Terrible product, not happy with the purchase!

The Lenovo G500 laptop came in for repair with a complaint: it slows down Windows 8. After installing Windows 7, the brakes remained. When checking the Victoria test, 214 errors and 2563 warnings were found on the hard disk with an access time of 200-2500ms, at the beginning and in the middle of the disk. At 48.2%, the test stopped, because. further went solid unreadable sectors. After about 60% the disc is read normally. I strongly do not recommend buying this hard drive and laptops in which…

Pros
  • Volume 1 terabyte
Cons
  • Unreliable. Sectors with low access speed appear.

I don't know why you're all so up in arms about this hard drive. Although, of course, my experience of using it is only a few weeks, but I did not find any noise and slowness. I got it at work for free as part of an external hard drive Seagate Plus Portable Drive. Since I already have a similar device and it is enough for me, I decided to use it for my home server as a system disk and a disk for Hyper-V virtual machines. Later, I think, I will transfer some of the virtual machines to another…

Pros
  • * Got it for free. * Quiet.
Cons
  • Haven't revealed yet.

Absolutely useless, bad purchase, sorry to anyone who bought it.

They brought the device with a standard "diagnosis" - Windows does not start. Inside was this disk model. Bottom line: the disk area that stores the main boot kernel of the system is damaged. The laptop starts up, the system does not boot, the disk works, after five minutes it is impossible to touch it - it is very hot. Winda does not want to recover on any pretext, neither the recovery does not help, nor other third-party methods.

Pros
  • Is that the volume and partly the speed of data transfer.
Cons
  • After a year of work as part of a Samsung NP550 laptop, the following problems were identified: a large number of reassigned sectors and sectors with an indeterminate status, a large number of read and synchronization errors with the laptop chipset. The average temperature of the disk during operation is more than 55 degrees, the entire laptop heats up wildly from it.

Nightmarish quality and complete inconsistency with the description.

I stood in the Asus N551VW laptop, immediately took it off, put the SSD in the laptop, and used it as an external hard drive. I put it in the box, it worked, it worked, after 3 months when connected, it began to squeak and not be detected . Before that, there was a 320GB HDD from another company in the box for 3 years, and there were no problems, it is still alive and serves perfectly in another laptop

Pros
  • Large volume
Cons
  • He ordered to live long after 3 months.

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

I have been using two pieces at once since 2022, they were bought as part of an expensive and high-quality gaming laptop ASUS ROG G750JH. Three years ago I transferred the OS to an SSD, because loading Windows from the HDD is still slow. This year I transferred them to a large and quiet system unit, now I'm going to buy a pair of 2.5" instead of the buzzing NAS 3.5". Now, for the most part, they just spin idle, after all, 6 years for any HDD is a long time and it’s time for them to be replaced…

Pros
  • - Quiet, the heads do not crack, in a closed case only a slight rustle of motors is heard, as if a fan is spinning, which is not at all like the annoying hum of 3.5" drives (I have a good case with insulation, rubber bands and heavy baskets). - Cold, do not heat up above 35 degrees under load (with ventilation), idle 28. - Reliability. Operating time 15-17 thousand hours (this is an average of 7 hours a day for 6 years in a row). I don’t know, there are a lot of negative reviews here, apparently mostly those who are unlucky complain. Pah-pah-pah, I haven’t had a single failure for many years inside the cramped and hot case of a gaming laptop - and these are games, video encoding and a lot of terabytes of data copied back and forth in tens of gigabytes a day (audio and video editing, very convenient render source files from one HDD to the second). Normally hold torrents. Once I dropped a laptop in a bag on the pavement, fortunately with an edge, otherwise neither the disks nor the laptop would have survived. There were no errors after that.
Cons
  • - It's pointless to use with Windows 10 as a system disk, 10 does too many operations for ANY HDD. However, this is obvious and not even a minus, it's just that initially the laptop was sold with two of these HDDs. - The speed is low. They are good for storage and linear recording, but with active work you have to wait . wait . wait.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I came across such a model in an asus x550l laptop. The system boots in 6 - 8 seconds. The disk is very fast, sometimes you can hear the head moving, they say ating the BIOS on my laptop model solves this problem, but so far I’m not doing anything, because it doesn’t interfere. They brought to work exactly the same laptop with exactly the same disk, and there really is a problem there, the system boots for 2 minutes, after loading the disk access is 100%, it’s not clear what it does, mhdd did…

Pros
  • Quiet, fast
Cons
  • rustles

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

I bought a dell 7520 laptop in 2022, to this day I did not know any problems (I had to replace the cooler, but I bought more RAM). The hard drive worked all this time for 5+. The laptop constantly overheated beyond all norms during games, however, the drive did not disappoint. Now I'm thinking of changing it. I do not want to worry about the information, although it would be possible to reanimate the disk through software.

Pros
  • Vitality, performance.
Cons
  • heats up a lot, most likely due to the laptop device.

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

Shocked by the rating and reviews of this hard drive. I don’t really like Seagate for the 2 terabyte that lived only 3 months, but this one showed itself well, and I myself dropped the last one during work, albeit from a small height. It seemed reliable to me, I wanted to buy the same one. It was installed inside an external one (silicon power armor a30 1tb white) purchased at the end of October 2022 and still works fine (5 years old!), I hope it stays that way, but just in case I will make…

Pros
  • Great disc, never let me down (tfu-tfu-tfu). Everything suits me.
Cons
  • Didn't notice any.

On my dell inspiron 3537 there was some kind of hard drive (I don’t know which company), one day the OS on my laptop stupidly stopped running from it under warranty, the laptop was replaced with this model (the fact is that I took it a week before the warranty expired, but they didn’t give any guarantees for the new railway) the laptop worked cheerfully and joyfully for a week and a half, and suddenly the same problem, the OS does not start, and now I’m sitting and reading reviews about this…

Pros
  • No pros
Cons
  • Imno with the development of this train, something obviously went wrong .

Contact manufacturer in Revain before purchase

Tried for 3 days to install this drive with Revain and Seagate technicians! A Seagate technician called me to say that Revain had sold a hard drive that was obsolete, obsolete and, as they said, incompatible with my laptop!

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

First time change

My old (>10 years old) 1TB Dell hard drive failed and needed to be replaced. Although the one I bought was slightly different, it worked perfectly and was able to use my recovery disk to get the laptop working again without any problems. Worked as stated.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Replaced my TiVo drive with this

I had a major power outage that caused my TiVo drive to burn out. I decided to swap out the drive myself and get a larger OEM version and bought this one. It has been working for several months without a single problem. I highly recommend this drive.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Repair

This worked for me: Datastore

My laptop wouldn't boot because the whole system was corrupted. SMART didn't work and I had to buy new internal storage which is why I found it at such a great price. It has the same specifications as my original hard drive, of course it doesn't look like the original, but it worked great. I reinstalled Windows and it was able to boot again.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Great laptop hard drive

When my hard drive failed, I took it as a replacement. I finally installed an SSD hard drive in my laptop and now I have a fast computer! But it was a direct replacement for my Asus laptop and excellent value for money. You can use it as external backup storage and it will probably work for that.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Minor issues

Seagate Momentus 1TB 2.5" SATA III 5400RPM 8MB Cache Blank Hard Drive (ST1000LM024) Looking looking for a drive to store backup data. It was a good price for the size, they arrived quickly and in good condition. I don't know the seller and didn't receive the product or the money for my random review. 200313 0645

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Appearance

SSD or SSHD is better to take!

Should have left my SSHD, this Seagate Momentus hard drive is slow in my PS3 DL games. Xbox 360 or PS3! Update 2/21/21 Every time I turn on my PS3 it says it can't read my storage so I have to reset it every time I turn on my PS3 to make it work by sending it back to the UPS store to get a refund. 👍🏼

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Minor issues
