    I purchased this hard drive because I needed a larger back up drive for various files to save room on my computer and allow me to use the files on other computers we have. So far it has functioned as all of our other Seagate Barracuda hard drives have. Out of more than 20 purchased over the past several years we have only had 2 give us any issues and one of them was a 2.5" Laptop hard drive. So.. Performance and serviceability have been outstanding. We will be buying more as we need them!

    Genuinely is a good buy. There isn't really much to stay. The only is that you have to use a third party program to get the full 7. whatever gigs. Other than that great buy if you have a lot of pictures of videos you wanna store on your PC.

    Seagate Barracuda HDD. 8TB size gives you lots of space. Hard Disks are great for backing up or archiving data long term. At the same time good for daily use as well. The one thing you may notice, if you have used HDD for years, is the lighter weight. HDD use to be heavier and hold less data.

    A little slow, but a great drive for the money!

    The title says it all. With a spindle speed of only 5400 RPM, it's a bit slower than a 7200 RPM drive, but the price makes up for it! A great drive to use for backups or as part of a cheap home RAID array!
