They are the same. Source: I have shucked both.
Hold the line, Best Buy had 18TB WD drives during Black Friday / Cyber Monday last year for $200
Yeah, and I don't think the 20TB will ever be the sweet spot deal. Historically it was 8TB, then 14TB, and recently 18TB. The 10TB, 12TB, 16TB were always higher cost per TB. I'm thinking in 2-3 years the best $/TB will be the 22TB or 24TB size. But obviously I can be wrong about this. The black friday deal will set the new baseline for which capacity will be the sweet spot. Black Friday is only a month away so it's not a long wait.
Right now the cost/TB is:
20TB @ $266 = $13.30/TB <-- This deal.
18TB @ $200 = $11.11/TB <-- The 18TB has gone to $200 multiple times, so if you can wait you can get it at that price.

Are these still shuckable?

Also, still red drives inside?

It's a good deal, but I don't recall ever seeing them sold at the actual list price.

Can anyone answer if this drive would be fast enough for network storage, directly connected to a Linksys Mesh Network Router?

20TB is more than enough for my needs. This would be great for a media server😀

If you are looking to build a NAS, often times we are limited by the NAS available drives, therefore the higher the capacity the better drives they are assuming everything is equal. There's a lack of space, also if you go with buying smaller capacity with the hope of buying larger drives later when prices come down, fuggedabouit! Except for crazy used prices during shortage, I never found selling used prices to be worth the extra work, I'd rather just buy the capacity I want/need to begin with

Till you put everything on one drive, and it fails... I run two 10tb (movies on one and TV shows on the other), then an 18tb as a master backup.

$34 more at Bestbuy for an Easystore which is a better quality drive than this.

So Easystore drive is better than Element drive? I thought they are the same inside

Almost certainly still shuckable. Drives inside have not been Red drives in years, they are white label non series drives, but functionally they are identical to Reds.
