Seagate 12TB IronWolf Internal NAS Hard Drive | SATA 6 Gb/s (ST12000VNZ008)

This came in a custom box that was made to protect the drive during transit. I have been using the drive now for a few months and it's running error free so far. It just clipped into the cradle of my NAS and works well if a little on the noisy side. Not a real issue for me as my NAS is in the hallway next to my router and you only ever hear it when you are passing through. I use it for my Time Machine back ups of my MacBook, super simple and works works well. The large capacity means I can use it as a personal drive as well as storage to back up my Apple TV purchases as they can sometimes disappear from the service when the copyright holders remove the movie or swap it out for a 4K version that you need to re-buy. The point being there is a lot this drive can handle. I got this drive on the amazon 5 easy payments plan, that made this drive affordable to me as the option to pay over time is a great feature of Amazon when it's available. Makes it more affordable with smaller monthly payments. I trust the seagate brand as I have purchased their drives in the past and they always work well so only time will tell but I hope this drive is just as reliable as the others I purchased in the past.

Bought two of these for backup purposes. They have been smooth and remarkably quiet to date. Hopefully they will also be reliable in the long term.

Best you can buy for nas

I was sent a defective drive ( which lost me a £3000 contract, because I didn't have enough space on my nas ). I won't be buying anything from Seagate again.

2nd drive purchased, came well packaged.it and previous drive are still working well

Bought to replace Ironwolf 4tb drivers. These are much faster than the 4tb drives but also noisier as many other reviews note.

It’s a large capacity hard drive. Quiet, quick and does the job!

This is a great hard drive

Es de los mejores discos que he comprado, Seagate es una de las mejores marcas en el mercado en cuando a almacenamiento de datos se refiere. Les recomiendo que descarguen el software de Seagate (desde la página oficial) para comprobar que el disco no tenga problemas de fabrica, antes de comenzar a escribir datos en el. Es un poco ruidoso obviamente ya que es un disco duro mécanico HDD, no es un SSD. Lo volvería a comprar, definitivamente.

Bought this HDD after seeing a flash deal. I installed it into a DAS array and everything works beautifully. Will definitely purchase it again.

i have ordered two hdd 12TB NAS seagate HDD. i got one 12T seagate HDD and one 12T seagate NAS HDD. The one that is not NAS it is running 5 degrees hotter than the NAS one. in my synology NAS box Please make sure what you sell is exactly what is mention on amazon and what will be in the box. the box label are the same writing but different HDD inside the box.

What blew me away with this was I was able to transfer 4 different SD cards (Video footage) at the same time and it took them all at close to 90mbps each... which was the max of my SD cards. My other drives all would have slowed down but for some reason these seem to keep up?! Maybe being a 12TB is has a few read/write arms... I have no friggin idea how they work but its damn good. I paid $330 each, shop around.

I recently put these Seagate IronWolf 12TB drives into my system after having them in storage for a while, and overall, they've been performing very well. The speeds are solid, and they handle data transfers smoothly, which is exactly what I was hoping for from NAS-class drives. So far, reliability and performance have met my expectations. That said, they can be a bit noisy when actively reading or writing. At idle, they're nearly silent, but under load, there is definitely noticeable drive chatter. I have my machine sitting right on my desk, so the sound is more apparent than it might be in a closet, rack, or separate room. If your system is close to where you work and you're sensitive to noise, you may want to consider that or plan on using good noise-canceling headphones. Overall, they're a great set of high-capacity drives with strong performance, just keep the noise factor in mind depending on your setup.
