It's not secret that covid stop production of all thing. Once of those things are the hardware for computers. Seagate is a good brand that I trust for years due to it's durability based on my experience. I can't say the same for others, but I had no issue. I took advantage of the sale and installed it on my computer ASAP since it's prebuilt that came with 500GB SSD. Currently using this 8TB as a secondary, to install video games, project files for Unreal Engine, Unity, or coding files from Microsoft Visual Studio. There is a reason on my title say Purchase during Covid Pandemic. Apparently there is 30% defect among Seagate products and where I work, IT department confirmed Seagate Exos are among that 30% defects. I did mentioned that I have the Barracuda from Seagate but from his research I should be fine. Hopefully! Seagate factories have been shut for god knows how long due to covid, so imagine rushing and meeting the supply due to the demand. Fingers crossed!

Is perfect and easy to install, the best for every pc

Pretty good for a standard storage for gaming. I'd recommend getting an extended storage along with it.

Works well. No complaints. Just make sure you have the right cables and installation is a breeze.

Its reliable performance and high storage density make it a solid choice for users requiring significant storage space. The sleek design and compatibility with various devices enhance its versatility, making it a valuable addition to any setup. Overall, a dependable solution for those seeking substantial storage without compromising on performance.

Bought this to install into our home security system for 24/7 recording. Works perfectly and the value was on point. Will purchase another in the future to allow our cameras to store over a month's worth of video footage.

Bought two of these to complete a RAID-1 homebuilt OpenMediaVault low-power NAS. At idle with both drives the system uses only about 20 watts. Spinning noise is very quiet. Seek noise is a bit low/chunky. Some will depend on how much case you use. But it's not super obtrusive by any means. Performance is more than enough to outrun the LAN. Overall great price per unit storage. We'll have to see how they fare with time.

Excellent Data storage for my computer system. Has great room, excellent quiteness, and is super fast

Bought this for my Movie Server. Easy install, just snapped it into place and connected the cables. On Windows 10, 64 bit, I did have to format the drive before it showed up, but followed the procedure on the Seagate website, did the 'quick' format and it took just a couple seconds. Very quiet, don't hear it running at all. It is only 5400 rpm, vs 7200 for the faster ones, but it's fast enough to feed movies thru my home network. Only negative is that it didn't come with a user manual, but the Seagate website had info on installing/formatting.

Normally, I buy Western Digital, so I was skeptical when I bought this. I was wrong. This is a great hard drive and well worth the money. I used this to replace other hard drives and consolidate them into one drive. I recommend this for adding to a desktop, whether for gaming or non-gaming use.

Extremely easy installation and configuration right out of the box. Great bargain and service at the store for pickup was outstanding. Leaving as one jumbo driv,e but also know it can be configured in partitions.

Upgraded our 4 bay NAS to something a little larger. Needed to replace the 9 year old drives that were failing. These were easy to install and the performance for the money was great. Waiting for them to go on sale again to purchase 3 more. Would recommend these to anyone needing a drive for extra storage.

A pretty fast, reliable, and high capacity. A great price per terrabyte, would buy again if i need more space

Seagate always a good name for HD and the Barracuda is a nice drive, plenty of space, speed and good value

Very easy to install. Bought the drive 2 weeks ago and no errors and slow down. I mostly use the hard drive for storage.

Lots of storage and runs games fast. I tend to use 1TB a month
