The 6TB Western Digital Red is the first 3.5-inch desktop hard disk to offer home users such an enormous storage capacity in a single disk. The alternatives, HGST's Helium He6 and Seagate Enterprise Capacity 6TB , are both intended for the enterprise market, and cost approaching twice as much as the...

The Red 6TB is the latest and highest-capacity NAS hard disk from Western Digital, a company with much experience in making hard disks specifically designed for NAS devices. Indeed, it's easily the highest capacity internal hard disk we've yet seen.

I own a mac mini. I like to have 1 cloned back up drive and 1 time machine drive. If you use this for a time machine drive it will be able to do a lot of backups maybe more then 1 year.. Depends on how much you use the pc. Price was good it is fast enough to back stuff up.

Purchased two drives and added to my storage setup. First one has failed within 1 month, with the drive making clicking noises. Drives will fail I do understand that and in my experience WD has been the most reliable, so I'll keep buying them.

excellent hard disk, stays on all the time and doesnt spin down, very quiet too, using it with a 256gb ssd and runs fine.

While APH Networks is probably not the first -- or even the second, third, or fourth -- website to visit if you are looking for relationship advice, I think we had some great points posted in the opening of my Western Digital Red WD40EFRX 4TB review back in June 2014.

Good

WAY TO GO NEWEGG on the packaging of these hard drives! Each drive came in their own hard drive air bag and box that were air bagged inside another larger box. They arrived in perfect shape ;-) Much better packaging than I have seen in the past. KUDOS NEWEGG!

Large capacity, cool and quiet; No problems or bad sectors when installed in my Synology with any of the 5 drives; All drives passed with flying colors; I bought 5 2TB drives of the WD Red line 3 years ago and all of the drives are still going strong and hope the same for these

None really just wish they carried a 5 year warranty for the price; Not the fastest NAS either but are perfect for backing up my other NAS which has the faster enterprise drives

This HDD delivers. Great for storing archive videos, or things in general. Runs at a decent speed. Great Value.

Plenty of Storage -6 TB

Awesome product i have a bunch of WD Red drives over the years, and have been great for log term storage. I usually transfer files using a HD toaster.
