    Really not bad for the price. The speeds weren't mind blowingly fast but that's normal for a HDD. We were able to move 4TB of data over in about 2-4 hours.

    It’s a desktop hard drive. It works as intended, though it’s much faster than I had anticipated. Best used as a secondary drive for storing large files like video games.

    One of the best options for bulk storage at the price. If you have drive docks, you can swap these out. Great for backups.

    I had to install Windows 7-64bit using UEFI/EFI rather than legacy support in order to format drives to full 8gb partition. After that it works fine and now have a larger data and backup drive in my PC.

    I have no issues with the Seagate Barracuda 8TB. They are solid and works as intended. I used to purchase Western Digital exclusively but they were not transparent about the specs of their hard drives. The Seagate is good and reliable.

    Excellent so far, but I am partial to Seagate as their drives have yet to let me down, spins right up, have it currently working inside of a UnRaid server.

    Works fine so far, little bit of noise but common for a larger drive. Easy as pie to install as always. Also just for note in case anyone is new to HDD installs in PCs, you will need the SATA cable still unless your PC already has a spare.

    As expected of an HDD it's speed isn't great but for my use case as bulk game storage it gets the job done
