Review on Reliable Storage Solution: Western Digital WD Green WD30EZRS 3 TB 3.5" Internal Hard Drive by Wiktor Jak ᠌

I am satisfied with the purchase, but I had to spend some time to bring the hard drive to the desired state: to deal with the features of Advanced Format (affects the speed of data writing) and GPT (allows you to work with partitions larger than 2TB). Increased head parking time under Linux using idle3-tools. The section was made using parted. As a result, I got a 3TB ext4 partition with ~120MB/s write speed.
