Hard drive failed within 6 months
I have 4 of them spinning 24/7 in my server in RAID 10 since November last year and they have been rock solid. I also have 4 * 2TB Seagate drive and same thing, no problems. Seagate released these drives before they released their NAS compatible drives in order to compete with WD Red drives but...

Replaced a failing 1TB with this 2TB hard drive and cloned it using Acronis. The process was almost seamless and this drive at a great price has performed much better than the old one. I would not hesitate to buy another.

The Seagate Barracuda 2TB SATA3 HDD is currently one of the most popular disks among PC manufacturers; we've seen a lot of it in PCs submitted for our group tests, so we've welcomed the opportunity to put it through its paces.
This is a very good product. The drive installed in minutes and was functioning after an easy formatting exercise with disk utility. It's fast and has exceptional capacity at a great price. Highly recommend this product.
