Exos X22 22TB Internal Server Hard Drive ST22000NM00C 3.5" HDD SATA 6Gb/s 512E SED 7200RPM 512MB Cache (Refurbished)

Knocking 1 star off as packaging was pretty poor for an expensive item - zero shock protection

This is the 6th time I have bought this item. They are exactly as described and arrive in robust packaging to protect the drive in transit. They provide excellent value. I use multiple large drives in a multi-bay Sabrent trayless docking station unit for my huge photo, video and media collections. I also use these drives for onsite backups.

Perfecto, según lo especificado.

17 Jan, 2025: I got a UGreen NAS. I put these two 22TB drives in it (from a 2 bay Asustor). (Which are still working perfectly!) I figured that would get me by until I'd figured out how much I like the UGreen and I didn't feel like an idiot for spending that kind of money. Well, I like the UGreen A LOT! I can't make myself wait! I ordered two more of these. I may leave another update when they get here. If there's something wrong with them, I'll leave an update for sure. At the very least, you'll know they work fine, too, if there are no further updates. For awhile, I was going to play musical hard drives with either 14 TB or 16 TB or 18 TB Exos drives, all of which I have two of. But after all that shopping, I realized the sweet spot has moved from that size to 22 TB anyway! And I don't have to play musical hard drives. And this way, I can put one or both 14 TB's in my computer or even one in each computer. I'm glad I did it this way. The 16 and 18 TB drives are in a Synology, and it deals with different hard drives really well, with Synology Hybrid RAID. These, as usual, were in perfect condition and perfectly packed! I have 4 NAS', 3 Asustors and a Synology. not sure, but there might be might be a couple Iron Wolf's left in there, but they're almost all Exos NAS hard drives. Plus I have about 6 Exos hard drives that came out of them when I put in bigger hdd's. I have NEVER had a problem with a "renewed" Exos (or Iron Wolf) hard drive. And I've gotten at least 12 or 14 of them. I cringe when I think of how much these probably cost when they were new!! (Time 12!!!) The Asustors work like clockwork, The Synology warns me that these drives aren't on Synology's "comatable drive" list, I hit "Proceed Anyway" or whatever, and they're off and running. By the time you get up to 20 - 22 TB, it takes DAYS! One of these Asustors is only two bays, so it got these (22TB) drives. I stole two 20TB drives they replaced and put them in the Synology. Everything is now finished except the "Data Scrubbing" (clean-up) on the Synology. The Asustor has 3.6 hours to go. Then I have to let it know that I want to expand that RAID. The Synology uses the Synology Hybrid RAID system, which makes MUCH better use of hard drives that aren't all the same size. It's going to need that expanded too, when it's done data scrubbing. These are great drives!! They use relatively little power (I've got off-grid solar, so that matters to me), their MTBF is 2.5 million hours, they transfer up to 200 megs per second, depend on where on the platters the heads are, and the price is way right if you do a little shopping. I'm not saying it's impossible to get a bad one, but I am saying it's EXTREMELY unlikely! Absolutely satisfied! They run a little cooler than "regular" drives because the platters are easier to spin in helium than in air, and that's always welcome. "Formatability" and "Ease of installation" are more a matter of the NAS than of the hard drive, but I thought I would try to get all the check marks. If you put them in a modern Ausustor or a modern Synology, they're easy to install without tools, and they format perfectly. (BTRFS)

Reçu défectueux: - essais dans plusieurs ordinateurs/servers, non reconnu par les systèmes - inséré, émet un beep étrange toutes les 4 secondes, sans les plateaux qui tournent - un coin cabossé Bref, une perte de temps dans cette loterie, vu certains messages d'autres clients

HDD arrivati negli imballi di cartoni originali e sigillati. Nulla da dire. Ovviamente factory ricondizionati
