Quiet and initialized without any issues. Four of these drives configured as RAID-5 are being used in a NAS. Too early to comment on their reliability but if they are anything like my other WD internal drives, they should last for years.

Quiet and initialized without any issues. Four of these drives configured as RAID-5 are being used in a NAS. Too early to comment on their reliability but if they are anything like my other WD internal drives, they should last for years.
Bought drive to replace a failing WD20EARS but it didn't have the same amount of sectors. These drives only have 3,907,024,065 sectors.
Works as advertised; Great price point
WD doesn't advertise this drive's sector count anywhere
This is the perfect product for heavy data users that can't afford enterprise grade HDDs, such as the WD RE4. It has a range of features that make it better suited than any other consumer HDD for RAID arrays or ZFS pools, especially for multi-user network environments.
Durable; Easy To Install; Energy Efficient; Fast; Highly Compatible; Optimized; Quiet; Reliable
Because the HD was Package for retail selling there was no damage during shippment (Double boxed); it work on installation. The unit was been running for several months without any trouble.
This disk is part of Western Digital's new "Red Caviar" range, which sits between "Green" (basic) and "Black" (higher-spec). The manufacturers suggest that it is well-suited to NAS (network attached storage) use.
it's rebrand of the WD Green need i really say more the WD Greens was known for their reliability and near silent performance and so far there rep has stayed the same.
A bit loud but still works. Had this HDD for over a year and it still works the same as it arrived. Keep in mind that this HDD is not good as a primary drive if you need to read/write from it constantly (such as gaming) as it's speed is rather slow and can make quite a bit of sound at times.
The WD Red's are a great hard drive, they come with a 3 year warranty and are ideally suited to NAS storage devices. I wish I bought more when they came on offer, but 2 will be ok for now :)
What can I say? I've never gone wrong purchasing a Western Digital hard drive. It installed easily and provided space for my precious files. I'm happy!
Perfect to store games and movies on but I would still recommend getting a ssd for your os
