    I bought this to add as a data rive for a desktop that I switched the boot drive to an SSD. I have not had a single good experience with Western Digital hard drives; literally every single one I have ever owned has died. I have always had excellent luck with Seagate hard drives. I only use Seagate; I know the quality is good, and that the drive won't fail like the WD's I have had.

    Simple and easy install. Installed directly as GPT instead of MBR(I believe that's what it's called) I actually purchased it in hopes of it being mbr so I could test a program to convert it lol. O well. Only Con is that you lose almost 300gb from the hardware. I have about 2.73Tb available upon install with no information on the other space in computer management and disk allocation. Still would definitely recommend it.

    A decent HD, but is it trustworthy?

    When this HD works, it works. HOWEVER, I made this purchase to replace an almost-identical HD which failed just 2 years into its 5 year warranty period. Seagate was quick to replace it, but it's not surprising they have reduced their warranty down to two years on this product. Always remember to back up.
