Western Digital 1TB WD Red SA500 NAS 3D NAND Internal SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, 2.5/7mm, Up to 560 MB/s - WDS100T1R0A

I bought this to replace a Samsung 840 Pro as a cache drive in my FreeNAS build. So far everything is running as smooth as it did before. The temperature of the drive is a little warmer than the old drive. At idle, the old drive sat around 1°C over ambient, this one sits around 5°C over ambient.

I have to buy another drive. Its kept failing and freezing my server. Had to buy a new one

I ordered this to add more ram to my Mac Mini and am using the Satechi hub to rest my mac mini on. Its wonderful. I now have an extra 1TB of storage docked under my mac mini.

Popped this into my NVR for use with my home security camera system. Works great and a noticeable speed upgrade from the HDD i was running previously. Will probably pick up a few more and RAID them! Only downside is it doesnt come with mounting screws, but this isnt a huge deal.

Very happy so far! Stoked WD finally released a nas rated ssd. I have it running in a cache pool on my Unraid server. Of course, only time will tell but for now it is performing admirably. Update 11-16-21: It has been running 24/7 for almost 2 years now and is still as solid as ever!

I bought these drive for my Synology NAS and these drives are compatible with Synology. Easy to install and always preferred WD over the other brands.

This was really easy to install. Yes, I am an IT guy and used other 3rd-party software to clone the smaller SSD to this larger, 1TB version. Took less than 30 minutes to do this! Gotta love living in 2020! :-D

I plug this to my TESLA model 3 to record video, no issues.

I always purchase these WD Red because of the speed and durability.

Im not an IT tech, just an average joe that does video editing on the side. I bought the Western Digital Red SSD because I needed a fast, robust drive, and boy does this baby deliver! The bootup time on my old standard hard drive was just over 3 minutes. After installing and cloning the SSD, my computer booted up to the start screen in 20 seconds flat! 4K video used to lag painfully slow on my old hard drive, but 4K native clips now scroll by (in multiple layers!) like it was nothing! Definitely a worthwhile investment, especially now that prices on SSD hard drives have come down considerably. Also, Ive never had a WD drive crash on me and I anticipate this drive will serve me dependably as well.
