What to check before you buy

  • Pick the duty class: NAS, surveillance and enterprise drives are built for 24x7 use, desktop drives are not.
  • Confirm interface (SATA or SAS) and form factor (3.5 or 2.5 inch) against your enclosure or server backplane.
  • Check the recording method (CMR is preferred for RAID rebuilds; SMR suits archive and light use).
  • Buy matching drives for a RAID set and keep one spare, ideally from different production batches.
  • Compare the workload rating (TB per year) and warranty period, not only the capacity.
