Hello everyone, I need a 3.5 inch 12TB hard drive. I need to to be SATA. It needs to fit in my Coolermaster N200 case. I’ve seen like the Seagate Exos OEM drives, but I don’t know if they will work in just a normal system. Thanks everyone!

I got a 12 TB WD Gold (intended for Enterprise Datacenters) and it works fine, although it seems I have some problems related to increasing of S.M.A.R.T attribute 'Unsafe shutdown count' or 'Power off retract count', despite the proper Windows shutdowns (maybe it's a driver related thing, I don't know at the moment).
