Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Barracuda 2TB Internal Hard Drive's large storage capacity, speed, and affordability. Many appreciate its ease of installation and setup. While some users noted the drive produces some noise and doesn't include a SATA cable, the positive feedback on performance and value outweighs these minor drawbacks.

    I needed to review my security video footage only to discover the hard drive crashed. I contacted the company and they recommended this drive as the modern substitute. Worked perfectly.

    Basic hard drive for pictures and personal files, you can download all your games on it if you want but an name SSD is recommended for faster start ups and smoother updates.

    Night Owl replacement?

    It’s a little early to review this item as I am using it, very nicely, in a security system. If it continues to work well in a year I’ll rate it a full five stars. So far it works extremely well in my Night Owl system. The price was at the right spot and the performance excels expectations so far.

    You can't beat the price to performance ratio

    You really can't beat the price to performance ratio of this drive. It gives you 2 TB of storage. It's a spinning drive, so it won't be as fast as a solid state drive, but it is fast enough for storage of files.

    Good and inexpensive 2TB HDD at 7200 RPM

    I wanted to find a decent capacity drive to store some files on my PC that I don't want to keep on my boot drive, but that I frequently need to access. SSDs above 1TB are still way too expensive, and this seems to be one of the better HDD choices with good read/write speeds at a very reasonable price.

    Great HDD to store your data and media files. However, I would not recommend using HDD anymore for the latest game title. Old or non-demanding games can be stored here but newest ones should be using SSD.

    This pairs well with the Xbox Series X, which has abysmal storage at 1 TB. Its not as good as the internal storage SSD, but its half the price and twice the storage.

    My Revo system stopped recording. I replaced its hard drive, which was this exact one. Best Buy had and it was priced nicely. I’m not too tech but I got it done. Saved a huge chunk of change. Thanks Best Buy.

    SATA is still an affordable storage option, Best Buy had this in stock which made my upgrade so much faster. Faster in the sense I had it in hand to use the same day.

    The Seagate Compute drive has really fast access for a spinning disk drive. The 256MB of cache really shows on accessing smaller files and transfers. Getting this much storage for under $60.00 is a steal.

    These are hands-down the best bare hard drive on the market. I've owned several other brands and the Seagate Barricuda is the ONLY one to have never failed. I will go out of my way to find and buy these drives.
