Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Due to some issue with this drive and Synology, Synology does not enable a write cache for it. That's pretty messed up for a drive that's built for NAS usage and for the partnership that Synology and Seagate claim to have. Search for ST10000VN0004-1ZD101 and write cache in google and you'll see the issue. It seems like the newer 10 TB model ST10000VN0008 does not have this issue. The only problem is that no one really sells that yet. I'd stay clear of this drive for use with Synology. There is no definitive timeline for a fix. Other than that, the disks are pretty loud whenever they're written to. It may be made worse due to the lack of the write cache since anything will cause the disk to write immediately. I'll be sending these back and perhaps the Synology as well.
