The speed of the disk is like that of other inexpensive disks. The reliability of the disk is not yet known, but I do not advise assigning great opportunities to this disk, especially if they have already deceived with the cache, then this deception may not be the last and may affect the durability of the disk. I always make backups and I advise you. in general, I put one star for deceit, because it’s not very pleasant when you are deceived into a tihar as a sucker and you will find out about…

Purchase Date: December 4, 2022 Date of complete failure July 1, 2022. In my purely subjective opinion, the first place in HDD operation is its reliability. Unfortunately, this model does not differ in this quality.

It just didn't work out of the box. It spins up, makes two loud clicks and stops the discs. That's all, the computer does not see it. Moreover, by the packaging you can’t say that it was dropped or somehow mechanically affected. I got it sealed, even without fingerprints (this is perfectly visible on hard drives) and contacts without traces of connection. In general, Seagate has completely stopped liking me for about 5 years now. But this CD was bought for work without consulting me, and added…

When I read some negative reviews about Seagate products, I am perplexed. It just so happened that I chose this manufacturer 10 years ago, and rarely buy the rest, especially for myself. I have about three of these HDD models alone, now when I write this review, I have the opportunity to test two absolutely identical models at once using CrystalMark, but one with an MBR partition table, and the second GUID (with MBR the one that is slower). But the most important thing is that during the entire

- The hard drive is really silent. You can't hear it, you can't feel vibrations from it. It's like it doesn't work at all. - Fast enough not to worry about anything. All games and programs load quickly, no need for an SSD (Exception: Operating system). - Number of inclusions: 10210, Total operating time: 61535 hours. This is just over 7 years of continuous operation. And only after that CrystalDiskInfo issued the status "Alarm!" due to unstable sectors and uncorrectable sector errors. This is…

Very good model. Someone wrote a negative review above that allegedly the screw died after 2 years, so this model is 1 more year in total. Brad do not write.

Model from 27 "iMac. There were no prerequisites for failure, performance just dropped sharply, and on reboot it went into eternal reading. Miraculously, after several hours in the running state, it decided and allowed to slowly download data that was not included in the Time Capsule Backup. With Seagate Totally unlucky, about a dozen screws died in about 15 years. I took a black WD as a replacement.

I took this disc because it was cheap and there were no complaints at first. But then, after a year of use, it began to make noise. Then the daily blue screens started. Because of which the Windows flew several times. I found bad sectors only after checking through the command line. And programs like CrystalDiskInfo said that everything was ok. Here's my advice to you, don't be sloppy and buy yourself a blue VD. And then the nerve cells are not restored!

I don't know how long it will live. Vibrations from it are felt already on the entire body of the system unit. At first I thought that the fans in the case give such a vibration, and after turning them off I was unpleasantly surprised.

for a year it worked well almost all the time 24/7, but as soon as the warranty ended and it started, it turns off, it’s not visible at all when loading the company, but if it works on the computer, it’s cruel to have to wait 5-10 minutes until the application opens, whether it’s spider solitaire or some kind of browser sad of course I thought to hold out longer . before that, there was a hard Samsung for 5 years now and at least something . ps if the question arises, is the system slowing…

With its pros: Warm (not hot), quiet, Seagate quality, SATA III, very good hard drive. Its cons: It is difficult to attribute to shortcomings, but sometimes squeaks. I can not understand the nature of this squeak, but so far everything is fine.

The main thing is that there should be good ventilation in the case, so that the temperature of the disk does not exceed 35 degrees (like mine, it rarely rises to 35, mostly 30). Probably, I was lucky with a particular instance, before that many disks failed for various reasons, they were all from different manufacturers. Has some pros: Has been working stably for 2 years now. Doesn't make noise. Has some cons: Of course, it's time to switch to SSD drives, but their price does not yet allow…

I will not do any complex analyzes, because I do not know this topic in the best way. You can give it a three for fragility, but this is an HDD, and most disks have such problems. While he lives, and you can use it normally (except for games). For more than 2 years, after all, with power outages, and almost constant download / distribution of files. In crystal disk info - state - good, number of inclusions - 1734 times, total operating time - 3877 hours

for me this summer is the summer of the death of Seagate Literally a month before, ST3000DM001 also died, which generally worked for 1.5 years All in all, I would never buy another Seagate. Fortunately, my system is based on Hitachi, which is 8 (!) years old and is in constant work, 46 thousand hours caught up and this Seagate did not even pass the mark of 15 thousand.

There was an opportunity to choose from 4 copies. 2- China, 2- Thailand. One China had a noticeable high-frequency noise, Thailand all had a low-frequency rumble, and only one China did not make any noise. In appearance, it differed only from all in that the SATA connector was manufactured by FCI, others were foxconn and seem to be TE. Pros below: Fast, thin, not hot, single pancake. The firmware goes with a bang. And the price is cheaper than similar other manufacturers at the time of…

It worked for a year, then Windows began to ignore it, then clusters began to fly. Those. I would say that the model is not reliable. Whoever writes that he is quiet, probably did not see the quiet ones, clicking all the way. With a long idle time, it starts up slowly, freezes (yes, it just hangs there). Well, if someone works and does not break, how will the file storage come down.

I didn’t expect that it could work for so long, I counted on it for a year and the bads would fly, I checked everything perfectly, you won’t regret it, although the price has become much higher, I took it for 2100

SEAGATE DO NOT TAKE! With its pros: There were no benefits to the job. Bought in January 2022 in Hong Kong. Serial number: Z1D2T24H. I took it based on the total volume and rotation speed indicated as 7200. Not noisy. Has some cons: The total volume in the system without cheating is 931GB - no questions, normal; The rotation speed of 7200rpm was not confirmed by any program like "Disk info"; MOST IMPORTANTLY, after 2 (two) months a bunch of unstable sectors appeared and the speed of work (it…

I put the disk in a low-budget MySQL server. If with the old Samsung HD503HI the system often choked due to a lack of disk performance, now the disk indicator is almost not lit. The peak speed of INSERTs doubled with the same settings and increased a little more after increasing innodb_write_io_threads. The disk in the absence of accesses lives its own life, but the access indicator does not light up. I wouldn't be surprised if it sorts the sectors by frequency.

Scanning in MHDD gave the following results: Blocks < 3ms = 7640875, Blocks < 10ms = 19272, Blocks < 50ms = 105, Blocks < 150ms = 632, the distribution trend of < 150ms blocks was in the first half of the disk, I do not exclude that this was caused by the hostility of the MHDD program to a high density of 1tb/plate, because the utility was written when such algorithms did not exist in nature. Smart monitoring in real time displays a complete picture of the state of the drive, while drives from…
