Review on Seagate Barracuda 500GB ST500DM002 SATA 3.5 Internal Hard Drive - 7200 RPM by Aashit Akkineni ᠌

I have always been a fan of Seagate hard drives. But after a year of owning this model, I can confidently say that I will never buy an HDD of this brand again. Problems began almost from the moment of purchase. For all the time of use, it always slowed down the system very much (it was the main disk). Each opening, even a very small file, led to a strong OS freeze. In the first month after the purchase, the operating system hung for the first time, and the HDD was not detected in the BIOS. Now, after a year of use, it disappears from the BIOS every day. It only helps to completely turn off the power of the PC and turn it on again. Rather, he would have already suffered to throw it out the window with a clear conscience.
