Installed in a 2010 Sony VAIO AIO, and overall performance improvement was very noticeable. Passmark testing showed sequential Read/Write speeds at 175/177 MB/sec. Former WD Re ratings were 127/90 MB/sec.



Great drives. Ordered 8 and all 8 are working perfectly. They are fully compatible with the Synology Nas DS720+ Dual Bay Drives. I contacted Synology Techs and they recommended these drives even though they are no on the compatibly list. Synology says these are the max drive size for the DS720+ drives.

Name Brand, only 1 drive has failed in the last 4 years out of 150-200 drives installed. Def recommend.


Fast USB SS, dependable, quick extended storage.

Drive was recieved on time and installed easily. Works great.

Good SSD cooler with one caveat. Comes with several heat pads of different thickness and even includes a mini screwdriver. Installing a single-sided SSD will have no issues whatsoever.

Synology drives are guaranteed compatible and recommended for Synology enclosures.


- A little faster than a 5400 RPM drive - Quiet, reliable and cool running - Lots of storage space (I use these drives for video storage and backups) - Economical (especially if you catch it on a deep sale) - about 0.015 cent cost per gigabyte - Shipping was fast - it arrived a day early! - I now have 3 of this model and will probably get at least one more in the future. - MOST IMPORTANTLY - It is a CMR (NOT SMR) drive

These drives are rugged, dependable, and fast. I've been using them for years and they've never me a reason to 'complain'.



fast delivery, works great, silent

most trusted HDD


Massive storage, itty-bitty desk space. Equivalent to throwing a pile of DVDs into a cave - big room, little files. Plug and play functionality.
