Public service duty for those who run media servers: unlike the version of this sold at the western digital store these drives can have their spin down (power savings) timer completely turned off with the included WD drive utility. (This is also $10 lass than it was in November)
$50 less then what i paid a couple of years back!

And you can turn the led off.

I bought multiple hdd from BB and for the first time I bought from WD directly.. Seems like the easystore HDDs from BB are a lot quieter. Not sure if anyone else notices.

As was the case with the WD 14TB yesterday, this can also be purchased from EBay (seller: Best Buy).

It is the same price ($269.99) on EBay but may be a better option for those with EBay Bucks or other available forms of an EBay discount.

Here's the direct link:

Which utility does that? I've never had any luck with any externals keeping them from spinning down. It's so annoying and probably not good for the drives either? I have heard of Windows utilities to force the disk on but always leery of third party stuff etc

The one I bought did in mine, even though the 14tb did not it was a quick fix.

You can download it. It's called WD Drive Utilities. Only works with Easystore drives
