Great Performance and a quick easy install
I was looking for a higher capacity hard drive with good performance. I found the WD Red drive to be every thing I was looking for. It was very easy to install and it made me lose focus on the time it took to load because it was just that fast. I always look for the biggest bang for my buck and I do believe I found it! The drive has really nothing negative to say about it. I would buy another just like it!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Fast and good
Bought two of these to use in RAID 1 NAS and they work like a charm. Only downside is that when using RAID 1 they are even slower than a normal HDD. I don't think it matters since RAID 1 is used for backup and you write much less than you read from it and the read speeds are as great as a normal HDD. When using them to max (both reading and writing a lot of data) they are still more silent than my fans so I have never heard then.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

WD Red Plus Means Reliability
WD Red (now Plus) drives with CMR are the best for NAS use. I should know, I have a bunch in different sizes. They are uber reliable. Their slow 5400 rpm speed means they write data more slowly than 7200 rpm drives, but they run cooler and last longer.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good Drives
This drive is made for NAS usage just what I was looking for, if I fill it I will pop them out and put in a bigger drives in my unit they are very reliable , nice a quiet in my NAS unit, would recommend Western Digital any day. In all of my years working on computers and big storage units they don't fail if you keep them cool better than average and fast transfer rates. cant go wrong.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

WD NAS WD30EFRX 3TB Drive
Installed 2 of these drives in a network attached storage device. Operating system quickly recognized the devices and paired them in a RAID configuration. Initial tests reported OK. Ran extended tests. Hours later, drives reported no errors or bad sectors. These drives should last several years if properly maintained. I'll purchased higher capacity WD drives in the future.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Used WD Red (CMR) 3TB NAS drives at a great price!
Recently I set up a home network NAS server, two actually; one new and one purchased used on ebay. The used one is a 4-bay unit that arrived with 3 of these WD30EFRX 3TB NAS drives, in a Raid-5 array. That left the fourth bay empty, and as the the 3 WD drives were all matching I opted to find another drive to match them and set up a new array with all four bays in use. These older drives are not the WD Red drives being sold today. The specs appear to be the same, but there's a major difference between these older Red's and today's drives: These drives use CMR technology, while today's Red's use SMR. I'm not going to waste the space defining these terms, but I recommend you research them as to how they differ. If you want the superior CMR in a WD Red NAS drive today you must buy WD Red Plus. There's a big difference in price. Since the 3 WDs I inherited with my NAS server were not new, but in perfect condition with no errors and great specs, I purchased a used drive here on ebay. The price was excellent, shipping was quick and the drive checks out perfectly. Of course, used is used, but let's be real here. I'm running a home network for my pleasure, and to create adequate storage for tons of media and information on all kinds of subjects I've been collecting since the1980's. These WD30EFRX drives are perfect for this! Remember, NAS is for storage, not for backup, so I backup my storage. I'm also watching the drives' conditions for deterioration. You cannot beat the quality of these drives for the prices they are being sold at!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Awesome!
Worked excellently and quietly! Used as my secondary HDD in my gaming rig to give me a total of 4 TB of space to store all my digital content (games and save files). I love this HDD and would definitely recommend it to others!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

good for NAS box
I have 4 of these installed in a NAS (network attached storage) box that is connected to my wireless router. This is configured as a RAID storage box. All users have access to select files on this box (provided they have the correct password!) thru the WiFi connection. These drives run 24/7. This is a replacement for a failed drive that had been in use for almost 3 years! Very Reliable!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great Drive for the Money
The drive is large enough to use as a backup and a storage drive. It is fast and responsive and an all around solid drive. I am very happy with it!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
