Crazy Good Bargain!
I bought 4 of these to put in a RAID 5 Array while upgrading an old server running a 2-3 year old Adaptec card.To my surprise, the almost 30TB array was configured and visible in VMWare ESXi 5.x within minutes!I do not know if this happened from day one or after a couple weeks of using the system in a test environment, but I noticed that removal of VM snapshots were taking an extraordinarily long time. Upon visual inspection, I noticed that one drive's activity light was on solid. Just moments ago, I replaced the drive in question and the array seems to be rebuilding itself as it should - hopefully fixing the snapshot removal issue.I have yet to run any drive tests on the drive that was showing constant activity, but I am willing to bet it needs to be sent back. Normally I wouldn't be happy, but for the price, I really can't complain about having an and extra 10TB drive laying around in case I have a problem with the array in the future.I'll try to update my review when I determine what the status of that one drive is and when I check on speeds after the array is rebuilt.

Good drive for the price
Drive installed and working fine for several weeks now. For a used/reconditioned drive, it only had a few hours of runtime recorded. Very happy so far.
