How does this compare to a WD Red?

Found this. Not sure how good a comparison it is.

FWIW I have the 12TB versions in my NAS (ST12000VN0007, 32.6TB RAID 5 array) and they are rock solid for my needs (media server). My only complaint is that they are much louder than the WD Reds they replaced, might be important for some.

$33/TB is extremely expensive. Get this https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B088S9PWNM when it drops to $398 and shuck it-- it has an Exos X16 inside which is the best drive Seagate makes.

I remember that at some point there was an issue with using 10TB IronWolfs in a Synology NAS. The smaller sizes were fine but the 10TB wasn't. Does anyone know if that's still the case?

I'm asking on behalf of someone else, not for me because I'm a true RFD'er who shucks 10TB external drives to get at the Barracuda Pros inside.

Thanks for the info. I'll hunt down the fix.

While you're not wrong and the drive is unlikely to change for a while, one has to know what they're getting into before they go down the shucking route.
Warranties (may) become void and the internal drive may change.
This actually happened on the 10TB. It went from a Barracuda Pro to an Iron Wolf.

Buying a retail drive comes with 100% warranty and you know exactly what drive you're getting.

That said, I'm a shucker.

Do you not have anything else to do rather than argue with strangers on the internet

Nope. That's why I'm on the internet arguing with strangers. If I had anything better to do I'd probably be doing it.
