  • Says US$13.96 delivery for me.

  • SMR Archive HDD. Good for storing data. Not good for gaming.

      Keep your os, and games on a ssd and photos, and videos on the storage hdd.

  • I might try running one of my VMs off one of these. Be curious to see how well it goes on an SMR drive.

  • last one of these i popped open had the new Seagate Barracuda Compute drives inside… seems to be doing well in my nas, much better then the old archive drives…

  • I'm assuming the hard drive can be taken out and made internal?

    • have 2 of the 5tb plugged into a raspberry pi (samba/nextcloud/transmission/lamp) with no issues - current uptime is 70 days..

      • Thanks Campbell. Yeah i thought I'd move some bluray mkv rips off my NAS since it's not powerful enough to re-code on the fly and stream elsewhere in the house. But shields got it covered.

          I stopped using plex, as it was a wasted resource when i only stream locally.

          It (raspberry pi) streams to kodi on a number of different devices just takes a bit more setup but only uses 12w compared to the 100w of the previous setup.

          The next release of Kodi on android tv will make it an even nicer setup with voice search and recommendations that said I do prefer the layout of plex.

        • @Campbell: yeah I might try Kodi again once I go 4K. Cheers
