Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

Bought in August 2022. It has been working for 4.5 years, almost around the clock. If it still works for 6 months (up to 5 years) - I will consider the disk was chosen ideally. There are still small doubts, but still I use it not for the system, but as a storage, so I think it will live.
How the storage is completely satisfied - in terms of speed, in silence, the fact that there is not a single broken sector, there are many rewrite cycles, and it is absolutely not necessary to keep the system on it

Pros

Strange as it may seem, speed. If it is connected to SATA III, then the speed is ideal, if it is connected to SATA II, then yes, of course, there are inconveniences.

Cons

Speed if connected to SATA II. For 2022 and beyond, the speed of SATA II is certainly weak, but on the other hand, is there any point in overpaying when an SSD is already being used stably? All the same, Seagate will not go under the system, so it is doubtful whether this is a minus, even on a SATA II motherboard
