Review on Seagate Momentus 2 5 Inch Cache ST1000LM024 by Taufik (Taufik) ᠌

- 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.
