Seagate Enterprise Capacity (Exos) 20TB 3.5" HDD

Was looking for a drive to compete with the Seagate Ironwolf Pro 16TB and I've found it in the new larger Seagate Enterprise 20TB. Larger drive, very cost effective (compared to the old Ironwolf 16TB pricing). The addition of helium instead of air inside the 20TB enterprise drive to reduce drag on spinning platters, reduce power consumption is also a welcome addition. Have had this drive installed for a few months now and no issues to report. Courier delivery was literally overnight. Impressive.

20TB is more expensive per TB than lower capacity drives but is a great upgrade and power savings from multiple smaller HDDs I was using.
No issues and works perfectly in a USB enclosure. 20TB is more expensive per TB than lower capacity drives but is a great upgrade and power savings from multiple smaller HDDs I was using.

I bought it to get more space on my computer.
I am using it as an additional disk drive by connecting it directly to my computer.
Like other reviews, it makes periodic noise compared to regular hard disks, but it's not that annoying. I bought it to get more space on my computer.

Not overly loud for a HDD. No problems with 3 of them in my system so far. Not overly loud for a HDD. No problems with 3 of them in my system so far.

I've bought a few of this exact model from PB Tech now and they're just great! I've bought a few of this exact model from PB Tech now and they're just great!

Will it make noise, of course, it's a HDD, not an SDD. But is it also a solid piece of equipment, yes. I have this running a lot and haven't noticed any real degradation in performance at all.
