Hi, not sure what sort of performance you will get out of that WD drive. I managed to saturate the GbE using a barracuda 2TB drive, with read and write speeds holding stable in the ~90 MB/s region. I wouldn't expect that WD drive to perform quite as well, but then again you should ask yourself if you really need that sort of performance from your NAS on a daily basis. Perhaps the ~65-75MB/s transfer speeds (thats what I get from my regular WB 2.5" drive) will be enough for you and your use-case.
