008 Review

Has some pros: I bought with a good discount. The disc is quiet. Bought for Synology NAS. Different cons: Delivery is terrible. pay more attention to product packaging. The box in which the disc arrived was 4 times larger than it, paper was put on the disc so that it would not roll in the box, but the disc in the box beat against its walls. I think that the disk miraculously arrived intact, drove the checks by Victoria, s. M. a. R. t. in order, no dead pixels were found, I think this is more…

For 12 hours of continuous recording, it practically did not heat up, the average write speed for two disks in raid1 (freenas 12) was 31 Mb / s.

Stand in two nas (4 disks and 8 disks, raid5) and in two HP servers. The speed of work is excellent, do not care about the noise. Happy with 3 year warranty.

Despite the 5900 rpm, the drive has a high data transfer rate. I already have 3 disks with this rotation speed. Drives with 7200 rpm are hotter and noisier (temperature difference 12-15 degrees)

The hard drive, despite being a NAS, makes almost no noise. Before buying, you should also buy screws, since they are not included in the package and I had to (I unscrewed 2 screws diagonally from another hard drive) This hard drive costs less than a month, but works flawlessly. Maybe the comment will be ated later. 10/15/2022

Has pros: I assembled a home server on this hard drive. I am satisfied with the result, it does not heat up and works quietly. No problems for 2 months of work did not arise Cons: except for the price, I took it for 8,500, now it’s almost 16,000. It can be seen that the new crypt, which is mined on disks, is to blame

It is strange that Ya. Market so persistently offers to leave a review of the hard drive literally the next day after the purchase. Such purchases are evaluated in five years. Some pros: 2x4 TB work in the Synology DS411 + II mirror, the speed is enough, I don’t complain about noise. The NAS is far away, but there are no special crunches, knocks or buzzing near. Let's see how long they live. I haven't had a dead Seagate since the 486s, but it should someday, right? Cons below: To be honest, I'm

I work with him with pleasure and work with others, the main thing is that he is cold, fast and quiet, he does not bother with his buzzing, as was the case with the old disk

took for us 4pcs. 4tb, I was looking for disks with CMR technology, of which there are not very many and which are expensive, this disk is relatively cheap, in my asustor there is a utility specifically for these disks that monitors health, while everything is working fine, the piece of iron itself is 2m from the bed, when I sleep I can hardly hear it

Well, this is a fiasco. My WD green, 10 years old, has 50k hours and absolutely clean SMART. Here the problems got out after 200 hours. The SeaTools diagnostic program hides the SMART table quite cunningly. Type passed and everything, no decoding like the same CristalDiscInfo. That is, according to SeaTools, you will not understand whether the disk is pouring or not. Until all the space allotted for them is clogged with bads, the disk will be considered in a satisfactory condition. On the other

I urgently purchased two disks in an array to save data from old WD Green (served since 2022). I bought in the official store of the 2022 retailer through Aliexpress. Managed to purchase for 8200. (at the end of April 2022). Literally the next day, the cost of the disc increased to 10 thousand. and a week later they began to cost 16-19 thousand. in 2022 retailers. In my opinion, this is disgusting in relation to consumers, taking into account the fact that their cost has not changed on European

In my build in the Fractal Design Define 7 case, only hard drives are audible. I bought this drive based on the positive experience of operating the ST2022VN004. As a result, the ST4000VN008 has a distinct head banging on startup, and is generally noisier than the neighboring ST2022VN004. Let's look at the reliability of the disk, but there is experience with a colleague ST2022VM003 - it lasted for 4 years, then fell down.

Some pros: The order came quickly. I received Pyaterochka in the terminal, at first the terminal hung, but the problem was solved quickly With its cons: I ordered a 4 TB hard drive, a fragile product, but they packed it in one cardboard box, put a sheet of paper on top and that's it. I hope the HDD came in working condition

Bought two ST4000VN008 for home NAS use - home photo/video storage, raid0. Writing and reading is very rare. After 3 years and 1 month, reallocated sectors began to appear on both disks almost simultaneously. Two WD Purples have been spinning side by side in the video surveillance server for 4 years now, which have passed through themselves 15 times more data (769921 GB) and at least henna. Seagate - stable "well done". Just as 10 years ago they did not know how to make discs, they still have…

Took in amazon delivery to the point of issue for pickup. Terrible product packaging! The disc was placed in an empty cardboard box, which is several times larger than the disc, the disc inside dangles as it wants. It’s good that delivery is within one city, but if you send it to another city? But the most disgusting thing is that after the order, a representative of the city called and offered an additional guarantee from the store in case "if something happens, let's say, on the way." It is…

Installed in nas synology, everything works without problems, synology on the site has a list of tested hard drives for compatibility, this hard drive was in it.

The disk is normal if you have a noisy PC or not for home use and will get caught without the clang of it :) Another feature if you do not use it for a long time falls into sleep and wakes up after 2-3 seconds. In general, the disk, as it is written in the description "network drive", there the level of noise, vibration is especially unimportant and works without stopping.

Creating for myself a powerful and most importantly minimally noisy or even silent computer, I came across the fact that hard drives at 7200 rpm are the loudest in a modern system unit, they make louder noise than fans. I switched to SSD as a whole, but I still had to leave one hard drive for large files. I replaced the Seagate Barracuda 7200 2Tb and Toshiba P300 2Tb with this 4Tb hard drive, now the silence of the computer is impressive, I'm satisfied. The slowdown speed is not noticeable…

So, I tried it and won't do it again. This time, probably, I will put WD. Has pros: The description of the manufacturer of hard drives was flattering: "NAS drives: NAS for 1-24 bays, desktop servers and PCs with RAID arrays, multimedia servers" and the declared 3 year warranty. The HDD was replaced under warranty without any problems. The service is well organised. With its cons: Two HDDs were purchased on 03/27/2022. Were installed in a QNAP TS-219P+ home disk storage. First call. A month…

I bought 3 of these for my home PC in a RAID0 array. It was very important not to take a disk with tiles, I did not lose. Before setting up, I checked each disk in SMART and ran the tests - everything is fine, the disks are new, there were no errors, they were read quickly. I combined it normally, ran the tests again, measured the speed - almost 500 Mb / s for reading and writing, that is, the speed of an SSD with a capacity of 12 GB. Happy as an elephant.
