Review on Seagate Barracuda 500GB ST500DM002 SATA 3.5 Internal Hard Drive - 7200 RPM by Park Seo Jun

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product, best quality.

However, it had already been creaking for two years of work, during which time there had been no critical jambs behind this disk. It was replaced due to the fact that the attribute of the state of the disk surface reached 54% mechanics up to 74%, the software seems to say that everything is fine, but Windows began to work slowly several times at startup, file system recovery crashed, and it was cured by "Long repair "using the software that was downloaded from the website of the manufacturer. The total amount of time that the device has been in operation continuously is 251 days. I bought a brand new one that is identical to the previous one, and I am crossing my fingers that it will last for at least another two years. In addition, after two years: Both disks are being used as storage, and the system has been operating on solid-state drives for well over a quarter of a year now. The older disk has been in use for 10516 hours, which is equivalent to 438 days of operation, and it is still functioning properly without any issues. The second disk has been in use for 6118 hours without any issues. The disk subsystem is extremely power-sensitive, so I want to recommend that anyone whose disks are getting lost on a monthly basis invest in a standard power supply. In general, a first-rate manufacturer; I was unprepared for the level of quality that was produced, and I wholeheartedly endorse their products.

Pros
  • Nimble, relatively quiet, consumes little
Cons
  • It will hold together from the moment you buy it, which is not to say that it is robust, but it compels you to consider the security of the data and the state of the disk.
