Great drive but a little noisy. If doing much file copying, you will hear it a t work. While not loud, it can be annoying. I normally buy Western Digital drives because they last and are quiet. I decided to give this will a try.
It is fast. I can overlook a little noise for the performance.

It was a good hard drive for increased storage of files. The price of it is very good. It is a very good hard to buy for your desktop. Customers should invest in buying this type of hard drive for their desktop computers.

I bought this as a game installation drive for my new gaming PC. SSD drives are a bit too expensive for the amount of storage I needed for all of the games I play. This drive has worked well for the past 3 months.

Seagate drives are one of the best performing legacy drives available. This 2TB drive is no exception. It performs well and a great value to revive OEM failed hard drive or for a new system buildout.

Bought one for my original build. Mostly just for storing some less hard drive demanding games for more of a bulk storage. Liked it so much I bought another for my other desktop. Has very good speed.

This is a 3.5 inch form factor drive and works really well as a secondary drive or for having multiples set up in a Raid Array on your machine (so long as you have room for it, and a controller). I use this as my gaming drive for my gaming rig.
2TBs of space means a lot of games or other media if you want.
This of course is a SATA style drive but its hard to beat the price with the amount of storage it offers.
I run games off this drive that dont really require a lot. Single player games that dont need to be online for example and it works well.
They offer a 2 year warranty on this as well. Not a bad choice at all if you need a 2nd Sata drive.

Tittle says it all! Great price, and rocket fast shipping! Easy to install and up and running in no time. Seagate internal drives need to be formatted. Go to their website for clear, comprehensive instructions.

If you need solid, reliable storage you can't go wrong with this drive. I have used them for years, and never (knock on wood) had one go bad. Plenty of storage space at an excellent rprice makes this too good to pass up.

I have 4 hard drives & one SSD (boot drive). When cleaning up my drives I wanted to delete the old Windows drive that was on a 3TB disc because sometimes my computer would boot off the 3TB drive and I'd have to correct it in BIOS. Well when taking care of this issue I guess I didn't have my coffee but I wound up deleting Windows on the SSD and I couldn't reinstall Windows because the SSD was a GPT partition so I needed a new drive. I've been using Seagate HD's for for years and they're always reliable. Best Buy had the disk delivered to me early the next day and everything is working fine. Great job by Best Buy and Seagate.

Worked good and was very easy to install for a beginner. Can't vouch on its longevity as I had to return it since my prebuilt pc had some issues, but when I had it the HDD worked great.

Wow, 2 TB for the price of 1. Seagate is the one stop shop for all your disk storage needs. BestBuy is the place to get it. In stock, better than Amazon.

I bought this hard drive after the internal SSD that came with my desktop was mostly filled up. So far, it's been great for storing all of my pictures and videos and I've had no complaints with it! I would recommend looking up a video on how to install it though, it doesn't come with instructions.

This is a very common hard drive used amongst gamers. I have seen it in countless builds and decided to buy it for my own computer. I have a 500gb M2 SSD for my OS and most used programs and this HDD for my games library and large files. It works great, and it fast as far as hard drives go. It had worked great so far, and games load pretty fast. Going with a hard drive like this is great for games because the only thing it impacts is the inital loading time. After that, the game runs just like normal without any difference in speed.

Fast and reliable HDD. I have had it for a few months and it has been working perfectly. Its a great size for a home desktop, and a few of them make for fast and reasonable storage.
