Seagate NAS HDD 4TB Review

One of the best-known storage benchmarking tools is HD Tune, as it’s easy to run, covers a wide-range of testing scenarios, and can do other things such as test for errors, provides SMART information and so forth. For our testing with the program, we run the default benchmark which gives us a minimum, average and maximum speeds along with an access time result, and also the Random Access test, which gives us IOPS information.

Seagate’s NAS HDD has an excellent showing here, landing itself midway up the charts with regards to read and write throughput. Its access times are a bit lacking, but typical of low-RPM offerings (and still beats WD’s Red).

Simply fantastic continued performance here.
