Unfortunately, I bought a "like-new" product that was supposedly in perfect condition. However, after installing it in the NAS, I discovered that the drive was showing I/O errors [unable to read data, so writing wouldn’t work either] and had already clocked up 15,000 hours of operation. This experience has made me reconsider future purchases on Alza, as it seems that the quality checks on goods are either inadequate or carried out only superficially.

I almost didn't buy them when I read the reviews here about the noise - I've got a backup running on my NAS now, I've got it two metres away from me, it's audible of course, but totally fine, everything is surprisingly quiet.
The Synology DS 223j runs without a problem (2x12TB)
So the packaging doesn't really match the price.

I bought it as a replacement for a NAS for a piece that started showing bad sectors. This happened after 11 years of operation, which I consider a great result.

Used in an external box. When connected directly via USB3, speeds are around 240 MBps. The disc is quiet even when the box is lying directly on the table, only when writing are sometimes heard headers in such a case. After I placed the box on a flexible pad, even this sound is almost inaudible. That's why I chose the 5500 rpm version, which should be quiet. For me, the disk replaces the ready-made solution "in plastic" from WD, where a person buys literally a rabbit in the bag and then is surprised that his disk (unsurprisingly with shingle SMR) after less than two years of connection to the router goes away (operated as a home network drive connected to the router, samba). The Red Plus is a network drive, so it should be able to withstand that kind of traffic. I can't judge the durability yet, but in other aspects I am very satisfied after a month of operation (speed, temperatures, noise level. )
quiet (5500 rpm)
quick
