Feb 25, 2014Should i buy WD Red for my NAS or normal drives ?
I own two ReadyNas 4 Pro and i'm about to upgrade my drives to 4tb. Now i need to decide if i take WD Red drives or just go with the Seagate 4TB which is almost $50 cheaper. Is there any reason why...

Feb 25, 2014Thanks for the answer guys
How much are those 5TB external HD ?
4tb Reds are at around 180$ right now, i don't expect 5TB to be more than 250$ish ... I'd buy one at this price but i don't know if it's worth the wait
Also, any idea why customers reviews are very bad against the Red drives compared to the Green ones ? Everywhere i checked the reds had a lot more complaints than the greens :/
5TB drives are on the way. They have started to appear in externals and it's only a matter of time before they are available as internal hard drives. However don't expect them to be cheap on launch. You would likely find 3TB or 4TB drives much more affordable.
