Purchasing process and delivery speed ++++
Thank you!
And have a great day, everyone!
The first time I saw the hard drives I was impressed by the physical volume. It's quite imposing. After all, they're 8TB and I think that justifies the price of the enterprise series. I already had an initial set of 6 hard drives on my Synology DS1621+ NAS and I've never had any problems. Thanks Synology. And thank you LDLC for the speed of shipping to Polynesia.
The delivery went well because the SYNOLOGY disks were well packaged. Once installed, they worked without a hitch. They are of very good quality and hardly heat up at all. The TOP!
These Synology disks are manufactured by Toshiba and are in fact N300s, which are cheaper to buy.
The advantage is that any drive updates are built into the DSM, so they're easy to do, which is not the case with the Toshiba drives.
On the other hand, these disks are fast and come with a 5-year guarantee, compared with 3 for the N300.
The same applies to SAS interface drives.
Super HDD. I ordered 2 for the installation of my Synology NAS and everything worked perfectly from the start. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank LDLC for the quality of their returns service and the tracking in general. It's reassuring to have a French service worthy of the name ????
I hesitated between Seagate and Western Digital, the behemoths of the sector, but in the end, being fully satisfied with all the Synology products I own, I finally chose this brand for my hard drives. Very good disk, silent, the real transfer rates are those announced thus more than honourable for a disk with trays. I have 4 of them and no worries. Operating temperature in a well ventilated Fractal Design Meshify 2XL enclosure, between 28 and. 30°C. 14.5TB available when formatted in NTFS. 5 stars to LDLC for the careful packaging (as usual) and fast delivery by Chronopost in French Polynesia. In short, I highly recommend it!
The rebuild went perfectly well. You have to be patient, a RAID system takes a long time to set up. From 2TB 5600 rpm to 12TB 7200 rpm = about three days of incessant work for the machine. Once it's done, it's a piece of cake... In relation to my last comment, the disks were making noise because they were extremely stressed during the RAID reorganisation. Now, at cruising speed, everything is fine. Access times are much better thanks to the 7200 rpm and the cache system. We now have a little more than 10TB out of the 12TB (5% is used by the NAS system in addition to the disk structure). Finally, there is less expensive, there is also more expensive. At the top of the range. The brand of the NAS manufacturer. Very good hardware.
Noisy disks during RAID rebuild. It may be that my damping system is not good enough, but there is a big difference... Maybe the larger capacity? I'll see what I can do with it. Otherwise very nice material. Fast. It's reliability that I'm looking for above all... which justified this nice purchase. I trust Synology.
