Last year Western Digital launch the Red series of hard disks intended for use in NAS devices. Seagate also has such a series now called the Seagate NAS HDDs. We tested the 4TB model and compared it to Western Digital's disks. It's more than a marketin...
With the NAS HDD series, Seagate now has hard disks that are optimised for use in NAS devices just like the Western Digital Red disks. The fact that they're in TLER mode by default is important for NAS devices, and it's also positive that Seagate tests...

For the longest time I ran a set of four Seagate Barracuda 7200.12's in my NAS here in the lab. These drives served me very well up until last year, when they were replaced by the purpose built WD Red NASWare drives. Now though Seagate has entered th...
Back in July of last year, Western Digital launched the first purpose built NAS hard drive, and for the longest time I was waiting for Seagate to do the same. Today this has come to fruition with the NAS HDD, offered in two, three and four TB capacit...

As Western Digital found with its WD Red hard disk, there's a healthy interest in high-capacity hard disks you can use in a NAS drive . The Seagate NAS is the unimaginatively named product from Seagate that fills a gap in its range, a 3.5in SATA disk avai...
The Seagate NAS is a very quiet and low consumption hard-disk drive that looks ideal for desktop NAS and RAID use. It currently costs about the same as its competitor from WD, and while some benchmark tests suggested it has a slightly slower top speed, in...

We reviewed the largest drive in the range, a 4TB behemoth, but it also ships in 2TB and 3TB capacities. SATA 6Gbps is now standard for hard drives, and the NAS HDD is no exception. The inclusion of TLER (Time Limited Error Recovery) is unique to NAS driv...
Considerably faster than Western Digital's Red series when it comes to read performance, Seagate's NAS HDD is the best SOHO NAS drive we've tested...

When QNAP sent over the TS-559 Pro+ to us for review in September 2010, I decided it was a wise choice to buy a new set of hard drives to go along with the NAS. My requirements were simple; I wanted something reasonably power efficient, reasonably fast, a...
Retailing for about $160 at press time, the popular Seagate NAS HDD 4TB has one huge advantage under its belt: Price. In today's review, we are stacking the ST4000VN000 against the $180 Western Digital Red 4TB and $185 HGST Deskstar NAS 4TB . With a price...

When people think of hard drives, a few companies names spring to mind and one of them is usually Seagate. Having formed in 1979 which at the time they were called Shugart Technology (after the founder Al Shugart), they soon changed their name to Seagate...
So with NAS (network attached storage) being the primary use for the Seagate ST4000VN000, is it a worthwhile purchase over a conventional hard drive and does it warrant the £143 price tag? Well jumping right into the main focus which is the performance...

Most 3.5″ hard drives have a very standard design, with the spinning disk, drive heads and other gubbins tucked within a plastic and metal enclosure. That's precisely what we find here. The bottom of the enclosure includes a PCB for the control mechanisms...

Now that the prices of SSDs have dropped to well below 50 cents per GB, we expect that only few Hardware.Info readers will still want to use a conventional hard drive as their primary storage device. We still can't quite live without them, however, beca...

Is there such a thing as too much storage? In this day and age, probably not. And while it is always great to have a backup in the cloud there is still a lot to be said for local storage. A device that can serve everyone in your location easily and at spe...
Starting with the build quality of the drive we have a device which feels solid and really, with HDD like this the reliability is proven. Yes there will be the odd model that through pure bad luck could fail early but overall I think we can all agree that...

When Thecus sent me the amazing N7770-10G NAS a little while ago, they also sent along five of Seagate's Enterprise NAS 6TB hard disk drives. While they are intended for NAS usage as the drive name already suggests, they still deserve a review on their ow...

You should never compromise when you purchase storage, after all, this is where you keep all your precious files. This is a rule that is more important for NAS usage than anything else as this is where you not only store your precious files, but also back...

Despite having an aggressive nearline product portfolio, Seagate was behind the curve when Western Digital released the new Red Pro NAS-specific HDD with 7,200 RPM platters. Seagate, Western Digital, and Hitachi all have HDD products designed specifically...
Before NAS specific hard drives came to the market, some systems were built with ill-equipped desktop HDDs, and others with enterprise products with more features than needed for the installation. The WD Red and Seagate NAS brought us out of the dark age...

While the price of SSDs continues to drop, the ‘old' hard drive is still the cheapest way to store a lot of data. Especially in a NAS or Mini-ITX system, where there is limited physical space you probably want a drive with as much capacity as possible...
We are starting this conclusion with the 6TB-drives. The Toshiba MD04ACA 6TB and X300 6TB offer good performance in this segment for a relatively low price, but are clearly audible with noise levels that are nearly at 40 dB(A) when idle. Nevertheless th...
