Review on Synology SATA SAT5200 480GB SAT5200 480G by Andrew Agarwal

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Appropriate for a branded drive, they work really cool

Only branded drives like this are compatible with the new larger rackmount Synology NAS. They make a low-frequency rumble, which is actually quite good. performance seems good. The documentation suggests that the drive's firmware is updated via the NAS. You can get more storage space for less money by using smaller competitive brand NAS devices. They work very well, typically 26-29c versus 33-38 for WD and Seagate drives in other NAS units in the same room.

Pros
  • Holding my fists
