#Synology nas compatible hard drives pro#
today announced compatibility results for new WD Red ® and WD Red Pro 3.5-inch NAS hard drives, including WD60EFRX (6 TB), WD50EFRX (5 TB), WD4001FFSX (4 TB), WD3001FFSX (3 TB), WD2001FFSX (2 TB). Enterprise class drives are designed for constant operation (typically 24 hours a day, 7 days a week) and have higher MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) rates as well as higher load/unload cycles. Taipei, TaiwanJuly 30, 2014Synology ® Inc. Desktop class drives are designed for less stressful operation (typically 8 hours a day, 5 days a week) and have limited load/unload cycles. We also encourage you to select drives that most closely align with your planned workload. These drives generally include 5-year warranties, which matches the 5-year warranty on your business-class ReadyNAS device. Furthermore, if you are using ReadyNAS in a business-critical environment, we strongly recommend drives with a Rotation Vibration Safeguard feature for providing an extra layer of protection from premature drive failure. If you are looking at Seagate drives, for example, the NAS-class drives are called the IronWolf, IronWolf Pro, IronWolf SSD, and IronWolf SSD and HDD lines. Not what you're looking for? Go back to the ReadyNAS Hardware Compatibility List.īecause you trust ReadyNAS to protect your data, we only list drives that have passed stringent disk qualification tests.
