Are these two listings the same drive?

Yes. Both describe the WD Red Plus 8TB WD80EFPX: 8TB, 3.5-inch SATA, CMR, 5640 RPM, 256MB cache, 180TB/year. The only real difference is the seller and the price.

Which is cheaper right now?

The Newegg listing at $457.99 as of November 8, 2026, versus $512.99 at TeciSoft. That is about $55 less for identical hardware.

Is this drive good for a home NAS?

Yes, for a small or mid-sized RAID NAS. It is CMR, rated for 180TB/year and built for always-on use. It is not the fastest choice; 7200 RPM drives finish rebuilds and big transfers sooner.

Should I worry about the WD80EFZZ name in one title?

Confirm the model number with the seller before you order. The description and specs point to WD80EFPX, and the model number is what determines CMR recording and NAS compatibility.

Does it last longer than a desktop drive?

It is rated for 180TB/year and 600,000 load/unload cycles, which is higher than typical desktop drives. Real lifespan still depends on temperature, vibration and RAID rebuilds.

Is the TeciSoft listing worth the extra $55?

Not for the hardware, which is the same. Pay the premium only if you specifically want to buy from TeciSoft or its warranty and return terms matter to you.
