Best Buy Black Friday Solid State Hard Drives

Compared to old Hard drive which was not solid state, the new drive respond time is noticeable. Did not want to change drives because thought I was wasting money $243. but after changing drives glad I did. Ron I

I am IT guy who replaces mechanical hard drives with solid state hard drives approximately once per week. This is a great brand, with a good product at a great price. If you want to compare SSDs, look for the highest number of Input / Output Per Second (IOPs) to best judge performance. Read/write speed is not a good indicator. I would rate the drive as a B+, which is more great for most uses.

These are the only hard disk drives that I ever buy anymore! I love the reliability of the WD Caviar Black series over other brands I have used in the past. I have had several internal hard disks fail that were included in computers purchased over the years & once I started replacing the inferior brands with new Caviar Black drives, I have not had any further issues.

I used this drive to clone a laptop hard drive to a solid state drive. Worked well.

Purchased this during the Black Friday promotion with B&H Payboo credit promotion that saved me state sales tax. This upgrades my 220+ dual core processor to a newer quad core processor. All other specs are the same. Synology has the lead in software, ease of installation and a host of supporting features. I use it to store all my Youtube videos, auto upload all my photos, and as a backup to all my video and music collections. I do use Plex frequently to watch content from mobile devices. Easy to purchase, fast shipment, and running perfectly. Best entry level 2-bay NAS on the market. I populated it with 2-16TB drives, and upgraded the memory. No problems with using 3rd party drives and memory although Synology does give you a reminder message during install that you aren't using their private label hardware.

Cost effective cable for migrating my old hard drive to new solid state drive.

I now have 4 of these hard drives and prefer the simple settings and sleek, black look.

Have had no trouble with my other Caviar Black Hard Drives so was happy to give these 4TB drives a spin as well.

This mounting kit worked well when converting my iMac from a hard drive to a solid state drive.

(Please note I did NOT say a solid state NAS drive.) Seagate NAS drives provide great storage capacity, in a standard-sized package, and they're designed for NAS. Highly recommend.
