21-11-2024Its slower than the newer drives so you can get OSs to load on it that you have trouble getting to load on some PCs. I an going to load it with what I want then try copping it to a newer faster V-NAND drive. I have a few PCc I can use it with so one of then will get an upgrade when I am done with my current use for it.

> 3 dayAnswering the unanswered as there are so many forums where this question remains open. I can confirm that the WD RED SSD NAS 1TB (using a 2.5 to 3.5 cheapo chunky-style adapter) totally works in both the MyCloud EX2 and MyCloud EX2 Ultra dual-bay NAS devices. I tried JBOD, Spanning, RAID0, RAID1 and all are functioning as expected depending on your configuration choice. For my final configuration, I am personally using two WD RED SSD NAS 1TB in RAID0 for added performance and then use rotating USB HDD backups for any potential failure/recoveries that might happen. As an aside, I experimented with other brands of SSD without success. If you really want SSDs in your MyCloud EX2 or EX2 Ultra, then Id recommend you get the official WD RED SSD NAS drives as they are the only SSDs I personally found to work.

> 3 dayI finally upgraded my Raspberry Pis external drive to an SSD. The speed and the extra capacity on this thing are great, but they come with a price... 1.6A power draw! What??? The old spinning drive it replaced required 0.6A. The Raspberry Pi 4 can supply 1.2A. I had to purchase an externally powered SATA-to-USB3 adapter to get it to work with the Pi. Other than that debacle, its a nice upgrade in storage.

> 3 dayWD Reds are made for Network Array Storage solutions (in other words, ones that plug into your wireless router), so they are meant to be specifically fast under high loads. This is an interesting form factor as the M2 emphasizes compactness over mass use. There are a couple of routers out there that accept M2s natively (almost all introduced in the last year), but there are easy M2 to SATA adapters out there. Using one, I hooked this drive up to my router and then made it a media center with multiple devices accessing the drive for media transmission over the wireless. Because this is manufactured to be in a NAS, this drive takes parallel reading thread load very well, and I could stream data for four devices at 4k stream loads without any degradation from the wireless or extensive caching on my devices. The read and writes were at 90% of the advertised features if parallel, in opposition (so one device reads and another one writes), this drops to 40% of the read theoretical maximum and 50% of the write maximum, so there is still some work that can be done on these drives for queue efficiency, but I think this is more a firmware concern than a hardware limitation. While you can use this directly in your devices, this would be overkill and the Blue or Green would probably be better for most systems at better pricing. As a standard drive though, this is more comparable to WDs Black series in terms of throughput. I highly recommend this drive if you do have an M2 native NAS device or if you are willing to put in the SATA adapter. This drive will perform very well under major thread load.
