Review on (Old Model) Seagate 500GB Desktop HDD Sata 6Gb/s 16MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive (ST500DM002) - Reliable Data Storage Solution by Aquarium Lanter

I purchased this Seagate Desktop Hard Drive 3TB SATA 6Gbps 64MB Cache 3.5" Internal Idle Drive (ST3000DM001) in 2014 and installed it in my mid 2010 iMac Installed. . It was working fine until I noticed in 2018 that the iMac wasn't booting up properly and programs were sluggish. I thought that the problem lies in the outdated hardware in which the new software does not work properly. But in the end it stopped loading. Tried various diagnostic programs to no avail. I bought a replacement iMac and a few months later, tired of my old iMac sitting dead on my desk, I replaced the HD and bought a thermal kit from OWC. After installing the OS (High Sierra) and restoring some user documents from an old mid-2010 iMac backup, it works great. It's not nice that the Seagate Barracuda didn't last longer.
