Thankfully I bought the 3TB version of this drive as a storage drive for misc stuff that's already backed up on externals. It runs like a tortoise and write speeds are just insulting. Shoulda learned to stay away from this company after my Free Agent died years ago and nearly lost me all of my data.

These are great replacement drives. I have replace 4 smaller drives with these and have not had any problems. You cannot go wrong with Seagate drives.

I use these in my NAS, I know they are desktop rated, but my NAS has clocked up 32500 hrs wirhout and bad blocks Seagate just make seriously good hard drives, the only brand for me

This hdd was quick enough but the spinning must have been janky because it caused my case(s) to vibrate and make a lot of noise! I used this hard drive in multiple cases and had the same problem!

This is excellent. It is just what I hope for, and it works extremely well. I have it on a very fast external connector hooked to my Mac Pro, and I use it to backup files when I want to reduce my storage.

Ive had over 5 Seagate drives die. The proof that its a cheaply made drive is proven by the fact that they cut their 3 year guarantee down to a year. Need I say more?

Bought 2x Year 2013. One broke down after exactly two years. The second broke down last week, after about 4.5 years. It was not so that they "hated" that they were going to hang out, for example. through SMART, clicking noise, chkdsk or other. Both of them only two quarters. Never more Seagate.

Purchased 3 of these for additional storage to accompany an M.2 - great value for money, and decent performance thus far.

Not much more to say. It wasn't DOA, and it's been working fine for about a month now. HDs are basically a commodity now, not a huge difference between brands. If you care about your data, RAID your drives and make regular backups.

-Good value ($/GB; -Performance as expected

-A little loud..; like most 7200RPM drives

Its chip and value of money i buy Seagate Barracuda 2TB Desktop SATA Internal Hard Drive and the experience is very cool. - now i have a lots of space. - very easy to install. - after installing Seagate Barracuda 2TB Desktop SATA Internal Hard Drive my desktop running smoothly.
