There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Very happy with the choice, so far so good. Glad I dodged the SMR bullet!
N.B./Public service message: the CMR/SMR was a public relations disaster for Western Digital this year - they have now addressed this by clarifying the technology clearly within the RED line. If you are a home user like I am am, and you are buying drives for NAS use, make sure its a CMR drive (WD101EFAX is a CMR drive).
Guess I was unlucky with this model.
Amazon refunded, so no problem, and I ordered another model that worked fine.
Ask me in a couple of yesrs ...

他の方も書いていますが爆熱です
しかも使い始めて1ヶ月経たないでMFT破損
RMAを使って交換したら薄い段ボール商品箱に入った破損したブリスターパックと破損した商品
あれ?RMAで送り返すとき結構きびしめに
商品保護して送れとか書いてましたよね?
この商品またRMAしなきゃいけないの?
送り賃こっち負担なんだけど
しかもAmazonに返品出来ないんだなこれ
もう最悪なんですけど
Western Digitalの商品はもう買わねーわ

PS: encore une suppression de mon commentaire et c'est plainte a la dgccrf

Only use SMR if you plan to save smaller files and have backups saved on other drives. It is unsuitable for data for businesses or anything precious which isn't saved elsewhere. Temporary cache only. IMHO.
Look for the FRX drives over FAX. This is the only way to tell CMR to SMR.

Los buenos, los CMR de toda la vida, son los de la serie EFRX
Los lentos como este son los de la serie EFAX.
Si no fuese por el trastorno de devolverlo y esperar a uno nuevo con el raid degradado, en esta época de plazos desconocidos por el covid 19, lo devolvía ahora mismo
