Awesome deal at $15 per TB. This was a Front Page Deal earlier in the month, should be again. Perfect drive for shucking.
Absolutely. We should use Floppy disks.

FYI, they jacked up the price about $20 before the discount, so this is about ~$20 better than normal price. Still a great deal though

great deal, really hoping for 14tb at this price point or even up to $200. Yeah that would be a slightly lower per TB deal but I value the density.

Nice price, the 14TB's $190 haven't shown up for a while so this is second best if you need space.

I know that these drives require the 3.3v fix pin. Does the QNAP also requires that as well?

I don't think synology or qnap support the pwdis feature(3rd pin power disable) aka it should just work.

For everyone else, just get a 4-pin molex to sata cable, or tape up pin 3.

So everyone only ever talks about shucking. Is this a decent drive to just hook up to a network via a router? or is USB 3.0 too slow.

Spinning disk hard drives are slower than the usb 3 xfer speed. 150 vs 600MB/s. If it was a fast ssd, different story.

I just moved away from Synology NAS to Mac mini and DAS (Direct Attached Storage). I just hook these directly to the Mac as is. I do Plex and SecuritySpy for surveillance cams.
