Seagate Barracuda Pro and IronWolf 12TB hard drives
For those looking to add a lot of storage to a desktop PC, or who want to kit out a NAS drive with high-performance, hard-wearing drives, look no further than Seagate's 12TB Barracuda Pro and IronWolf drives.
I've put hundreds of terabytes of data through these drives over many months and have been more than satisfied by both their performance and reliability.
Highly recommended for anyone who is feeling a storage squeeze.
