Great and reliable HDD, has been used daily for over a year.
Purchased this HDD more than a year ago and can safely say its still happily running in my NAS, with it having spent most of the time online since I purchased it in February 2024. Came packaged how a HDD should, and has no read errors.It did not come with its power on time reset so it shows the original online hours.I've attached an image of the drive's current stats for those who are interested.

Highly impressed with the performance
I am highly impressed with the performance of the Ultrastar hard disk, which has proven to be an excellent choice as a refurbished data center drive. Since installation, it has operated reliably without any issues and runs cooler than many competing drives, thanks to its helium-cooled design.Initially, I approached this purchase with some caution; however, I am pleased to report that this drive has outlasted several brand-new models in my setup. Ultrastar has established a strong reputation in the realm of data storage, and this hard disk lives up to that reputation, delivering robust performance and reliability. In my experience, these drives are exceptionally durable, making them a top contender for anyone seeking a bargain storage solution.

Good so far
Arrived in good condition visually , with one drive having 50,000 power on hours and the other having 75,000. They are bit loud but have not failed as of yet (1week)

not all arrived functional, but still great
Not every drive arrived functional, but amazon gave me my money back very swiftly. Drives perform normally and have good SMART readings.

The disk works fine after initializing and formatting it. Arrived with packaging that does not guarantee safety. I had a problem with the courier, who wanted me to collect it from one of his collection points. Thanks to the help of Amazon Customer Service, the package then arrived where it was supposed to arrive. For the moment it's working well, so for now I'm satisfied.
