This is a White Label (4-Terabyte) 4TB SATA3 hard drive featuring with 7200RPM, 64MB cache SATA 6.0Gb/s(Enterprise Grade) hard drive with 1 year warranty. A white label product is a product made by major hard drive company that manufactured for other companies (OEM Hard Drive Reseller/VAR) re-brand to make it appear as if they made it or for large volume special application. Industry’s highest capacity nearline drive – SATA hard drives are available in capacities 4 TB to suit even the most demanding storage needs. Highest performance for business-critical applications – delivers 6 Gb/s transfer rates, sustained sequential data rates of 171 MB/s and high random I/O rates. Designed for quality and reliability – With a field-tested 1.2 million hour MTBF, this high performance drive delivers the highest level of reliability for 24×7 operation in up to 100% duty cycle applications. Dual processor – Twice the processing power to maximize performance. Enhanced RAFF technology includes sophisticated electronics to monitor the drive and correct both linear and rotational vibration. The result is a significant performance improvement in high vibration environments over the previous generation of drives.

Plugged In, Workes Perfectly
Excellent refurbished drive.Plugged it into my NAS and it worked perfectly. Resilvered the pool and it has been working every since.Great price, fast boot, easy install, runs quietly, and so far – no lost data or uptime.Hopefully it stays reliable and durable for years to come.

2 years in & The Honest Truth
3 Year Update – 32644 hours on these drives & smart data says drives are still in good health!I’ve purchased 8 of these drives at various times and at various prices in last 3 years and have yet to see a failure (surprisingly). 4 of them are in my NAS system running 24/7. The other 4 I keep on hand for spares or migrations/expansions. To be honest, I was expecting more problems when I purchased them or for them to be discontinued (hence the extra’s) but ya, they’re great… and still sold 3 years later… so the honest truth is these are awesome drives at rock bottom prices and I fully plan on purchasing more. This is the best kept secret. I didn’t want to leave this review because I wanted to keep it that way but its the right thing to do so you’re welcome.More details:- As far as I can tell, they are new drives, not renewed. They all came packaged well and unopened.- They get the expected 170 MBps seq read/write for a 7200 RPM drive.- They do get toasty if left unchecked, however I run them in a well ventilated enclosure in a cold basement so I don’t have any thermal issues.- Despite having a White-Label, doing a deeper dive shows that all the drives I got are actually HGST. Some of them literally have HGST model number in the stats (see bottom one in the screenshot), but the firmware running on the others leads me to believe that they are also HGST/Western Digital. Because these are White-Label tho, nothing is certain.- A few of the drives are only rated at SATA II despite saying SATA III on the page. Really tho – that doesnt matter. A hard disk can never SATA III speeds anyways. Just an oddity I noticed.

Still going strong at 2.5. years. Wish it was quieter though
NAS reports 22k+ hours and zero problems. Good value for the money. I do wish it was a little quieter when writing to it though

So far so good
I bought this to replace a failing 2TB external drive I use exclusively for local backups, and to test to see if these are good candidates for replacing my IronWolf’s in my RAID5 array on my SOHO server (when they fail).It’s been about 2 weeks, and it’s working fine so far. I did a full dd wipe before mounting, and no errors or bad sectors. However, I found it odd that in smartmontools, the drive doesn’t report ‘187 – Reported Uncorrectable’ or ‘188 – Command Timeout’ stats, which are 2 of the 5 attributes I monitor (per Backblaze) to indicate pending failure.At half the price, I could replace these twice as often as the IronWolf’s and still come out even. But without the stats, I feel like I’m half in-the-dark about drive health. So… still undecided.

incompetent? Fraudulent? Malicious?
Returned for full refund when, upon receipt, I tested it. The self test could not complete; it hung with 80% left to do. See screenshot of what smartctl was able to glean from the disk. The disk’s error log contained a DMA error at 65,242 power-on hours. The number of power-on hours was 6, so the odometer had been, er, adjusted before the disk was sent to me. See the label: the disk’s serial number is nowhere to be found. A close reading of the smartctl output on the screenshot shows the hack of the disk’s firmware was pretty clumsy. I wonder whether the now-hacked firmware, which can’t pass its own tests and so can’t report on its own authenticity, contains a security exploit. The more I think about this disk, the less I want to give DBSky any more of my business.

L O U D
First of all I have owned a lot of enterprise drives and Nas drives over the years so I’m well versed in hard drive sounds. So let me tell ya, these drives are the LOUDEST hard drives on planet earth. I could place them in a welding shop and still hear them clunking away in the background. That’s how loud they are. Do not put these in a bed room unless you can sleep through a marching band. Also the vibration is crazy when it’s finding data. No idea how long they’ll last but if the sound is any gauge, not even a year.Might remember to update the review when they fail. If they last 2 years I’ll consider myself lucky.
