SHR always uses one drive with the largest capacity for parity, so putting one 14TB in won't get you anything more than what the Synology has now. You will want to buy at least two 14TB drives. Replace one drive, wait for SHR to rebuild, then repeat with the other new drive. You will end up with 2TB more than current. If you were to replace all four 12TB drives, you would end up with 6TB more than current.

The golden question, what's inside?

Extended returns in effect if you're on the fence.


Purchases made October 13, 2020 through January 2, 2021 have an extended return period through January 16, 2021

These won't get lower. BB does this every year, they offer the BF pricing a few weeks ahead of BF and then again at BF. I buy their BF special drives every year and upgrade both my servers and sell off the drives from the year before. It's the exact same scenario every time. This year it's the 14TB. Last year was the 12TB, 10 before that and 8 before that.

Are you guys using this for backups or actual drive use? This seems like a lot of data to be actually using the drive daily

Quote from Materialislick :
Not trying to be a dick but what are some things people need this much capacity for?
As someone mentioned, downloaded (read torrent) 4k movies are a huge factor for lots of people. Also, say you're a photographer. This is a lot of backup space for a great price. A professional will probably need more space but an amateur who does some side gigs would enjoy this. There's also more and more people doing this sort of thing for videos and pics of all their family stuff. Stick the drives in a NAS, feed it to a digital photoframe, and everyone gets to enjoy all the memories. Just a few reasons for this sort of stuff.

Yeah, each year, the sale is progressing in capacities. This year, we will likely see 16TB on sale, whether it's from WD or Seagate (Seagate ramped up the 16TB before WD). I still have some capacity left on my 10TB drive so will pass on this one and wait for the 16TB. It may be trickier in following years, as we will need to decide whether to choose MAMR or HAMR drives. :-)

Thanks and sorry I was the one lol. I have a plex server and currently have a full 8tb and needed to upgrade. I just plug it into the back of my gaming pc and leave it on 247. Is there a better route to take than that?
several. Your gaming pc is most likely a hot noisy power hog.

You just gave another hundred schmucks, who hadn't thought of this yet, the idea. Nice job
Exactly. I didn't even know what shucking was either. Last time I heard of it was when my grandparents were pissed at something they'd say "shucks" instead of 💩

?? - If I just use it as a stand alone drive, plugged into my router 24/7. Does the drive have a sleep mode?
TIA
