Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the 2TB Seagate hard drive's performance, large storage capacity, ease of use, and competitive price. Many also found installation straightforward and the drive to be quiet. While some experienced issues with the warranty and the lack of included SATA cables and mounting screws, these concerns were less frequently reported than positive feedback.

    Replaced bad drive, this might be bad too

    I bought this to replace a bad drive. I installed it and it worked great for a few months. All of a sudden, my computer crashed and wouldn't boot up. Seemed like it was the same problem that happened to the last drive. Luckily, since the last crash, I've been diligent with backups and had one readily available. The drive also was readable from a external hard drive cage so I was able to get what I needed off it. I reinstalled in my computer and it booted up again. Haven't used it since, but gave me a little scare. Not a fan of seagate right now.

    Bought as gift for grandson. He reviewed this item and it was what he wanted for Christmas. He has already installed it and so far likes it.

    Better than 1 TB, not as big as 3TB

    One of the strengths of the 2TB drive is it is larger than a 1TB drive. One of the weaknesses is that it is not as large as a 3TB drive.

    I've used Seagate drives for years, and have always been happy with them. I have a pair of these running in a RAID 0 array, and the performance is great.

    My only complaint about this drive is really the result of my not understanding that my interface could only handle 3Gb. If you have the right SATA interface (6Gb transfer rate) this drive would probably be great.

    Bought to replace my 500 gb barracuda wich started posting w an error a year ago. Old one ran well even with the error so no problems with buying another. Quiet and with the software easy to move my Os and files over

    I needed to replace my hard drive this fit perfectly. Turns out, that wasn't the solution needed. So I returned it and purchased a new computer.

    Great hard drive. I would buy it again. Seagate is a great company, with a good warranty. Would maybe consider getting one with a 5 year over the 3 year.

    Steam does not charge sales tax so using a credit card has that advantage but if you don't have one or don't want to use one this is a great alternative.

    I bought this drive to replace a western digital 5400rpm drive that kept giving me errors. I expected improved performance based on the 7200rpm speed and other reviews I read. I still had slow performance and ended up rebuilding my computer from scratch because I thought maybe something else was wrong. My OS is now on a solid state drive and the Seagate is a secondary drive. Even with a fan blowing right across it, it still runs hot and I still get a seek error rate warning.

    The RPM speed is too slow for what I was looking for. Large memory capacity howeve, I found that this product was too slow for my computer. Just not pleased with item for what I had paid for it.

    I don't recommend using a disk this size for your operating system. Actually, I would recommend a Solid State Drive for your OS. However, for storage, this is a great solution.
