Review: Great NAS drive! - Normally I buy WD red pro drives for my NAS, but this l drive is currently priced cheaper for reasons I don’t understand. Not complaining! It’s a solid, high spec enterprise grade drive with a no quibbles 5 year extended warranty. I had zero issues registering the drive. Used this drive to switch out a 10 year old 3TB WD Red in my Synology NAS. The SHR RAID rebuilt itself with no issues, and it is happily whirring away. I was concerned it might be a lot noisier than the REDs, but I haven’t noticed any real difference from the larger capacity RED Pro drives that I already have. 10TB seems to be the cost/capacity sweet-spot right now. I’d definitely buy again next time I need to replace a drive
Review: Good drives backed up with 5yr warranty - A little noisier than WD reds but they’re in a NAS in the server room (aka cupboard under the stairs) so not an issue at all. 5yr warranty and got them at the same price as reds so very happy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This hard drive is incredibly noisy. Like it is eating celery non-stop all day. Why?**
A: Could it be that you do not have it installed on mounts with rubber isolation?  Are you using it as an operating system drive or swap drive?  Mine are all whisper quiet, but used for large file storage and are mounted in plastic cages with rubber isolators.  Any drive is going to be noisy if it's hard mounted to metal and has to seek all the time.

**Q: Does this drive have international WD warranty?**
A: That's a legal question and the answer may depend on where you are located.  You should ask Western Digital directly.  Also, a warning: some sellers here on Amazon sell OEM drives which do not have a Western Digital warranty.  This has happened to me three times.  In each case, Amazon has helped me exchanged the drive for one that was under warranty.  I make it a habit to register every new drive with Western Digital as soon as I receive it.  That way I'm sure it is under warranty.

**Q: compatible with ext4**
A: Yes.

**Q: My dell t3600 does not support 12tb drive. has anyone been successful in using a simple add-on storage controller with 12tb? what brand/model?**
A: Hi, the problem is coming from the BIOS and from the Brand of the hard disk. try to update your bios and/or go to the website of dell to download specific fix on the support page.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gold medal to this HDD! 🥇
*by M***R on 20 September 2021*

Great drive, WD know their stuff - much like the rest of the world, I went off Seagate a long time ago (they're probably decent enough now) but I've stuck with WD for years and, hopefully without jinxing it, they've been wonderfully reliable in my Unraid NAS setup 👍 WD Golds have been somewhat good value for money - anything <=£200 for an 8TB unit is a steal in my opinion. Enterprise grade reliability and not too loud either - they're a little on the warm side but adequate cooling sorts that out. Highly recommended! I'm running a mixture of WD Reds & Golds in 3-8TB capacities and they're brilliant.
