So far so good

I took a chance on buying a brand I never heard of before. As far as reliability goes or life expectancy, I am not sure. I have had this drive almost for 30 days running 24 hours a day in a security recorder and no problems as of yet. The WL (White Label brand) drive runs cooler than the standard brand drives that I have, like Toshiba and Western Digital. The WL brand runs warm to the touch while WD runs hot. I am amazed how small this 4Tb drive is to the brands I just mentioned. For the price of this drive, I had to take a chance. I just wish this brand had even bigger sizes but it is a good upgrade from my 2TB drives. The big plus is, when I installed the WL drive, it worked properly after setting the proper running mode. I got my full 4TB. I have some side notes at the bottom just for your information that I had to do to get the drive to read full capacity in Windows.

Notes
The first time I installed it, I had to format it in GBT not MBR. MBR only gives you 2TB plus a little extra where the GBT gives you the full 4TB. I say that so you can be a where of that before buying.

Great Drive for the price

When they say "White Label" they mean it, I have no idea who makes these drives. I can't tell you how reliable they are because I haven't owned them long enough yet, I can tell you they are fast and surprisingly quiet for enterprise drives. I bought four and am using them both internally, and externally in a toaster dock for backups I can take off line. All four drives received work fine in that regard. I'm planning to buy another four next month and upgrade the 2TB drives in my other workstation.

They do have to be formatted before use, they come with directions to do that. I did find that I could not boot my Dell workstation with an unformatted drive in it, it hangs. I had to put them in the toaster and start it up after the machine booted. I do not know if that is just a quirk of my workstation or if you will run into that with other machines.

this 4TB drive seems too good to be real

The price was lower than I thought I would be. It took a little time to format but was easy enough. I'm using this drive to back up two computers with two terabyte drives.
So far I am well satisfied. I didn't rate the reliable box because i've only been using this drive for a few days. Time will tellRead full review...

Quite quick and affordable and very clean

Fast and easy setup. Just a plug and play so happy it's a pretty decent drive. I have had it installed for a week now and it's been great for me. It's quick and pretty quite as well. Can even easily be formatted for home surveillance systems as well.Read full review...

Just what you need, at a good price

Just what you need, without any price inflation from a fancy sticker. You do need to set partitions on these, but if you're the type to buy a drive like this, you already know how to do that.
