    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.

    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.

    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.

    Doesnt come with bracket screws, gotta get a sata data cable separately, and for me, im prettu sure mine is faulty out the box. Plugged it up and pc wont boot. Nothing loose, and boots up fine when i remove it. Im sure the storage is great but in terms of a hard drive not including snandard screws kinda sucks honestly.
