NOT RETAIL! OEM disc

The description says nothing about OEM discs. TechnoDealsUSA sells OEM hard drives that cannot be guaranteed by Seagate!

Pros
  • Dream come true
Cons
  • Damaged

Fast but noisy drive

This drive works well but is very noisy. Don't use it if the noise level is important to you. I use it on my Synology NAS with no problems. Can't comment on durability at the moment but will update my experience if that fails.

Pros
  • Rugged construction
Cons
  • Compatibility

Defective product from Thailand

Save time, frustration, hassle and IT costs. This is a HORRIBLE product, a cheap dented metal case straight out of the box. There were 2 brand new discs. Open them up to load them into a brand new Drobo, they are poor, imprecisely made in Thailand to low quality standards, the drive would not load the first 8 times. On the 9th attempt, the disk finally booted up properly. Terrible product. I will never buy a Seagate again. Their quality has been outsourced along with production. Your products…

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Fragile

Quickly. Calm. Installs in seconds.

This was the best decision (in terms of storage) I've made in a long time. I pulled out my brimming 5TB and plugged this guy in, booted up, went into device manager, partitioned and formatted and started transferring data from my backups in less than 5 minutes. We spent one of those minutes unhooking and extending my turret to gain access to the rear of the hull and the other taking it back. Fast fast fast. 190 Mbps from an external 10 TB is sustainable. The noise was more of a pleasant noise…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

I think something has changed.

Complaints not about the function of the drive but about the attachment points. why will it change? Every disc I bought had 3 holes on each of the long sides and then 2 on the bottom on each side. this disc has two holes on the long sides and the missing attachment point is the middle one. The holes on the bottom have been swapped and will not work with the interfering stock brackets, see below. Keep this in mind when ordering mounting brackets, if required. I bought two mounts, for two of…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
