Seagate ST6000NM0115 Inch 256MB Internal Review

I bought it on 03/23/23 - for 8990R. on Ya. Market. PS: who cares or who does not understand, the disk is for Sata3 (apparently there it can reveal its full speed potential), but I connected it to Sata 2. Attached to the reviews is a comparison table of the cheapest 6TB drives on the market at the moment. Yes, I "slightly" overpaid, but the time between failures became the basis for the choice. If it cost 12 thousand as it is now, I would have already taken the Seagate ST8000NM017B - 8 TB.…

Installed 6 years in Synology storage systems. I use it every night for backup. None of the 34 disks failed during this time. Operate 24/7

Customers will typically receive SN02 firmware CDs. The discs "whistle" on her because of her advanced age. A fresh firmware update, version SN04, fixes the issue. Here is a comprehensive guide on how to update the firmware (it's not easy, so read the instructions first): -seagate-st6000nm0115/

Out of the box, the disc emitted a thin whistling squeak that passed through the walls and was clearly recognizable even in the next room at a quiet time of the day. The drive was purchased with firmware SN02. Began to dig about managing the acoustics of the disk and came across a more recent firmware on the site SG - SN04. It was stitched and - lo and behold - the whistle disappeared. Command line to stop smoking dock: SeaChest_Firmware_240_1150_32 -d PD1 -downloadFW…

I purchased it, transported it, set it up, switched on the computer, and now we're going to copy everything onto it. "enjoyed" the cracking and squeaking while waiting for the copying to finish. It's a good thing I read the comments since then I knew what I was getting myself into. I updated it to the most recent version of SN05 using a flashing tool. What has changed is that there is now a 25% reduction in the amount of crackling that occurs when reading and writing random 4k blocks. Those…

After running in recording mode through Victoria and afterwards reformatting, I saw no blockage issues. Took another thorough reading assessment in HD Tune. In a nutshell, initial write/read speeds of 220-230 mb/s gradually decrease to final speeds of 105-110 mb/s. The CDs shipped with SN04 firmware already installed, as shown on the label. After reading the instructions on the fedoseyev website (just search for "ST6000NM0115 firmware ate"), I was able to successfully ate it to SN05. While…

Standard good disk. I'm attaching speed measurements. Apparently, all disks of this size and rotational speed, regardless of the manufacturer, have a loud sound of operation. It has two manifestations: 1) An unpleasant squeak. This is solved by ating the old SN02 firmware to the newer, currently current SN05. The ate process is quite simple, does not require special skills and is described on the Internet. 2) A sharp sound when accessing the disk. In a silent case, you can hear well. If the…
