Questions & Answers

CATE B : I am looking to expand my Drobo and currently have (2) Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200rpm drives. I have been told keeping all the disks with the same rotational rate will help improve the system and prevent failures. Will this work well with my current system? It says this drive uses "Intelliseek" to change rotational speeds for optimum performance. ThanksANDREW R : I'd recommend contacting the manufacturer of your DROBO unit prior to purchase. They would have the best answer for your specific question.

Works well

Works as advertised. I chose the WD green because of higher reliability. Warranty is 2 years. I use as an external backup HDD for my MacBook Air connected via a USB dual docking station by Startech. Make sure the dock supports 4TB drives other wise when formatting the HDD will show only 2TB if that is what your dock supports. I chose the Startech dual dock with clone capability supporting 4TB @ 7200 RPM. In future I can fit another HDD in the 2nd dock slot. The WD came right up and easily formatted albeit tardy because of its large capacity. It's very quiet. I invested in this larger drive for the long term. It's less expensive in the long term. No additional software needed.
