WD Red 14TB NAS HDD Overview and NAS Configuration
Western Digital released a new line of Red NAS drives in November of 2019 and among the newly launched drives a 14TB HDD was released; expanding the maximum capacity for the line’s HDDs. Purpose built for NAS system compatibility WD Red (non-pro) drives are ideal for home and small business NAS systems with up to 8 bays running in a 24/7 environment while supporting up to a 180 TB/year workload rate.
We have 12x 14TB WD Red NAS HDDs (168TB) and 4x 1TB WD Red NAS SSDs that we're configuring for performance review within a QNAP TS-1685. We will start with the standard review set of 8x HDDs, then move into testing with Qtier to see how fast we can make 168TB of HDDs feel.
