These drives are nearly the same as WD Red NAS drives. White drives need a very minor mod if taken outside of the original shell. Normally these go for $180 on sale. Never seen them as low as $160 yet.

Got mine about an hour ago. Just a heads up to anyone else getting this Easystore deal is that the helium drive makes a very light thumping noise every few seconds but its very very low and stops after a while then starts up a while later. This seems to be normal with this sized drive from WD so I'm not complaining just giving a heads up. Someone on Reddit said it was called Preemptive Wear Leveling Mechanical feature that reduces uneven wear on the drive surface. Overall I'm happy with this drive at that price point.
