    This disk is 7200RPM performance when reading, but CRAZY SLOW when writing. It doesn't tell you that in the specs, but it uses 'Shingle' design that makes doing lots of writing super-extra slow. Not usable for write-heavy work.

    These drives had become corrupted after less then 2 months of use. I would not recommend this company as it seems they do not care about quality

    Product broke after one use, called tech support and they said I had to pay $75 for repair (FYI I bought it 6 months prior). Horrible product, not buying from this company again.

    The first HD i purchased was DOA. After going through a lot of hoops for this with customer service they finally sent a replacement. The hard drive is now dead in my PC with it not even lasting a year. I would purchase a different HD.

    Received a dead drive, some files were moved onto it before it promptly stopped working, so there go those files. Can’t return it as I was only able to finally put it in the day after my final return date.

    One word, SMR. This drive is horrible. It would literally stop while copying files to it. Returned it ASAP.
