The one from gamestop contains a seagate compute SMR drive rated for less than 55TB/year workload. These WD Red drives are rated for 180TB/yr.

I ordered these from Newegg not too long ago and they came bare drives, lose in a box, banged to shit by shipping. Completely inappropriate packaging and this is a common problem with Newegg.

Just had a 6TB Toshiba crap out on my NAS just before work this morning. Good time to get a deal. Will replace the other Toshiba as well since I'm buying two new drives.

If you're wanting a drive for a NAS this is what you want. If you are buying a drive for something else then you probably don't care about this deal.

Hmm I recently grab the two eight terabyte deal from Newegg and they were wrapped very well. Must be the seller specific maybe?

Red Plus is NAS drive which I heard has vibration sensor. When you run NAS, you likely have multiple hard drive in there. And if they spin at the same frequency, it may cause much bigger vibration issue which may cause damage to the hard drive. What I heard is with vibration sensor, they will sensor the amount of vibration and each drive with try spin in different frequency to reduce vibration, etc. Plus other NAS related features like always-on (24x7 so rate higher TB/year), etc, which you can google and find out.

Of course I just ordered this from Amazon. Guess that one is being returned and I'll keep this one. Worth the extra few days that it'll take to get here.

Good lookin out!
