## Questions & Answers

**Q: This hard drive is incredibly noisy. Like it is eating celery non-stop all day. Why?**
A: Could it be that you do not have it installed on mounts with rubber isolation?  Are you using it as an operating system drive or swap drive?  Mine are all whisper quiet, but used for large file storage and are mounted in plastic cages with rubber isolators.  Any drive is going to be noisy if it's hard mounted to metal and has to seek all the time.

**Q: Does this drive have international WD warranty?**
A: That's a legal question and the answer may depend on where you are located.  You should ask Western Digital directly.  Also, a warning: some sellers here on Amazon sell OEM drives which do not have a Western Digital warranty.  This has happened to me three times.  In each case, Amazon has helped me exchanged the drive for one that was under warranty.  I make it a habit to register every new drive with Western Digital as soon as I receive it.  That way I'm sure it is under warranty.

**Q: compatible with ext4**
A: Yes.

**Q: My dell t3600 does not support 12tb drive. has anyone been successful in using a simple add-on storage controller with 12tb? what brand/model?**
A: Hi, the problem is coming from the BIOS and from the Brand of the hard disk. try to update your bios and/or go to the website of dell to download specific fix on the support page.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Drives at a Great Price Point, but LOUD!
*by M***E on May 29, 2022*

The media could not be loaded. I bought 6 of these Western Digital 12TB Gold drives as replacements for 6 x 6TB Western Digital Red drives, as it was time to upgrade the size of my RAID 5 array and these Gold drives were one of the few on a list of compatible larger capacity drives for my now aging Synology 1813+ NAS.The WD Red drives served me very well, were quiet, and I had no complaints about them at all, so this was really a decision based solely on price (at the time of purchase, the 12TB Gold drives cost $229 each) and capacity. The equivalent Red drives were about $30-50 more a piece than the Golds at the time of purchase, so I went with the Golds.The conversion took about a week's time of removing a 6TB drive and letting it rebuild the array on the Gold drives (each Gold drive was formatted completely and then had a full SMART scan done on them, none of the 6 drives had any errors or defects).However, once I converted to having all 6 of the 12TB Golds in my array, I immediately noticed an uptick in the noise level, even during normal operation. The sound of these drives when they seek or perform any kind of scan and/or data scrubbing (all the drives generally aren't going unless data scrubbing or a full SMART scan is running) is much louder than the Reds. I expected an uptick in noise due to them being "Enterprise" (a.k.a. designed for a datacenter) and 7200RPM, but I was surprised at how audible the sound is. The attached video I took to give you an idea of the noise level. The amibiant sound can be ignored (fan hum and sound of a network switch) but the "cachunk"-ing you hear is all the seeking of the drives. I recorded it with my phone on top of the NAS directly in contact with it, and then from about a foot away from the NAS so you can get a sense of the sound. This was taken during normal operation (watching a video off the NAS from a single workstation).When it's doing data scrubbing you can hear my NAS from the hallway outside the room it sits in. Luckily it sits in an office and not in our bedroom or somewhere guests would normally be. However anyone who may have their NAS or server in their bedroom or near a workstation you use frequently would likely get annoyed by the constant sound of the seeking of these drives. If this sits in your basement or a closet somewhere, you'd probably have less of an issue of the sound. It also may be because I use a NAS rather than a server that might have more sound dampening built into it.Other than the noise, however, the performance of these drives is great. Not really a noticeable improvement over the Reds, but the price per TB and the extra warranty is awesome.I still highly recommend these drives, just be wary of the increased noise level, especially if you are moving from a non-Enterprise 5400/5900RPM drive to something like these.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shockingly fast, quiet, and cool.  You've found your solution.  Just buy it.
*by P***F on May 13, 2020*

I've been lamenting the death of the Raptor line for some time now; but I think I know what happened to that firmware after buying this. It's not running at 10,000 RPM, but it sure performs like it does, and it's very quiet.You will likely have to initialize this the old fashioned way, which I did. It's not going to be just "plug and play" in the modern sense; more "plug and play" in the 2002 sense; but that's fine. It's easy to do and takes less than a minute.In that process, you know precisely how it's set up, which is a rarity with modern components. Don't worry, anyone can do this. It's not a headache; it's just something a new generation may never have done before.Performance is absolute insanity. I never thought a 7200RPM drive would shunt data around like this. I wouldn't have believed it if you told me. It's stupid fast. It's fast enough to edit 4K 10bit without moving the data to solid state. Edit right off the HDD if you want.Gaming? Absolutely. Watch those load times drop, and have a drive that will last a long time. Enterprise drives (the Raptor line was indeed enterprise) last a long time. I've got drives that are forty years old and still moving data. I've got similar WD drives that are twenty years old and have never been parked. The first Velociraptor drive ever released is ten feet from me right now and happily doing it's thing; clear top and all. I stood in the front of the line AT the release event AT the convention and and purchased it right there when the clock ticked over to release date.It still works.This thing feels like a refined Raptor (the improved 2.5 version of the Velociraptor) in use. It's not just for data centers and office complexes. This is for whoever wants a blisteringly fast hard drive that's got a long warranty and legendary reliability and longevity.Gamers, content creators, editors, archivists... Whoever you are, if you're looking at this and wondering if you should do it... Here's your answer: Just click "Add to cart" right now and get it over with. You'll end up with one eventually anyway, so just save the cash and buy it now before you have to buy it to replace a poor decision.Your computing life will thank you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast, Quiet, Reliable, and Cool
*by A***A on February 8, 2020*

This is my 6th WD Gold Hard Drive. I love them. I have many dozens of hard drives. I know what it's like to suffer a hard drive failure. Even with backups it's a pain. WD Gold drives make that situation unlikely because they are the most reliable drive in the business. I recommend ALL users buy these enterprise class drives and to avoid so-called consumer drives. These will likely serve you with much less trouble since they have by far the best MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) figures on the market today. It's worth the few extra $$$.This drive also runs extremely cool. Unlike my WD Black drives, which are very HOT to the touch, these Gold drives even when being written too 100% of the time run very cool. I dumped nearly 9TB onto this drive in one fell swoop and the drive never exceeded 100°F and under normal heavy usage runs at 95°F and at idle about 90°F. This is in a room with a constant ambient temp of 77°F.I've used at least a hundred drives over the last decade. The first enterprise class drives I bought 10 years ago and which run at 10,000rpm have been running 24/7/365 and are still running to this day. These WD Gold drives have a MTBF 2.5 times higher than those early drives. I place a high value on reliability.ADDED Nov 9, 2020I should mention that you should make sure you are buying retail drive and not an OEM. Western Digital will not warranty an OEM drive. OEM drives are usually cheaper, but getting support if you have an issue is entirely dependent on the seller's inclination to replace a defective drive. To ensure you get a retail drive on Amazon make sure the "seller" or "Sold by" and "shipped by" are both "Amazon".
