Is this a hybrid drive (SSHD) or a default drive (HHD)?

No, I wish there was a 2gb Hybrid out there but at this point. I haven't seen any.

As far as I know it is a default SATA drive with an excellent performance for low budgeted people. At least, it really shines on my PS4 :P

It's not a SSHD or SSD. It's just a standard, 2TB HDD (but it works great)! I use it in my PS4. My friend who bought a hybrid 1TB HDD says he wishes he now got this one because mine loads up just a TAD bit slower than his and the gaming load times that he saves time on are barely felt with his SSHD. ;-)

This enclosure is SATA. Your drive should also be SATA. If you are confused pull the model number off of the drive and look it up. The model should start with something like ST3500#####

I would recommend using one on Thecus's compatibility list: http://www.thecus.com/download/compatibility/hdd/N4520SERIES_N2800_N4800_N4800Eco_N5550_N4510U_N7510_HDD_SSD_list.pdf Also consider that Enterprise rated drives will last longer and potentially perform a bit faster, but might not be worth the price bump for just backups.

Model number in the admin interface indicates mine are "Seagate Barracuda 4 TB Internal hard drive Serial ATA-600 3.5" Desktop HDD"

I don't know your Poweredge, but it looks like your existing drive is a SATA drive, so I would have thought it would be OK. Whatever OS and drive controller you are using would be of more concern. Might be worth emailing WD support asking them.

I have a 1TB drive in it currently hosting my VMware ESXi Server. And it has I believe 3 or 4 sata ports on the mother board if I remember correctly. Because I have an sata dvd drive and two hdds in it currently with one other sata port available if I remember correctly.

I'm honestly not sure, as I immediately formatted the drive when I got it. Sorry!

It should work perfectly, though I haven't tested it with this specific drive

7200 rpm drives get SATA III while 5400 drives get SATA II. No, key code for automatic upgrade.

The Red drive is for a NAS. But it will work for you. It is backwards comparable.

That depends on the model you get. Some model editions have the hybrid with the SSD cache. For the models with the SSD, it is a hybrid and not two separate drives.

I believe the WH16NS40 is just the bare drive, and the BH16NS40 is the retail model including software.

Sorry I don't have an answer for you, the drive is for a Drobo Raid and it's not something that concerned me when I made the purchase. It was however physically an exact match to the Older drive it replaced, I hope that helps.

No, this is SATA; IDE is defunct. You can use that old drive as a paper weight. Also get a Solid State Drive and enjoy about 10x improvement in hard drive speed. SSDs are worth every penny.

This particular one is a hard drive. There are others that offer solid state/hybrid.

I'm sure it's internals use a proprietary drive but is a sealed unit and there isn't a lot of info out there on swapping out drives. There are other brands & models that are designed with removable cages that may be better suited
