Wow!

I purchased multiple WD drives for my NAS, and unfortunately, one of them was faulty. However, my interaction with customer support was a very positive. They were highly responsive and supportive in assisting me to find a solution.
The drives are quiet and fast - perfect for my new NAS.
I would recommend this to a friend!

2 out of 4 drives purchased died on the first day

I purchased four 20 TB hard drives. When I installed them, two out of the four had issues. One would not display a temperature reading on the SMART check and would not install. The other was working but a few hours after data was transferred to the drive, it started making loud clicking noises and failed the SMART check. I am currently in the middle of getting replacements, but I have to wait on shipping before I receive new drives. I am not confident about the reliability after 50% of the drives failed on the first day. Only time will tell, at least it has a 5 year warranty.

I purchased 2 red 20TB hard drives but only 1 of them could be recognized and functioning correctly after I received them. Even I received a replacement later on, I am now worried, very worried about their lifespan.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A little bit loud, but work well

Really, the only (minor) complaint I have is these drives are a bit noisy. I have them in a NAS RAID 1 setup and they have performed flawlessly.
