WARNING!!!!!!
TO ALL FUTURE HARD DISK BUYERS.
REMANUFACTURED DISKS ARE CIRCULATING THAT ARE BEING MARKETED AS NEW IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO RECOGNIZE THEM!!!.
A few days ago, I had such an experience with the purchase of a Seagate Ironwolf 1TB hard disk from a store through Skroutz.
I didn't open the plastic wrap, but from the label, I can see signs that it is a remanufactured product and not brand new. The words "recertified product" and "CSO LOT NUMBER" are present. The product is of the initial production on December 10, 2019.
I tried to contact the store, but they didn't answer the calls. It is an online-only store that I won't name because I'm not sure if they were aware of the product's quality and intentionally did it.
Then I contacted Seagate support, who confirmed that these disks should not be sold but given as replacements to existing customers when their product cannot be repaired. This particular disk had no warranty because its serial number was unknown!
With this confirmation, I turned to Skroutz's support department, who approved the return of the product, a process they handled themselves, including the courier, etc. Once the product arrived at their headquarters, the amount I initially paid was refunded.
In the end, I bought the product from another store, and everything is fine.
P.S.
WARNING!!!
There are also disks circulating that may have the correct label, but internally they are not the disk indicated. Let's say it says 1TB, but the disk is actually 250GB. This is achieved by "tampering" with the data in the eeprom on the disk, so the computer's operating system perceives it differently, and you keep writing and writing until your data is not saved. That's why I recommend using file backup applications that also verify the data at the end.
Good luck!

In less than 20 hours of operation, it had a mechanical issue, specifically a raw read error rate, with 3.5TB of data affected. I wasted time, money, and my work was set back. I have never had a problem with Seagate drives before, but they have always been Barracuda. This is the first and last time I will buy another one.

Purchased for a small (backup) NAS. Everything is good so far, normal temperatures and minimal noise.

Well, I have 2 identical storage drives. I use them through Dockstation. On one, I download and the other for backup. I haven't experienced high temperatures, they don't make annoying noise. They have a good price. Now, if they last, for example, 10 years, top of the top for me. If they last 6 months, the watermelon is bad. I believe that hard drives are purely a matter of luck. So far, they are doing their job for me.

Did you find this review helpful? I have 2 out of 4TB along with 2 other WD Gold drives on my home server. I've had one for 1 year and the other for 1.5 years, and both work 24/7 with light usage and several spin downs throughout the day because electricity is expensive now. So far, no issues, lower temperatures compared to the WD drives, and relatively quiet.
In comparison to the regular WD Red drives, you should know that Ironwolf drives have a lower failure rate. If you're looking for a similar reliable solution from WD, consider the Red Plus or the slightly more expensive Red Pro drives, both of which are CMR like the Ironwolf drives.

Did you find this review helpful?I have more than 6 disks, exactly the same model. For NAS usage on a small scale level, they are flawless and fully reliable. For the past 3 years, none of them has had any issues, but even if a problem arises, Seagate itself takes care of data resolution and restoration for free as long as there is a warranty.

Very satisfied. I have two 2TB drives in Raid1 for security. Inside a Synology. At 40 points from my ears and I don't hear anything really. You only hear when they wake up from sleep mode. Read and write speed reaches 100-105 as it is Gigabit. So far, flawless.

Did you find this review helpful? I bought 2 4TB disks for my NAS. Initially on ASUSTOR and then transferred to Synology. After 3 years and 1 month, one of them failed. Synology notified me that the S.M.A.R.T. detected an error.
I spoke with Seagate in the chat and informed them that it broke 1 month after the warranty, asking if they could do something. They informed me that the disks have a 3-year warranty from their manufacturing date, not the purchase date, which put me 5 months out of warranty. The purchase date is only taken into account for authorized resellers and not all stores. The store where I bought it is not an authorized reseller.
Nevertheless, after a few questions they asked me, they offered me a free replacement even though I was 5 months out of warranty based on their records.
Additionally, I should mention that I had lost the receipt and the store sent me a copy (from 3 years ago) within 2 hours of my email.Overall, although I was disappointed with the faulty disk, primarily the response from Seagate and secondarily from the store, my experience with the disks is 5 stars.

Did you find this review helpful?For a hard drive, it is fast and quiet, I have it in the living room on the NAS and it doesn't distract you, it is discreet. However, it bothered me in the bedroom, which I imagine is normal for a mechanical hard drive. I chose this particular company because for the past ten years I have only used such drives on my computers, and they still work, and I was satisfied, so I bought this one to transfer my data to the NAS because the other drives I have are ten years old and I decided not to take chances with them :)

Did you find this review helpful?4 NAS disks were purchased on Unraid (2 parity). 2 of them showed a relocated sector count in SMART. After contacting the store, the money was refunded and new ones were purchased as they are covered by Seagate for 3 years. Generally, it is normal for them to appear after a few years, but at 3 years it indicates that the batch is problematic and that's why they are covered. Overall, I am quite happy with this choice. They are relatively quiet and never go above 34-35 in the summer and 28 in the winter (depending on the airflow in the case)

Did you find this review helpful?Out of 6 4TB disks, 3 had issues within 3 days in a Synology NAS, so obviously we're off to a bad start... 2 had bad sectors right away and one failed within 3 days. How long will the other 3 hold up, I wonder? How can I trust them when I need them for my business?

Did you find this review helpful?Noisy and slow, the disk can reach 150mb/s in sequential but in random accesses, goodnight anyway, its usage in my system is very small and occasional, mostly as permanent long term storage, so I'm not very interested and basically anyway

Did you find this review helpful?It is an excellent disk. I have 2 identical ones in my possession on a Synology Nas (DS220j)! It has exactly the speeds it promises. It has not had any problems for almost 5 months. It is located inside a Nas, open 24/7. Operating hours: 3214 hours (1st) [the second one has 1577 hours]. I have filled it twice and emptied it. I have the 4TB model. It constantly writes because I have the cameras sending all the footage to this Nas. So far, it has proven to be flawless. I have done many tests and it has not shown any issues. I will update my reviews after 1-2 years when I have made fair use of the disk.
For the accuracy of the test, I will try to be as objective as possible, and I will run tests on both simultaneously with the same frequency (test), same temperatures, and generally the same conditions on both, so that the results are as "clean" as possible. This is my review so far.
Thank you very much for your time.

They were purchased for the creation of a home storage network on a Synology D220+. Currently, they are functioning satisfactorily, although they make a little noise when files are being recorded. I think the problem will be solved if the NAS is hidden in a cabinet. Time will tell if they are reliable.

It is good for its money, but it is better for someone to get the new version because it is cheaper and theoretically better

2020-09-09Expert userFor now, the evaluation is limited to noise and disk speed.
Both are excellent.
Truly silent. Especially compared to the WD RED Pro, there is no comparison. Note that the Red Pro is not particularly noisy, but they are "heard" in comparison to the IronWolf.The rest will come in due time..

Obviously, it has not been a considerable amount of time since the purchase for a reliable evaluation, but I am mentioning my impressions so far and the reason for choosing it.- It was purchased as a replacement for an older hard drive as a precaution because it had reached its 5-year mark, and its use is exclusively for backups (not for daily use/torrenting/editing, etc.).
- Due to the importance of backups, I only considered NAS drives, not lower categories that are intended for mainstream use and lack certain security features, such as greater resistance to vibrations.
- It was chosen instead of WD Red because in recent years I have not had a good experience with WD Blue compared to the equivalent Seagate Barracuda drives (partly due to the overwhelmingly higher usage percentages of Seagate NAS drives by YouTubers/tech sites abroad).
- Unfortunately, I do not have a corresponding WD Red drive to make a comparison (as you can find in the reviews of Barracuda/Blue 2TB drives), but so far it has met my expectations.Benchmark:

Compared to the previous disk, it is quieter, the speeds reached by the NAS overload the network (1000), I recommend it for use in NAS. The only negative, which is not serious, is that it takes a little longer to recover from sleep mode.
