Pros: It’s quiet in use and when idle – just like the Seagate Pipeline drives we’ve had for a couple of years. Vibration and noise are truly minimal when standing upright in a hard drive dock on a shelf. One might think that when installed and attached in a horizontal position within a PC case it would be virtually silent, and that would not surprise me. Used as a single drive i obtained the following results: CrystalDiskMark Sequential Read/Write in USB 3.0 HDD dock: 175/175 MB/sec. HDTune…

Pros: A trusted brand, engineered for a specific job, Available as a 5900 or 7200RPM drive and in multiple capacities to fit your needs, 64MB Cache. (on a side note: Hey Seagate, I love the Icons that have been developed of each of the families of drives!) Cons: Access time does take a small hit on the 5200 RPM unit but for most users like me for home entertainment purposes it will perform well enough. If you require faster access times just go with the 7200 RPM unit instead, but then you…

Pros: The storage capacity of this drive is amazing, more storage space than a regular would know what to do with. Huge 256MB cache. 1 million hours of expected uptime before a failure, 180TB read/write a year. Doing some real life write tests and it was about 194MB’s, not to much off their claimed speeds but hardware difference and product quality affect these speeds. The drive does stay generally cool during long read/write cycles. Pretty quiet drive noise operation when it’s writing….

Pros: A normal household could put all their data on this drive and still have room. The speed of the drive is as advertised considering hardware and use. Noise is what you would expect from the usual HDD you’ve been buying and using for years, in that way it is quiet. I could not hear the drive running over the fans in the case. With case open and the system running as quiet as possible, it sounded about the same as the other drives in my system. 3 year warranty is on the upper end of a…

Pros: The IronWolf series of Seagate drives are intended for NAS installations. Upon receiving the drive, I popped it into one of my hot swap bays and the drive powered right up. The drive has eight 1.75GB platters spinning at 7200 rpm giving you 14TB, which results in 12.7 TB of usable space. The good news: This drive is fast; very fast in the world of spinner drives, that is. Seagate rates the sustained transfer rate for this drive at 210 MB/s. In synthetic benchmarks (ATTO, HD Tach,…

Pros: OK, so its not the baddest, the Pro edition appears to have a higher warranty but otherwise the stats seem to be the same. This drive is the biggest and fastest consumer hard drive available on the market with 16TB of storage, 7200 RPM and 256MB of cache besting their competitors by a few TB. To put this into perspective, I have entire NAS units with 4-6 disks that don’t have this much storage. Performance is incredible as you would expect, rivaling the fastest speeds you will find in…

Pros: Great price per TB. Seagate service in my experience has always been more positive. I had a dead on arrival drive but Seagate got me set back up so I consider the Seagate portion of this to be a Pro. Shipping all spinning disk has the risk of DOA. Seagate sent me shipping labels prepaid to send the drive back and recieve a new one. So that was nice. Their support was always pleasant though may take ~12-18 hours for each response back and forth. A receipt will be required if you need a…

Pros: It doesn’t get hot, decently fast. average write speed is around 200MB/s with maximum being right around 215MB/s. Tested With a Intel® Z77 Sata 3 Controller. I also tested this in my Qnas Qnap Network NAS and it works just fine there, but is bottlenecked by the Network transfer speed of 117MB/s This drive is designed to be reliable. Most of the features built into the IronWolf drives are designed to make it perfect for Network attached storage and Multi Drive enterprise type servers….
