If you plan to shuck these, note that some dont work properly without the molex adapter hack. These arent as easy as the WD NESN ones from BB.

^ Can you elaborate? I thought these (at least the 8TB size) had standard SATA Seagate Archive drives in them?

I have several of those running in a raid setup. They seem fine. I did notice that lengthy (several tb) writes get a bit slower, and pausing the write restores the speed. The have a bit more variance in speed than regular internal drives that becomes noticeable in multi drive setup.
