Upgrading from WD Red Pro 8TB to Wd Red Pro 20TB and notices the new drives spins up is louder.

Good value for the HDD, all disks are registered in WD for warranty just fine. Using those for my new media server in Z Raid combination, no issues so far.

Ordered Feb 22, 2026. Still sitting in ordered status. I've heard nothing from WD about the order. My NAS will be out of warranty before I ever get the drives to put in it. Horrible service.

It does what was promised and it is the most reliable hard disk we ever use in our NAS

So far so good. A little noisy but if that's what concerns you about a hard drive, I suggest a priority shift.

This has been a great HDD for my NAS. Easy to install and drive has been performing very well with minimal noise.

Drive was DOA - had to return for a replacement, and had to pay shipping for the return. Has been two weeks since drive was sent back and no replacement yet. Not impressive.

I used to trust WD very much for the quality. Now I've changed my mind based on 2 NAS HDD ordered. THEY ALL CAME DEAD ON ARRIVAL. I cannot believe it! I will certainly move to seagate or other brand instead. I connected them to my computer either by USE or on motherboard, the 12T plus model never even started, the 18T model makes weird noise first and both my mac and PC could not even recognized it. My synology NAS cannot find 12T plus model. Although it can recognize 18T pro model, it cannot even initiate it. They are just trash. Now I know why WD cut down the price!!! I believe they are all used!!! These NAS HDDs are trash!!!!! SHAM ON YOU!!!

FAST AND QUIET IN A 4 BAY NAS. SO FAR NO PROBLEMS - I HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY.

Original drive was sent DOA, but customer service assisted and sent out new drive even before the old one was sent back. The new drive is in excellent condition and functioning properly.

I would rather this have shipped in a box vice a mailer envelope. The box was pretty rounded off at the corners. Wholly relying on MFGR packaging doesn't always work well. It's three days in service so I suspect it's going to last.

The Nas works great. But still working on improving the efficiency of NAS system.

Bought for my NAS as it was cheaper here than anywhere else. Drive works great and delivery was prompt. Will purchase again.

Tried a Seagate one first, and it failed immediately. Have had good success with WD Red in the past, although sticking to Pro version only because of downgrades on regular Red version

Hard to give a good review after only having it for a week. It's a little noisier than I would prefer, but it seems fast for a standard mechanical hard drive.

Bought this Red Pro to replace a faulty drive on my NAS. Went with Pro (instead of regular Red) for the added shock protection and longer (almost twice) rated workload rate (300 vs 180 TB/year). My specific application of NAS will likely not hit that high of workload but the higher rating gives me peace in mind (placebo effect or not, it is my preference to have the highest expected performance for what I am willing to pay, especially if on sale ;-) ).

When a hard drive doesn't fail out of the box, its a good thing! All systems up and running.

Yet to have a WD Red PRO or RED HD fail. Reason for this purchase was upgrading a 3T mirror to 6T mirror. Setting at my desk I can see 24 WD REDs at work. With no HD failures since I switch to WD RED I question my installing raid 6 controller.

These are excellent drives with the durability of NAS and near performance of the Black drives. Fast and quiet. Use the 8TB mainly for backup and the 4TB for RAID. So far no failures going back about 2 years. 5 year warranty. They do run a bit warm but not excessive. The main downside is they are a little pricey.

Large Capacity, fast. Reliably added to a raid array.

I am using them in (3) RAID 6 arrays and (8) mirror arrays and beginning to wonder why I am wasting drive space on the RAID 6 arrays when I have yet to have a drive failure after almost 3 years. I have upgraded from RED PRO 3tb to 6tb and the 3tb are still good just need more space. You may ask why RAID 6 and the answer is I used another brand and had problems with HD failures.
