00:00:07,439 --> 00:00:14,400
today Rumble will be assisting me with the unboxing because this is a fairly

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:20,840
straightforward unboxing that I'm sure even he can handle so this is the

3
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:24,240
Western Digital 2 tbte re4 Edition hard

4
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:26,960
drive and what makes it re is the fact

5
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:31,080
that it has a much much longer meantime between failure than other drives okay

6
00:00:29,119 --> 00:00:36,520
Rumble I want you to grab the knife so I want you to slice the package right

7
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:38,640
there can you handle that good boy good

8
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:43,760
boy all right okay we're done with the knife now I want you to grab the hard

9
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:46,800
drive oh no no need you to take the

10
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:48,160
packaging off there we go I'll help you

11
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:53,600
a little bit okay I'll help you a little bit oh no don't go away don't go away

12
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:58,760
okay okay good boy Rumble okay take the hard drive K it out this is the most

13
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:03,799
reliable hard drive that you can pretty much get because say Western Digital

14
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:08,119
validates their Enterprise storage drives much more than their consumer

15
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:13,680
drives now their consumer drives are perfectly reliable however compared to

16
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:18,720
some consumer drives this Enterprise Drive has up to double the meantime

17
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:23,360
between failure it is otherwise just like a

18
00:01:21,799 --> 00:01:27,920
regular storage drive in that it connects via SATA power as well as SATA

19
00:01:26,079 --> 00:01:32,079
2 or SATA 3 depending on what kind of a drive you're going for and it's got the

20
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:36,880
same kind of platter technology in there it spins at 7200 RPM so all that stuff's

21
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:42,159
pretty straightforward it has 64 Ms of cash and uh you can strap it to a cat to

22
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:45,920
add more storage to your cat and it is more likely to last for a long time

23
00:01:44,079 --> 00:01:51,600
because it is an Enterprise grade product so why would you want an Enterprise grade product I can give you

24
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:57,799
a few good examples so number one oh he's getting mad okay he can go thank

25
00:01:53,640 --> 00:02:01,439
you good boy uh so number one is if it's

26
00:01:57,799 --> 00:02:04,560
going to be really hit hit hard a lot in

27
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:05,840
terms of data accesses um Reads wres

28
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:11,000
Moving the heads around basically if it's going to be under heavy load if it's going to be used in a 24/7

29
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:15,040
application if it's going to be used for streaming media or some kind of server

30
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,800
application you're probably better off with an re series drive for example in

31
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:23,560
my Home Server um and this is just a Home Server

32
00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:28,239
this is not like a proper server uh where I've got like about 20 drives in

33
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:33,680
there I've probably had oh including that one I've probably had 10 drives

34
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:38,920
fail in the last few years here had I been using reer drives as

35
00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:42,440
opposed to like refurbished consumer drives I wouldn't have run into that and

36
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:46,159
the reason that it gets that the drives get beat up so badly in a server

37
00:02:44,159 --> 00:02:49,840
environment like that it particularly Home Server is because I'm using a drive

38
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,200
pool which means that the data is constantly balancing around between all

39
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:57,239
the different drives in kind of a fake raid which means they're almost always

40
00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:02,000
being accessed a little bit they never get a break they never get you know shut

41
00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:05,319
down like a consumer computer would you know at night or over a weekend when you

42
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:09,640
go away it's running in a server environment and it's just not the

43
00:03:07,799 --> 00:03:13,080
intended use of those drives so we'll be back in just one second so I just wanted

44
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:18,200
to look up the warranty as well so these re drives have a 5-year warranty in to

45
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,799
go along with their 1.2 million hours of meantime between failure so thank you
