    No problem in my Asustor 2 bays

    WD Red Pro 6TB disks for Nas bought 5 months apart so they are not in the same series. Formatted in my PC, very quiet, I wondered if the HDDs were even running, and then installed in the Nas in RAID 1. Really no problems at all.

    Do not buy - opinion after 2 purchases

    Over 3 months, two disks bought, two defective disks.
    The first one not recognized by NAS, the second one with 2000 defective clusters at first, then 5000 a few weeks later...

    Very good but....

    I received a disk out of the 4 that was not recognised, so without an external case, it was impossible to start up.
    I had to exchange it without any problems, but the disk was received with some cluster errors. Can't send it back because of foreign departure.

    I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use this product, but I'm sure I'll be able to use it again.
