Review: My data on my terms. - This review is for the Western Digital 20TB WD Red Pro NAS Internal Hard Drive HDD - 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, CMR, 512 MB Cache, 3.5" - WD202KFGX. The products arrived on time and in great condition. I bought these to install them into a UGREEN interface. I wanted to use them as RAID drives. The UGREEN device supplied mounting hardware for these drives and everything lined up correctly. I installed the drives and formatted them using the UGREEN interface. Please realize that when you format two 20 TB drives as RAID drives, formatting can take up over a day to complete. So, don't be in a hurry and don't think there is something wrong when it just doesn't happen in a flash. Both drives worked perfectly and I am very pleased with how the UGREEN interface uses them. The reason that I got the interface was because I had recently lost a USB hard drive that was connected to my computer. Not sure what made the drive go bad, but all attempts to recover the data from the drive were futile. I could send the drive off to some places that recover data, but that can cost into the thousands. I was looking for a replacement hard drive like the one I had and then I read a review from someone who lost the information off of his hard drive and he made a great point. The manufacture of the hard drive will stand by their warranty, but you must send your old drive back to them before they will send the new one out. He was not comfortable with letting a hard drive company have his old disk with all of its data. The company could easily fix what was wrong with the drive and possibly collect all of the data that is on it. That might seem paranoid, but I have had too many hackers take over some of my accounts online and I don't want anyone having access to my data. So, instead of just buying a new hard drive that could one day fail again and lose all the data, he suggested buying this UGREEN interface with two to several hard drives set up in a RAID configuration. In this configuration, if only one hard drive fails, you still have all of you data on the other hard drive. This way, if you need to send the hard drive back to take advantage of the warrantee, you might be able to just reformat the old drive if it works at all and then send it back for the replacement. However, if the drive is too far gone to reformat it, you just forget about the warrantee and order a new hard drive. Since you data is safe on the other drive, you don't have to worry about losing it. You get the new drive and put it into the interface and the interface automatically syncs the new drive to all the data. You at least have a chance this way to take advantage of the warrantee and you maintain your data in a safe place. If you can't take advantage of the warrantee on the hard drive, then you can take a sledge hammer to the drive to destroy its ability to impart the data to anyone. This just made more sense to me. And the added benefit of this UGREEN interface is that you don't need to connect it to a computer through the USB. You connect it to your home network using an ethernet cable. Then with the UGREEN app, you can store and retrieve your data from any of your devices on your network. This is like having your own cloud storage, but it is in you house instead of being out there in the ether. And you can reach the drive remotely when you are away from home as long as you have internet access. I have a DROPBOX account, but I am thinking of backing up my DROPBOX data onto this drive. Then, if I am home and there is no internet, but my home network is still working, I can get to all the information that has been stored on DROPBOX because it is also on my home network drive. I have been using the UGREEN interface for several weeks and it and the two hard drives have been functioning great. So, this is something to consider. Review: Works fine but let's talk about the "noise" that some don't like - This drive worked perfectly upon installation and I've had no problems with it in over 2 weeks. I'm using it for Time Machine backups via an external disk attachment on a 7 year old Mac. Time Machine runs about once an hour. However, I noticed that some reviewers are complaining about the noise on this drive and I want to use my IT professional background to give some insight into what might be going on for them so that others can make an informed decision on this drive. I have the 2 TB drive. I don't personally find this drive to be loud and it's running in an external disk drive enclosure. It runs about once an hour for however long Time Machine needs to run. When the drive is in use, it does make some noise, but it can't be heard at all outside of the room it's in. I sleep in the room next to where it lives and both rooms are always open and I've never had this drive make enough noise to be heard beyond maybe 7 feet from it and it can barely be heard at that distance. So why are some people complaining rather bitterly about how loud this drive is? First of all, it's an old school mechanical drive. It will make some noise when in use. That is the nature of these drives. And the more you use them and the more filled up they get, the more likely they are to make some noise on use. It is also possible that some drives off the manufacturing line are better than others, some are worse, and some of the people who complain just by bad luck got a noisy one. I don't find the noise I'm hearing to be unusual for this type of drive. I've heard a lot worse. Also, if someone is going to use this drive with a lot of file deletions and additions, it's going to make more noise. My suggestion for people who are extremely noise sensitive is to consider paying more and using SSDs instead. They won't make any noise. This drive has worked exactly as I intended it to work and I would recommend it to others. Again, please note that this is a mechanical drive and its lifespan is expected to be much lower than that of an equivalent SSD. You should probably think about replacing it after 3-4 years whereas for a 2 TB SSD, ,in theory you could get decades of heavy use before it goes bad. That's why SSDs cost more. ## Features - Available in capacities ranging from 2 to 22TB(1) | (1) 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes.

Even WORSE packing 🀬 *by P***T on April 8, 2022* I purchased a pair of these on Black Friday 2021 well in advance of when I would actually need to use them. They sat on my shelf unopened in their original boxes for over 3 months. When I went to install and use them, one drive was OK. (I have a pair of media servers with 24 large drives in them) The other drive was riddled with errors, would not format and made any machine it was connected to unstable. This is a BRAND NEW DRIVE WITH ZERO HOURS ON IT!!! Because of my own stupidity I did not test them when I got them. Now for that mistake I can only get my new drive replaced with a used refurbished drive. It gets worse. I have had TREMENDOUS trouble getting into my Western Digital account and receiving information from Western Digital. I guess Western Digital is an Indian or Pakistan company. I cannot understand these people. I have spent days and days and more days on the phone just trying to get an RMA. I sent the drive to California where it was received and has sat for 4 weeks. Western Digital does not even show they received my drive yet and that they are still waiting for it. I called them on the phone and they looked it up and promised to update things. Nothing has happened in a further 2 weeks. It is my conclusion that Western Digital warranties are worthless. I wasted $400 on one of drives and the alternative drive company is even worst than this. Update: Nov 9 2025 I just received 2 more 26TB drives November 9, 2025. They look used!!! They did not even have boxes, just bare drives thrown in a shipping box with ZERO packing materials. NONE!!!! Of course they were D.O.A. 🀬 These were thrown in the box like junk to travel 2500 miles from Washington State to N.C. Just bare drives with a printed white label saying "NEW". Are you kidding me? I don't think I have ever been this angry to get Eleven hundred dollars of used Dead drives. What are you people thinking Amazon/Western Digital. I fault both equally. Update to the UPDATE: Nov 12 2025 I just received 2 replacements to the 2 bare drives above with no packing materials. The second set also from Seatac, WA (also no packing materials) arrived with one drive alive and the other dying. The first is still formatting after 15 hours (long format). The second drive took over a minute to come online, vibrates like crazy and is clicking and internally seeking and calibrating a lot. I am trying to do a format but it won't be done for at least 24 hours. The 2nd drive is going back for sure. All these 26TB drives are OEM bare drives in just a static bag, no box or packing AT ALL!!! I am shocked these work at all banging around for 2500 miles to NC. I ordered 3 more Gold Enterprise drives from somewhere else. I no longer trust Amazon for mechanical hard drives. I am done. ## Frequently Bought Together - Western Digital 2TB WD Red Pro NAS Internal Hard Drive HDD - 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, CMR, 64 MB Cache, 3.5" - WD2002FFSX - Synology 2-Bay DiskStation DS223j (Diskless) - Seagate IronWolf 4TB NAS Internal Hard Drive CMR 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 5400 RPM 64MB Cache for RAID Network Attached Storage Rescue Services (ST4000VNZ06/006) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/31614596-2tb-wd-red-pro-nas-internal-hard-drive-hdd-7200](https://www.desertcart.us/products/31614596-2tb-wd-red-pro-nas-internal-hard-drive-hdd-7200) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-22*
