Storytime:
Got this in 2010 to download TV shows and movies. However it is too small at 2 TB compared to my other drives and my computer case is running out of empty drive bays.
Model: WD20EARS
Rotational Speed: 5400 RPM
SATA Interface: SATA 3.0
Windows Capacity: 1.81 TB
Mac Capacity: 2 TB
Known Issues:
Lags between transferring tiny little 1 megabyte files. Issue was discovered in 2016 and the drive has been shelved away and offline. It was accessed +10 since 2016 to store PS3 games. Doesn't have this issue anymore since 2021. I'd play it safe and not store any important data, or at least back it up elsewhere if you do.
Suitability:
Non-critical data (eg, steam game library)
Part of a redundant home NAS or Backblaze subscription drive
