tooviral Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Bought a couple of these about 6 months ago and shucked them for the bare drives which were ST8000DM004 models. They are both now starting to show read errors. Just a warning to others. Edited April 10, 2018 by tooviral Quote Link to comment
BRiT Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Did you preclear or do other extensive testing before putting into your array? Quote Link to comment

Vr2Io Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) So bad. Seems Amazon customer comment also report not reliable, so I haven't buy one even price / speed also good. Edited April 12, 2018 by Benson Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 For whatever it's worth note that these models have a <55TB/year workload rating, i.e., just the monthly parity check will put them considerably over that. Quote Link to comment
