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.

I really didnt expect this to last 24 hours, crazy that BB had been holding out so much stock in anticipation of this level of demand.

I ordered two and one box felt lighter than the other. Sure enough, the lighter one is defective out of the box.

The problem is that I plugged it into the computer and Windows did not recognize it. I went to Windows disk management and it prompted me to initialize a new drive that's only around 150gb. I tried on another computer and it was the same thing.

The box and item do not appear to have been tampered with and the other drive works fine. It's sold out at my local Best Buy and I can't even order another for replacement. I may have to reach out to WD directly.

4So picked two up locally - first one shucked just fine, second would boot up - thought it was a power issue, so put it back in the enclosure and plugged it up - booted up fine?! Took it back out of the enclosure and plugged it back in and no go?! Not sure what's the deal, tried two different sata and power cables, but no juice =/ Should I go and return it?
If it works in the enclosure, it's not broken. So no, don't return it.

Lol to all the poor folks who picked shipping instead of pick up, mine got delayed even though ETA was to be delivered today.

Hopefully they don't give away the one ready for pick up ha.

Would this be ok for basically a 24/7 seed box with only intermittently accessed data?

Mine shipping early morning via FedEx and are already "On FedEx vehicle for delivery" so they will be here today. Hopefully for you shipping tracking is just delayed or it shows tomorrow.

It's funny how excited we all are for hard drives 👍🏼

How fast is this for transferring to/from and playing audio and video clips from. Using a MacBook Air?

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
Fredmiranda.com is the best place I know to buy and sell camera equipment.

Same, was just able to order 1 only for local pickup on 11/12/2020. Oh well, it's just more backup space for me.

Picked mine up yesterday curbside. Got a good one too! NO errors in Crystal Disk Info. Be sure to check all your new drives guys/gals.

I see today my store is OOS till Mid November.

I got this drive: WD140EDFZ

If needed, is a Molex adapter really a fire hazard???
