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.

    Very easy replacement for the failed Seagate 1 TB hard drive original to my desktop computer. Once installed, it was easy to load Windows onto my computer from my Windows 10 disk. The hardest part was accessing two of the four mounting screws for the hard drive. I needed slightly longer fingers, but a small needle nose pliers worked just fine.

    Dependable hardrive for backups. Getting superfast speed which an unexpected boon for a mechanical drive. I'm really pleased with this purchase. Can't go wrong for the price.

    Subpar

    With lots of transfers of games and deleting games this drive lasted about 12 months. I would not recommend it, budget friendly for sure but out of all of them I have purchased over the years for backup game storage only 2 of them were reliable. I would stick with WD for external/internal backup or slower gaming drives. I have had a WD black HDD for 5 years and NVME for 3 and have had no issues.

    My Barracuda 2TB Internal SATA Hard Drive was delivered promptly and works well. It was very reasonably priced. This is not the first item that I have ordered from Best Buy and it won't be the last.

    Was very easy to install and worked like a charm (once I remembered it had to be initialized before the computer would read it!). Thinking of maybe adding another!

    Easy to install. Fast. And sleek. If you’re in the need of a hard drive but don’t want to break the bank on an expensive ssd or Nvme? This is the hard drive you need

    Can't go wrong with Seagate. Been using their hard drives for years with no problems and this one is right on par. Works great and is a recommended buy to anyone.

    Installed this card in a new building just for photos, movies and music storage. It's quiet and seagates have always been reliable for me. No complaints so far

    its a HD, serves its purpose.. slow though, id go double SSD if they werent so expensive, but for my budget PC build I went with 1tb Crucial P1 SSD, and this 2TB Barracuda, Use it mainly to store a lot of music/movie files, be aware though if you are used to SSD speeds, this will be annoyingly slow.

    Great value for what you get the write speeds are not that great but what do you expect for 2tb it’s great for storing whatever you need I wouldn’t recommend it if you are a gamer though !

    Great value for price. One of the most popular selections for an extra storage drive. Speeds are nothing to write home about but is still competent in today’s tech world.
