These include vibration sensors - Seagate dubs them "AgileArray" that minimise vibration, which is important if you're putting them into a NAS with multiple drive heads. Seagate's base line NAS-capable drives sell with IronWolf branding, and they're built with specific technologies on board to maximise their effective lifespan. Seagate IronWolf Credit: Seagate Seagate IronWolf Hard Drive We're not presenting this list as a grouping of tested drives, but more an informed look at the drives and technologies you should consider when buying drives to populate a NAS - or replace drives that have recently failed. Even then, variability could lead figures astray. Realistically the only way to do so would involve potentially years of testing over hundreds of drives to eliminate small scale batch issues and ensure identical usage patterns. Testing NAS drives is a less than precise process.
