Review on Seagate ST1000DM003 Internal Desktop HDD - High-Quality Hard Drive for Reliable Performance by Li Kai ᠌

Before that, there was a Barracuda 72002022 for 750 gigs. The one with the broken firmware, if anyone knows. So, after flashing, he honestly worked for almost 7 years and died overnight, which was unpleasant, but quite acceptable. I took the indicated model to replace him, I hope for an equally long cooperation. _____________________ A couple of weeks later. _____________________ I bought another exactly the same disk, installed it on another computer. After the benchmark, I was very disappointed. The speed graph is a saw. In total, I counted 10 (TEN!) failures. Two at the very beginning of the disk, almost to zero, the remaining eight lie in the range of 100-150 Mb / s. Here's what HDTune gives out: 197, 154 and 0.3 Mb / s. (Maximum, average, minimum). Ran a few more times. The number of dips on the chart changes every time and their location too. Here are the next values: 191, 1452022 Mb/s. There were five dips here, and the two maximum ones were in the middle of the disc, and not at its beginning, as in the first test. Conclusion: You need to tie with hard drives! Everything that is sold now is a waste of money. The former stability and reliability is gone. If there is such a spread in the characteristics of disks purchased from the same company within one month, then what is there to talk about? . I'll pick up an SSD, although it's a little expensive, but I don't see any other options.
