Not worth the investment

This hard drive promised to improve my computer's performance, but it didn't deliver. The speed was underwhelming and the storage capacity wasn't enough to justify the high price. Computers need reliable components, but this one falls short..

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Slow, Expensive

Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

1. The product came in a paper envelope + pimply packaging. Despite the sticker on the envelope "caution, fragile" - it would be nice to have a cardboard box on top of the pimple, especially since has such boxes. 2. There are no documents inside - no seller's paper check, no warranty card - nothing. 3. The product is a gray import, there are 2 stickers on the disc itself: "for sale only in China" and "manufacturer's warranty is valid only in China" - that is, Seagate's branded, cool 5-year…

Pros
  • Large volume; 7200 spindle revolutions; quiet; fast and convenient firmware; smooth stop of the motor; helium in a hermetic chamber; the ability to enable the mode of ultra-slow spin-up of the spindle (requires Seagate Tools)
Cons
  • Gray import and, as a result, the absence of a proprietary 5-year Seagate warranty; lack of paper docks (check \ warranty card) from the seller; hot, active ventilation of the HDD bay is required; cannot be flashed in an already running RAID
