Great hard drive by a great company.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great hard drive by a great company. Got two of these due to a sale and have them inside a nicely cooled case. Paid less for the two of these on sale than I would have getting one with the same amount of space.

Good value.
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great value if you're looking for a decently sized HDD. There are faster hard drives, and bigger ones, but if you get he's on sale like I did, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better value to Quality-value ratio.

Big, reliable storage.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My go-to drive for bigger storage needs. The read/write speeds are really quite good for a standard HDD at this price point. It's quiet. No platter noise at all. When I fill this one up with my work files, I'll buy another in a heartbeat.

Good HDD for Storage and HDD farming
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hard drive box is easy to open, came with nothing unnecessarily packed. This is a 5400rpm drive, so it is good for storage as a secondary drive. I am currently using it attached to my NAS to store CHIA farming plots, was able to store 78 plots. Moving files using a USB 3.0 hub was 88MB/S

Good value for the capacity
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a relatively slow SMR (shingled magnetic recording) hard drive but at a large capacity. It works well enough for a data storage, but I would only advise using this as secondary storage and put any files that should be read frequently or quickly on an SSD.

This is a real deal!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for more storage for my music and videos. This hd is selling for the same price as the 4gb that I bought a couple of years ago. It works well with my 1tb SSD Barracuda.

Great Products
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First rate gear. For years our company relied on Seagate drives, with perfect performance. Then we became vendors to Seagate and the appreciation grew stronger: great people, strong ethos, amazing science, and products that keep customers humming year on year.

Work well.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought a pair of these to use in a home server in a RAID configuration. They were easy to install and the system recognized them and I was able to easily set up the mirrored configuration so I have some redundancy in my server. So far so good. Recommended.

Good for the budget
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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 works well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
