Btw, I saw 4TB ones for 68.99 in B&H and thought maybe I over paid for these in Newegg. I compared the two and turns out model are different. B&H one is WD40EFRX with 64MB Cache and Newegg one is WD40EFZX with 128MB Cache. I paid $76.99 with $8 coupon. Don't know about you, but $8 more for 64MB more cache sounds not so bad at all.

Canceled my Newegg order for the Reds. Picked up 2×4TB and 2x6TB WD Red Plus and an 8GB Crucial SODIMM from Amazon. Will run SHR at ~13TB like my 412j has done for the last 9+ years.

Will mate nicely with the 920+ I bought last night from B&H.

Why you need so much storage? Just curious. I have a 918+ with 12TB and it's a overkill for my plex server.

I think the Ironwolf pro compares to the Red pro, and not the red plus..

General rule is you stay with same drives.
You can mix and match drives as much as you like if they're not a part of the same raid array.

Hey would love advice if you know Synology... Thinking of two 4tb drives in a 2 bay Synology... For my ladies Christmas present. She is a photographer and her biggest fear is losing her photos, and right now she has three separate USB drives with about 3 TB of data total stored on all of them.

On the other hand I fear it's not a nice enough setup but the budget would add up to go bigger. Reason being I saw on YouTube where a guy had a 4 bay Synology, with twice the storage amount he needed, and his logic was if he only used half the capacity, he could lose two drives in a freak event and still would have the cross-stored safety to salvage half the total capacity of the drives. Not sure how the tech works but that was what I gathered.

Would 2 bay setup be an upgrade or not worth it unless going bigger? Data read write speed would certainly be a plus factor as well as home cloud server stuff I sort of understand that Synology makes possible.

In my opinion, I would suggest going with 4 bays instead of 2 because with 4 drives you can either go for raid 6 which allow 2 hard disk failure(you will have to account for rebuild time for a raid which depends on capacity and it would take 20+ hours and depend on drive capacities)

Personally, I have Synology 8 bays with raid 6. If you go with SHR 2 (doesn't have to be the same size drives) you can get different size drives,but performance suffers a bit when accessing. Please see Synology Raid calculator [synology.com] for sizing.

Don't know about Synology but I'll tell ya what: I have 2x4TB drives in my tower for photo storage and I just manually copy from my cameras/phones to each drive the old school way. Is it an elegant solution? No. But it's honestly not a pain and is simple. If one fails, I've got the other one. Actually just bought 2 more 4TB to add to the system (it's a rather large case) at the $69 price. We shoot about 350GB per year between my wife and I so that's quite a while before we fill that up again.

Don't know if it was a fluke but I tried to order 2 through WD site and got errors at the "Place Order" step. Went to B&H and had no trouble...

I'm in for two 8TBs from Adorama. Both B&H and Adorama say they are backordered, but Adorama will still let you check out with that pricing. I didn't see where I could order an out of stock item at B&H.

I am 7.7TB of 9.9TB in my SHR 412j right now. I will set the new 920+ up and copy everything over. With only 2TB of space left, I figure more is always better.

Storage is cheap and I only upgrade my NAS once every 10 years. First world problems. Set it and forget it...
