You can never have enough storage — believe me, I've filled up plenty of drives in my time. If you're searching for a decent Black Friday deal on a big drive (or two) to fill with your most important files, then you're in luck; There's an incredible offer on one of Western Digital's best and highest capacity NAS hard drives, with one dollar-saving catch. You can score a huge $200 saving, but you'll need to buy two of these 24TB WD Red Pro drives to get it, netting you a huge 48TB of storage as a result.
Western Digital's WD Red Pro 24TB hard drive (with the model name WD241KFGX) is based on the company's latest 11-platter helium-sealed platform, featuring a 7,200 RPM spindle speed and OptiNAND technology.
The drive features Western Digital's 2nd Generation energy-assisted perpendicular magnetic recording (ePMR 2) platform, using conventional magnetic recording (CMR) for predictable performance in all workloads. Speaking of performance, the WD Red Pro 26TB boasts a 272 MB/s transfer rate, which is pretty decent for a traditional hard drive like this one.
This is an enterprise-grade NAS drive, so high performance and longevity are its focus. It's designed to work in vibrating, multi-user environments, non-stop, and is rated for a 550TB workload per year. It's also equipped with rotation vibration sensors that are designed to predict and adjust to turbulence caused by vibration, along with multi-axis shock sensors to detect dangerous (to your data) shock events, compensating for them with fly height technology.
That doesn't mean that this drive is exclusively for high pressure, high demand environments, however. You can easily use this in a home-based NAS or — if you want huge amounts of storage closer to hand — you can install it directly inside your PC with no issues.
There aren't too many great deals on hard drives going around for Black Friday, so if you're thinking about expanding your storage with with a total of 48TB of space, you really couldn't go wrong with this $799.98 deal on two 24TB WD Red Pro NAS hard drives, leaving you $200 to spend on some of our other Black Friday tech deals instead.
