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.

Those are good sites, but they wouldn't help me in this case. I was selling photography equipment. But I will definitely keep those sites in mind because I do have extra computer stuff I could get rid of
I'm sure you could sell photography equipment just fine on either of those methods. No restrictions that I'm aware of.

Looks like it's dead.

Edit: hmm, sometimes I can add it to my cart and sometimes it looks out of stock. Maybe try reloading a few times if it shows out of stock. Also, some people will have a store close by with it in stock, so I guess it's not dead for everyone.

You guys suck :-D, just bought 6 of these and now have to get my NAS unit. couldn't have waited a couple of months. ;-P

Welp that empty my gift card collection
I was perfectly happy with my Synology DS220J for two days until I saw this deal today. Then I had to order two of these drives this evening along with a Synology DS418 from Amazon. When this all arrives next week, I'll be sending the DS220J back to Amazon. 😂😉 Jesus, this website is like heroin for techjunkies

Is there a good fast way to test these drives? I like to make sure there aren't any defects or bad sectors before I start using them but chkdsk is taking forever.....

No it's a placebo. Unless the transcode was done poorly, there's no way anyone can tell unless they use a magnifying glass against the screen.

720p upscaled content still looks fine for some types of content, particularly animated movies. 1080p is a luxury. 4k.. pfft waste of space
It's like my audiophile friends making fun of me for using logitech 2.1 speakers to listen to my 320 kbps mp3s. My ears must not work properly.

Can you post the model of the two drives ? Many people are getting WD140EDFZ.

Anybody know if two of these will work inside a Western Digital My Book Duo [amazon.com] ? I want to pull out my 2x Mirrored 8TB and replace them with 2x 14TB mirrored. Then use the two 8TB drives separately. I encrypted my 8TB mirror though so I'm going to have to do a bit of juggling to get it to work.

Store only and none within 250 miles of me. Found some at a store 500 miles away and having someone pick them up within the week for me.
