Review on 📁 Western Digital 14TB WD Red Plus NAS Internal Hard Drive HDD - High Capacity Data Storage Solution with 5400 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, CMR and 512 MB Cache - Reliable 3.5" WD140EFFX Drive by Adam Edison ᠌

Its pros: At the time of purchase (~ 1.5 years ago) it had the largest volume (out of 14 TB, 12.7 are available) Productive - films of 80 + GB are perfectly reproduced from it, there are no delays when rewinding at all. Series on for highly loaded network servers, still works flawlessly. Got cons: Terribly cracking under load close to 90%. It is simply impossible to listen to such a crack for a long time. Even at 50%, the crack is already very noticeable and interferes with work, even despite the fact that the system unit is under the table. Defragmentation (by name, that is, so that the entire file lies on the disk sequentially through O & O Defrag) does not help - the heads rush around the disks like crazy. Mb for network storage is not critical, but for a home computer it’s definitely a minus, minus 2 stars for this. Against the background of WD red 10 TB, which is almost inaudible under the same load, this one simply roars.
