WD Red Pro
6 TB, 3.5", CMR
Question about WD Red Pro
I have a Synology DS416Play+ with 4 6TB WD Red drives. According to my research, they are CMR discs. Is this hard drive compatible with this NAS? According to the compatibility page, the first part of the model number matches. The second is missing here at Digitec. From Synology: Western Digital Enterprise NAS 3.5" SATA HDD Red Pro WD6003FFBX - 68MU3N0 83.00A83 6TB My RED (of which 4 are currently in the NAS and one is about to drop out): WD60EFRX - 68L0BN1
Helpful answer
It should work. I also had 5x WD Red Pro. One broken. Spare part was not with correct serial number. But everything was OK.
I bought these together with the Synology DS220+ and they were perfectly compatible.
It works very well for me. I have the same NAS.

The new drive (WD Red Pro, as the compatible Red was no longer available) worked without any problems for the restore.
It was important to note that CMR and the other storage technology should not be mixed.
Thanks for your help.
I have 8 of them running in my NAS. So far without any problems.
Thanks everyone, so order this HD and let me know if it worked out.
