Is this a 5 year warranty as listed???? All other retailers list it as a 1 Year warranty

Early production units (P/N: 9JB1N4-573) were made in Singapore and Malaysia and had 5 year warranties. Latest production (P/N: 9JB1N4-574) are mfg in China and only carry 1 year warranty.Buyer Beware!

Is the 4TB or larger version good for NAS? I'll be running it 24/7. If not, any recommendations?

It says in the description good for NAS/DAS so yes. I'm using 2 of them in RAID 1 24/7, no issues. They are fast and saturate my gigabyte Ethernet port

What is the warranty?

According to the data sheet at the Seagate website, the standard warranty for their 6TB hard drive is 5 years (all listed models on the data sheet). Generally, the format ST6000NMxxxx have a 5-year warranty. But if sold in some "kit" (i.e. retail box--sold missing the NM), may only have a 2-year warranty. So it does pay to shop around.

What does the retail kit inlcudes?

The box I received did not include mounting screws or a cable. Just the bare bones drive and manual. Definitely not a "retail kit"!
