      With gigabit NBN you can just stream them all and don't need it XD

          I only need 8 seconds to download Linux.

        Not everything is available on Streaming services.

        Plex + Sonarr + Radarr + NZB360 9S (Android app) + fast Internet = if i don't have it i open NZB360 on my phone and search for a TV show or movie and in a few minutes it's on plex ready to watch.

            @BigLeviathan: I use radarr but occasionally it downloads a dud (eg non-english or fake). Does this happen to anyone else?

          • Barsyn on 06/06/2020 - 00:14

            @BigLeviathan: Perhaps it's socially easier to talk about Netflix and infer you're paying for content.

            Most people wouldn't know about Plex and how that works.

            @KBZ: NZBGeek is always a good bet, especially with their lifetime package. drunkenslug is also pretty good

            • BigLeviathan on 04/06/2020 - 21:47

              @theg00s3: do you have a spare invite for drunkenslug? I'd be happy to get one too

              • theg00s3 on 04/06/2020 - 22:17

                @BigLeviathan: @televisi sorry, I gave all my invites away the last time usenet was brought up on OzB. However, they do usually open up for public registration quite often, so if you set up an alert with visualping.io to scan for changes on https://drunkenslug.com/register, you should get an email when registration opens again

                • BigLeviathan on 04/06/2020 - 22:26

                  @theg00s3: Thanks for reminding me about visualping.io, interesting enough I've setup this alert since donkey years and the last 1-month history check shows 'website timeout'

                • BigLeviathan on 20/06/2020 - 10:08

                  @theg00s3: Thanks for your reminder re: visualping.io, got the alert this morning that they now accepts the registration, woho!!!

          • Blokeinhisundies on 04/06/2020 - 21:06

            @KBZ: Wow thanks for all the suggestions guys I managed to get drunken slug before they lo ked up registrations. Might look in to nzbgeek since alot of you have suggested as well.

        • theg00s3 on 04/06/2020 - 20:58

          I'm similar. I use Jellyfin instead of Plex, and LunaSea instead of NZB360 (I use an iPhone)

            @theg00s3: My go to is nzbgrabit… Just find it easy elevating all the old stuff and new stuff.

      Yup, that's why OP said it is Seagate Barracuda Pro inside.

      One of the better shuckable drives imo. It is pretty straightforward to do.

      Real Answer: There are many elements to add when making an OzBargain post… They feel like they are going to miss something out (I did the same thing on my first post).

      For example, they got to add the delivery costs, title and a whole bunch of other stuff in the correct order which OzBargain listings are meant to be posted

        Because ozbargain community are crazy and mean. While the mod here are idiots and lazy in improving the sites, they just put some instructions and leave it to users.

  • tlai on 04/06/2020 - 20:04

    This vs wd elements?

    • dualcore on 04/06/2020 - 20:35
      +3

      WD Elements are NAS drives and often helium filled, they’re good for running 24/7.

      If you just need a PC drive then always get whatever is the cheapest.

      • slam on 05/06/2020 - 09:24

        The barracuda pros are helium filled too.

        I have 3 of these 10TB shucked running in a NAS. So far so good.

    • Typical16-bitEnjoyer on 05/06/2020 - 09:45

      WD shucked may require the 3.3v pin method to work. (google it)

  • BigLeviathan on 04/06/2020 - 20:07

    I suspect for warranty claim we would need to send it back to Amazon US?

    • dualcore on 04/06/2020 - 20:35
      +15

      Correct but under ACL they are supposed to cover your postage.

      Amazon however refused to do this when I tried getting a defective pair of US headphones repaired. I emailed Jeff bezos, no reply yet.

    • bataleon on 04/06/2020 - 21:20
      +3

      I bought one a few months ago (the last Amazon deal) and it needed to be replace under warranty. I contacted Seagate Australia and they replaced it for me. I had to pay local postage only.

      • garetz on 05/06/2020 - 07:13

        thats good to know, makes this an even better deal.

    • [Deactivated] on 20/06/2020 - 18:14

      What's the warranty?

  • Marty-69 on 04/06/2020 - 20:25
    +1

    Any advantages (except for cheap) or disadvantages running this in a Synology NAS compared to using a NAS drive like the IronWolf?
    I'm thinking of replacing my two WD60EFAX (6TB Red) with two of these.

    • dualcore on 04/06/2020 - 20:37
      +6

      Advantages:
      • so much cheaper
      • non-SMR better than your WD60EFAX. Read up on it.

      Disadvantages:
      • no warranty after shucking (unless you our it back carefully)
      • firmware not optimised for 24/7 NAS operation but it’ll work fine

      NEVER buy the WD60EFAX. It just never makes sense.

      • Marty-69 on 04/06/2020 - 20:46
        +1

        Thanks, when I bought the WD60EFAX I was not aware of the SMR issues. Luckily I got them cheap and I needed a few temporarily disk quick.

      • BigLeviathan on 04/06/2020 - 21:38

        wow, this is the first time I heard.
        I suspect the "WD red drive NAS" is just merely marketing propaganda?

    • Void on 04/06/2020 - 20:39
      +1

      Just more enduring really and designed to run continuously. If your NAS is being accessed constantly and not giving the drive a break a NAS drive is better, but if it's just a casual home media server then this should be perfect.

      • Marty-69 on 04/06/2020 - 20:48

        My DS418play runs FTP, Plex, Docker and NFS. I can hear the disks going 24x7.

        • Void on 04/06/2020 - 22:25

          NAS drive is probably for you then.

  • [Deactivated] on 04/06/2020 - 20:48

    Does this have a us plug? The last drive I bought I needed to use a transformer, or I'm too scared not too but that was a long time ago aka 2tb lol

    • Caped Baldy on 04/06/2020 - 20:53

      Comes with all of them. So you connect the correct one to the power supply

      • VerticallyIntegrated on 04/06/2020 - 22:05

        I'm trusting/hoping the reviews are accurate and the plug is like Apple power packs where you can select the pins for the region you're in.

        • Caped Baldy on 04/06/2020 - 22:06

          I bought this back in December and it is. Beats contacting customer service like you would have to do with WD.

    • BigLeviathan on 04/06/2020 - 21:39

      the amazon ad clearly stated "US Plug"; although the review and comments mixed

    • Blokeinhisundies on 04/06/2020 - 22:07

      Whilst a lot of the older reviews have complaints about a US only plug the newer reviews all say it has multiple plugs.

            @johnnytran: Not sure to be honest, if you’re not going to shuck then I think they are basically on par, an external usb 3.0 Drive.

            Don’t really know as I always shuck these bad boys
