Review: Exceptional so far, great for intense AI surveillance - This is one of the best HDD drives I've used for my frigate surveillance system. Im using it with a Vantec enclosure via esata on my minicomputer running many ai object detection through frigate and home assistant. I get around 75 days for 8 POE cameras of storage before it fills up. No problems at all so far. 8TB is a great amount of space. I plan to get another and add it to my NAS. Read/write speeds are exceptional
Review: The best NVR hard drive out there - My last Segate lasted over 7 years running 24/7/365. So far it has been a year and there have been zero issues and it is very quiet in my NVR. Worth spending a little extra now to prevent less heartache later on with a bad hard drive.

Worked as expected in my Reolink NVR camera system in order to increase the video storage capacity. The price is reasonable for the amount of storage. It has lasted about 6 months now with no issue and no loss of video data.
