Love you man! For the fact that you're so passionate about what you do. I'm a bit on the fence over these drives. Luckily, the Swedish stores are clear on whether they're NT or NE drives. My problem is that the Exos 7E8 (ST8000NM000A) and 7E10 (ST8000NM017B) drives cost 20-25% less than the Pro NT drives, at least on the Swedish market. The thing is, I'm not sure if it's a no-brainer to just go for the Exos drives or if there are advantages to the Pro NT drives (that are relevant to me) that might make the higher price point worth it. I'm looking at 8TB drives to use internally in my PC. I already have a regular Ironwolf 8TB that I've had for a couple of years (ST8000VN0022, total TBW=40) and the plan was always to expand on that for extra space, speed and a bit of redundancy. The funny thing is that the 8TB Exos drives are even cheaper than the current gen regular Ironwolf drives (ST8000VN004). While I don't really need more performance than the regular IW, because whichever drive I get it's gonna be limited by the slightly older IW drive I already have, the Exos drives are actually cheaper... I do want durable drives to keep for many years to come. But then again, I don't want drives that may be significantly noisier... But it doesn't make sense to go for a _more expensive_ drive that is just quieter but slower (matters less though) and significantly less durable with the regular IW. That's why I'm considering the IW Pro NT, because I'm suspecting they may be a bit quieter than the Exos drives and basically the same performance and durability (even though I'm performance capped). So, either I go maximum noise, performance and durability for the lowest price, or I go (hopefully) slightly quieter, same performance & durability for 25-30% more money... Another point that's important to me, since they're going internally in my PC, is that they need to handle being suspended in and waking up from sleep mode without issues. And I would assume the Exos drives handle that just as well as the other, but since Seagate is not even listing a power consumption rating for sleep/suspended mode I'm thinking there's a slight chance they're not well adapted for that, which makes me lean further toward the IW/IW Pro drives, which do have an official rating for that. And I've been moving back and forth on this for more than a year I think. I'm at my wits end and hoping you could offer some advice.

I bought a 4TB a month ago as a back up. They have the top of the line durability & performance without the noise of a Exos but as I discovered they can get hotter than a Saturday arvo barby. So putting it in a heat dispersion cage should help. But finding one with its own built in fan would be epic. A word of warning, I found that Amazon sell these drives at a bargain however you have a 35% chance of getting one that is DOA, so I paid $20 more to get a local one that was heavily packed for delivery. I liked your review of the mach 2, where performance is similar to an SSD, that is unheard of.

Is it better to do the Exos or Ironwolf Pro or are they about the same? Does Exos also get data recovery? Been looking at both and hoping to get a first NAS. Many times the Exos is a bit cheaper than the Ironwolf Pro.

@PO-bk1wv Жыл бұрын

NAS Compares did an earlier review comparing those too. Exos and the ones from WD do not have the data recovery program. Also, I believe he found that the Enterprise drives - Ultrastar, Exos etc, run noisier since they are meant for data centres. These Red and IronWolf Pro drives are used in office environments and hence designed to run quieter.

@foecartel Жыл бұрын

these are "optimized" for NAS but can i get one of these to use as part of my regular PC storage installed on the motherboard?

@lukastemberger 9 ай бұрын

Of course. The only thing you might want to consider is that regular consumer drives are usually quieter. These are not horribly loud though, depends on how much that sort of thing bothers you. I have 4 x 22GB Ironwolf Pros in a NAS in my home office and the noise is not so annoying. And I'm usually sensitive to noise. Especially since I use an NVMe drive inside the NAS for an everyday share folder and HDDs are there for less frequent large file transfers.

@@ShaneMcGrath. Not the Reds, those are SMR now. The Red Plus series. Oh, and the large capacity Red Plus are relatively quiet, but they click each 5 seconds or so due to a feature called Preventive Wear Leveling. My 14TB Red Plus does so, but I also have 4TB ones which are very quiet. Of course, nothing beats SSDs in terms of mechanical noise ;)

@ErikS- Жыл бұрын

It all depends on how much data you need to store and how often you need to use it. Mechanical HDD's also benefit from technology progressing. So the gap is still there and I think it will be there for a long time.

@ivanmaglica264 Жыл бұрын

excuse me, but forensic recovery does not make sense for a drive that will be in a raid array. if drive was to fail and it is a part of lets say raid 5, you would replace it with a fresh one and not bother with recovery. It would make sense if whole array would be corrupted, but then you are dealing with raid corruption and that would need different kind of recovery.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record. Don't do pro, do enterprise instead. 72% more (atm depending on region) compared to Exos is not exactly a great deal.

These drives are crazy, they have the same MTBF and warranty as the Exos drives and such while being quieter, plus the data recovery service. Almost certainly the drive I"ll be going with if and when I can afford to get another NAS. Unless they come out with a 22TB that's not stupidly expensive compared to these.
