Hot and Noisy
Very noisy hard drive with an infernal "cloc' cloc". I have 4 in a NAS for my media player. I don't need to describe it to you.
I've got 4 of them in a NAS for my media player and I don't need to describe it to you, but they heat up terribly so much that it's impossible to touch them. Hopefully these two drawbacks will not affect their life span.
It is certain that I will not buy any more.
I had made this choice for the 7200 RPM and that they were dedicated to NAS. So I went back to the "Seagate BarraCuda 4Tb (ST4000DM004)" which is dead silent and doesn't get hot.
I'm not discouraging anyone, just informing them what to expect when choosing these drives.
