Review: Fully met my expectations. Excellent NAS drive for RAID - The WD 1TB WDBMMA0010HNC-NRSN drive kit fully met my expectations. I bought this drive to make a RAID1 pair. The drive performed well in my home-built FreeNAS server and provided better network storage performance than expected without any glitches or issues. When compared with 750GB WD Black drives in the same server the RED drives appeared to give slightly better perforance in NAS. Maybe the NAS specific firmware isn't just marketing. For more, read on... I wanted to build a NAS server for windows sharing, iSCSI, and nfs sharing. I had an old 1U "pizza box" server with a core 2 dual CPU and 4GB of ram available plus SATA II (300MBPS) channels. I got one of the WDBMMA0010HNC-NRSN WD-red drives through the vine programs and I bought a second through desertcart to build this NAS server. This drive is the retail package. It came in a nice box with 4 screws for mounting and a little bit of very fine printed material which I didn't bother to read. If a "bare drive" is fine and you don't care about packaging you might want to consider another listing for the 1TB WD Red drives which may be at a lower price for essentially the same thing. The software I used to drive the NAS is the excellent (especially at the price) FreeNAS server. It installs on a USB stick of at least 2GB. My old box had several USB 2.1 ports, so no problem. I configured the drives in a RAID 1 mirrored array using software RAID (instead of the FRAID (fake raid) built into the motherboard chip set. I first built the server with the WD Red drives first and ran some casual tests with windows shares and iSCSI. Using windows network or iSCSI I could saturate my Gigabit Ethernet with no problem. Performance was not an issue. They ran great and I had no complaints over several days of use. This isn't too surprising as many NAS boxes use little Intel Atom processors. Next I did a comparison by replacing the WD Red drives with WD Black 750GB drives I had on the shelf. I didn't see much difference but I felt that copies of lots of small/medium files completed more quickly with the Red drives. Maybe the caching algorithm of drive was just better tuned for NAS on the Red drives. A plus is the Time Limited Error Recovery (TLER) which is an important part of drives that are designed for RAID deployment. And having a drive that is designed to be on 24X7 is great. I've switched back to the WD Red drives in my home-built NAS and I'll update this review as I live with the drives and report if there are any problems or notable excellence that stands out. Hope this bit of experience helps someone. Update: Dec 3, 2013 I have recently gotten a Buffalo LinkStation 420 2TB 2-DriveNAS Personal Cloud Storage and Media Server In comparing my home built FreeNAS system (on old core duo hardware) with two of these drives to the LinkStation with 2 Toshiba drives was interesting. The FreeNAS system with the WD NAS drives (both systems with RAID1) ran about 50% faster than the LinkStation. You can check my review on the LinkStation for more information about my comparison. The LinkStation might be a better option to get diskless for a very low price use these drives inside it. The small footprint and low power make it an attractive option. Bottom-line it seems there may be something to the NAS specific firmware of these drives.
Review: Excellent Large Capacity Consumer Drive - I will try to keep this short. I have owned over 10 Western Digital hard-drives and I have only ever had one go bad on me, but it was in a very hot slim height PC and that was 5 years ago. These drives have continued the Western Digital legacy (at least for me, maybe I am lucky). I own 4 of the WD Red 2 TB Hard Drives. 2 of the drives I bought here on desertcart, 2 of the drives I bought a week later on the Egg Site... desertcart had decent packaging, Egg had probably more packaging than was needed (and that is never a bad thing when it comes to hard-drives) I installed the first 2 drives, absolutely no problems. I immediately ran long hard drive tests using Seagate Seatools. 5 hours later and the drives are completely fine. I am using these to store large 1080p movie files (18GB's a piece usually). I use one drive to mirror the other using a program called Synchronicity. This is for the simplest (and in my opinion best) form of redundancy. I ran the long harddrive tests every 2 days for the next 6 days and the 2 drives passed completely fine on both of them (they were both nearly full from consolidating my movie collection to these drives). I bought 2 more of these drives on Egg when they were on sale and I had the exact same experience as before, they are perfect. I now have a total of 8TB of storage from these drives. (4TB for storing files, and 4TB for redundancy). Pros: Good value depending on when you buy (I got first batch for $106.99 a piece and the second batch for $99 a piece) I wouldn't pay over $120 for these. Reliable (I have had these for about a month and have ran many long drive tests and have had no errors so far. I will continue to do so and update this review) Cons: I don't have any thing bad to say about these drives. Other Advice: If you receive a drive that wasn't packaged well THEN RETURN IT. You can only blame yourself if you use and don't return a drive that is packaged incorrectly, and then the drive goes bad.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have drives for home NAS solutions
*by A***. on May 14, 2015*

A long time ago I bought a NAS for backups and for a central store for my files as well as my wife's files (music, photos, videos, etc.) Unfortunately, the drives that came with the NAS were not RAID-ready drives. The company I am sure wanted to save money, and provide a lower price point for customers, but that lower cost comes at a hefty price in the form of a drive that cannot recover when configured in a RAID 0 array when a sector goes bad. In normal desktop drives, if a sector goes bad it will retry reading it to get enough data to attempt to fix the problem, which can be a slow process. In a RAID environment, a drive that does that is marked as a failed drive. The RAID is not tolerant of faults like that, especially in a RAID 0 configuration where all drives are treated as a single unit. One drive fails, the whole thing is broken and all the data is lost. That's exactly what happened to me. Bad sector, long retry, the NAS timed out waiting to read from the drive, drive marked failed, BYE BYE DATA. Harsh lesson to learn, and I no longer use RAID 0 because of that. I also no longer use desktop drives. Enter the WD Red drives, which are fault tolerant for scenarios like this. They include a technology called "time limited error recovery" (TLER). Basically it's a very short window of time where the drive tries to read a sector, and if it's unable to read it within that window, it simply returns an error instead of retrying over and over to read the sector. This avoids the pitfall of other drives which will cause the RAID controller to mark the drive failed. I slowly replaced each drive in my NAS as they inevitably failed, thanks to not being fault tolerant. The last drive was replaced in December 2014, and the first one I replaced was back in Jan 2014. I have yet to have a single issue with these drives. The NAS drive is used fairly frequently, too, with large video files and backups being pushed on it from our PCs. The NAS is on 24x7 as well, so it never gets a rest. With a three year warranty, I'm really loving these drives so far.
