Pros and cons

According to our internal hard drive HDD expert

Thanks to the 512MB cache memory, you can open frequently used files more quickly and you can work without delays.
This internal HDD is especially designed for a NAS that has an unlimited number of slots, so you can run it 24/7 without worries and without your drive becoming too hot.
With an 8TB storage capacity, you can store up to 800 Full HD movies of 2 hours in 1 place.
A SATA cable isn't included.
Due to the 3.5-inch size, this drive doesn't fit in a laptop.

Description

The WD Red Pro WD8005FFBX 8TB is optimized for NAS systems and is suitable for home users as well as small or medium-sized companies. Expand your NAS with this 3.5-inch hard drive and you can share your files with your devices at home or at the office in multiple RAID applications. You could use the Red Pro as a backup drive, something the Red base models aren't suitable for. With 8TB, you'll have enough storage capacity for 800 Full HD movies of 2 hours or 800,000 photos. Thanks to the built-in anti-vibration sensors, the drive lasts longer than a regular hard drive. With a rotation speed of 7200RPM, this drive is also energy-efficient. In addition, you can open frequently used files faster thanks to the 512MB cache memory. When you're not processing any files, the WD8005FFBX lifts the read-write head from the disk. That way, it doesn't wear as fast, which makes the drive more durable.

Review is 8,4 out of 10.

If speed is more important than noise, the Pro is perfect.

Good product, does what you expect of it.

Because it runs at a higher speed, reading and writing is faster, but you can also hear it slightly more clearly compared to the regular version.
