## Questions & Answers

**Q: why is the back of the drive different than other hard drives? I can hot connect it nowhere.**
A: Different in what way? I've had no issues connecting it to anything i'd connect any SATA HDD to. It's a thicker drive, but the connections themselves are not any different.

**Q: Are these hot swappable?  Wondering if I would need to power down my Synology box to install.**
A: I think that has to do with the box and not the drive.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Valid 5 year warranty
*by N***S on February 17, 2021*

I did a bunch of research and knew the drive I wanted was the Seagate ST12000NM001G, my only concern was purchasing and getting an OEM version without the 5 year warranty. Based on other reviews of drives purchased from the vendor ServerPartDeals, I took a gamble and made the purchase.Not only did I get a pristine 12TB drive with a valid 5 year warranty, but I got it fast and for a great price. I'll definitely be ordering more of these drives, but only from ServerPartDeals!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great drives to upgrade my NAS
*by D***J on September 8, 2024*

My 1817 diskstation was running low on space so I upgraded the drives to these. A week later after replacing my old drives, I finally got to 62tb. These drives are great.

### ⭐ dead on arrival
*by T***2 on April 30, 2022*

Drive caused an A2 message on my ROG Asus board, vintage 2020. Would not boot with drive connected. Then tested to make sure inbn a second pc, a 2021 high end Dell that is working perfect. The Dell also would not boot with it connected.Drive also made a weird seeking noise initially.Probably got damaged in shipping , buncoed around, etc. Not willing to risk it twice,. Got a Seagate Iron Wolf Pro at microcenter which worked fine on first try.
