The WD Red Plus 10TB is a NAS drive that lands around $16 to $17 per terabyte, which makes it feel reasonable for a reputable midrange model. It is being compared with larger Red Pro options and 12TB Red Plus drives, but the 10TB stands out as the simpler capacity choice for a basic NAS or NVR upgrade. The drive is air filled, while only the WD120EFBX 12TB Red Plus is helium filled. Shipping and stock are the main friction points, with Amazon often slow and some alternate listings already out of stock.

  • The drive can work out around $16 to $17 per terabyte, which keeps the cost reasonable for a WD Red NAS option.

  • WD's own store can offer the same price with free shipping, which can reduce total checkout cost versus other retailers.

  • B&H checkout can stack PayPal cash back offers, which can lower the effective cost for a multi-drive NAS build.

  • The WD Red Plus line uses air-filled construction for this 10TB model, which avoids helium-variant confusion when matching part numbers.

  • The 10% off coupon may not apply to already-discounted prices and can even increase the final price.

  • Shipping timelines can be a drawback because Amazon orders may show 3+ weeks of delivery time.

  • The 10TB WD Red Plus model may be avoided due to concerns about loud operation, even though closet placement could reduce impact.

  • WD orders using PayPal cash back can get stuck at an "order confirmed" status for more than a week.

I hate what has happened to HDD prices lately, but for a midsize and relatively reputable drive, this seems somewhat reasonable @ $17/TB.
I've had the itch to upgrade my old 3TB WD Red that's been acting as an NVR drive for 6+ years now. I probably should considering its power-on hours.

Edit: B&H Photo has it for $170 too if you want to avoid Amazon - this is probably who they price matched: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/pr..._7200.html

B&H is usually pretty snappy on shipping, too. I get stuff from them faster than I get from amazon as a non-prime member.

And the 12TB is $200, which is $15 per TB for the extra capacity.

Nice. If their "Sign up for 10% off coupon" thing works on already discounted prices that might be worthwhile.
Edit: Don't bother trying the above. It actually increases the price because it takes the 10% off the normal price lol.

Saw the $200 12TB @ B&H but it's out of stock.

B&H also allows checkout with PayPal so you can stack the 20% cash back pay in 4 offer as well to make things extra slick.

Two of these plus a synology DS225+ comes to $530 after PayPal cashback on B&H for a slick basic nas setup.

Extra 10% does not work.

"This promotion applies on the Original Price. Any product discount will be removed.
This Coupon code may not be stackable with other Coupon codes"

I would prefer to order from Amazon (5% points), but shipping is out 3+ weeks.

FYI I've avoided this specific 10 GB serial number due to the purported loudness of the drives. May not bother everyone esp if your NAS is in a closet.

Those reviews are 4 years old. I read in the Amazon reviews "WD RED PLUS 12TB (JUST the 12TB) is helium filled and very quiet", so for $30 more you get 2TB increase and low noise. Anyone know the truth here?

The damn prices don't drop much. I got lucky and picked up 3 exos hard drives of 14th for the same price each. I wish I had bought more now. AI is screwing everything up
