This is a great drive to use for system boot drive. Seems responsive and quicker than most other 7.2K drives

Fast & quiet

none

Nice and quite, really fast with Windows 8 installed on it.

This is the best Hard Drive that I have bought online. And actually best one anywhere. It gets installed quickly and you don't have to be a pc guru to do it. It has instructions and Windows will pick up the dirve very easily.

Very good 7200 drive that is extremely fast! Avg transfer rate is at 100mb / s It stays 42c in a small mini-ITX chassis. Followed with an acer Vertion X2610G http://www.2shared.com/photo/Lv07lBwY/HDTune_Benchmark_ST500DM002-1B.html Given the prices in the segment so it is too expensive in comparison...

Received within 3 days after placing the order but the item turned out to be defective .. I've sent multiple emails to flipkart CS but they didn't responded back to my email queries .. Then I decided to contact them over the phone.

Seagate Barracuda SATA 500GB HDD haves most reliable and proven perpendicular magnetic recording technology hard disk can be used in any desktop.

This is an OEM product, so you get nothing but the Hard Drive, but then you should know what you're doing. If in doubt - Seven Forums or Tom's Hardware will help you install. The drive is very quiet, and straightforward to set up and partition.

It's quiet; and it works

Nothing I can think of

Have used Seagate/Maxtor for 2 decades without any problems so I stick with this make. This disk is one from the latest Seagate range and represents good cash/bytes value. Post was quick and the disc was well packaged in a foam lined box with larger outer box.

My experience with this hard drive is unique. I'm using it with a hard-disk audio recording system... the Alesis HD24. Alesis recently began shipping SATA caddys and this is the first I've used them... this drive is supported and has so far worked to expectation.

This is most definately a good product. I have it mated to an Asus board with an AMD phenom Quad core 3400 processor. This drive takes advantage of that and the boot times and program load times are very fast. Would certainly recommend.
