Solution USAFRet Oct 21, 2017 chanwei21 : Hi, which one should I pick? WD 10TB Red or Seagate 10TB Iron wolf? Flip a coin. I have 4 x 4TB Ironwolf. The only reason I got the Ironwolf vs the WD Red is because the Ironwolf was slightly cheaper at the time. If the Red's had been cheaper, I'd be using those.
