Despite the established rule of Moore's law that these things double in size every two years, the very idea that Western Digital and their larger-scale NAS-focused WD Red Pro series of hard drives has now hit 20TB is still a heck of an achievement. Yet, in line with all this growth in storage, consumers' and businesses' appetite for storage continues to grow too and as big as 20TB of free space sounds, it is surprisingly easy for some to contemplate how they might fill it. Then you have to consider factors such as redundancy to prevent data loss in the event of failure, large-scale servers increasing the operational pressure on storage media, as well as the ability of any hard drive to withstand it all 24x7 and you can see why the WD Red Pro 20TB NAS hard drive has a great deal to live upto. The WD201KFGX 20TB hard drive makes some bold promises in performance and robust design and with a price tag that very home users will be able to stomach, the direction for this drive towards business and enterprise use is understandable. So today, let's review the WD Red Pro 20TB NAS hard drive, discuss how it is possible and ultimately help you decide if it deserves your data.
