case exceptional expansion and cooling flexibility for compact high performance PCS visit Corsair.com obsidian to learn more welcome to my unboxing and First Look aha at a type of packaging that you'll likely never see so this is a four pack of seat's new NZ hard drive so what is a NZ hard drive see it requires a lot of explanation because similar to seates competitor who also has a Nas optimized drive this one has a very cryptic name that doesn't in any way imply the functional oh wait no it's called a NZ hard drive okay so it's for nazes it's available in a variety of capacities up to 4 terabyte which for a consumer grade NAS drive is right now the highest capacity that you can get it comes with a three-year warranty it uses a SATA 3 6 GB per second interface not that that matters in any way shape or form because quite frankly the things that matter for Naz drives are a couple of things so number one is vibration tolerance these ones are optimized for anywhere from 1 to five drives in an enclosure and they are optimized to not be interfered with by the other drives around them the next thing is workload so these are rated for a 24/7 workload however not to the same sort of extent that you'd find on something like a Seagate constellation es which is their their Enterprise class drive it's also designed for quiet operation which is important if you're using your Nas or your hard drive enoder encloser hard drive encloser it's a new thing I just invented a hard drive enclosure on something like a desktop next to your PC and you don't want to sit around and listen to it and um of course cost is a factor so as a consumer grade device this particular NAS drive is not very expensive performance takes a back seat with a Nas hard drive and the reason for that is because most nasas are going to be limited not by the performance of the drives inside but by the performance of the network interface attached to them in most cases gigabit which one of these drives can max out never mind if you go and Chuck like four of them in an enclosure running in RAID 10 which or something like that um or they're going to be held back by the controller involved which in most nases is not going to be able to handle more than gigabit operation anyway in something like a raid five which is what I personally would usually run four drives in as long as I have a
