Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the 16TB version of Seagate's top-end Exos (latest X18) series drive Model ST16000NMZ00J and have been using it for a few days now. The product was delivered in an unmarked cardboard box (OEM-style) with the drive inside sealed in an anti-static wrapper bag. The SMART data internal to the drive showed that it was brand new, and the Seagate warranty verification website (which does not work from behind a firewall) showed that it has a full warranty of 5 years (based on my drive's serial number). The performance matches the Seagate product manuals: ~270MiB/s for read and write (I have it in a backup server, so the I/O is mostly sequential). For a 7200rpm it is not too noisy. It is sitting in an open caddy on a desk and runs at 40-42 deg C internal temp when active (without any cooling/fan, at ambient ~72 deg F). I am fully satisfied with the purchase, and the product (so far).

Its an enterprise class drive. I havent had any issues and I don't anticipate any for a very long time. Had a pair shipped to me, solid packaging and they both are working in a RAID set up. No issues, reasonably fast.

Bought 3 of these to put in a ZFS1 TrueNas setup about a month ago. Reasonable price for these, but these are actual RETAIL drives that give you the full 5 years of warranty directly from Seagate; you can buy the same one from Amazon for cheaper but those are OEM drives that are warrantied thru some 3rd party seller, which is not worth it in my book. These are running at warmish temps in my cramped box, but running nice and fast. Constant write speeds that max out my networks 1GB connection; and my Plex server feeds these to my networked Nvidia Shields even at uncompressed 4k video just fine. Overall, solid drives, and unfortunately time will tell if these have issues and are reliable, but thanks to them being Retail drives with 5yr warranties, I dont feel like I'm risking much!

Works perfect and the best price i cold fine as a video editor I needed storage space fast and best buy had the right price and the right product

Incredible hard drives for the price; I bought them on sale, and they work as described. They do come with a five-year warranty.

Good price, 5years warranty and good deal. Cheaper if you count how much you pay per TB

No issues at all. It was exactly what I needed. Quiet fast and efficient.

Faster than i expected no issues, might go bigger but the 20gig was out

Great memory disk value for enterprise quality HDD.

All these months later still going strong. I used it to backup everything.

Tons of space, Easy to install, Runs well, no issues as of yet.

I'm giving it 4 stars because it's not packaged in original box. I checked with seagate and it does have the 5 year warranty.

Junk, no heavy usage. only use about 4TB and in less than 4 months it is basically dead. One 18mb file takes 20 mins to reads....just 20 minutes of clicking and nothings... finally crashing.
