Not at all what I expected.

It was the last corpse, after which I put an end to Seagate. It used to be a normal company, but for the past few years it has been making powdered screws. This particular one worked for a little over a year, the warranty expired - and died. Worked in Word'e began to save the file - not saved, errors, then the Word freezes. At first I did not understand that it was a screw. Then everything hung up. I rebooted the system - it loaded for a long time, with an attempt to automatically recover…

Pros
  • Works well as long as it works.
Cons
  • Unreliable

Before buying this drive, I had a bitter experience using a WD CB drive, also a terabyte drive, which died in the third month of use. I have been using this disc for the fifth month in a moderate mode and so far I am very pleased with the purchase. No noise, no heat, no bugs. Somebody writes that he is annoyed by a 6-month warranty, yes Guys, buy in normal stores with a 2-year warranty - there the conditions for transportation and storage are often better (IMHO).

Pros
  • One pancake One terabyte Really cold Quiet, Buffer 64 mega, Sata3 speed
Cons
  • Not detected.

Terrible quality, disappointed with the purchase.

Reliability is zero: I bought 2 pieces - one was covered with bad blocks after 8 months, the second one after a year and 2 months. Speed: 4.2 Gb / s maximum, while on the same mother there is a WD Raptor and it presses almost the maximum from the SATA controller 5.9 Gb / s. On similar hardware, there are WD Black and they are already squeezing out 5.2 Gb / s. Disappointed in the Seagate ST1000MD003 series - apparently this is too much of a budget option.

Pros
  • Quiet
Cons
  • No reliability! The speed is not 6Gb / s squeezed out a maximum of 4.2Gb / s

The right product for me, there were no problems.

There are two such disks in use, one in the PC of a friend, has been standing since 2022, the second one I bought for myself in the winter of 2022 - there are no problems with them. Two key advantages, because of which I chose this model, are very good speed indicators, and silence in operation. Of course, it is not 100% silent like ssd, but a good case + correct fasteners, and you will hear disk activity only by pressing your ear against the side wall.

Pros
  • Quiet, cold, thin, fast
Cons
  • Not revealed yet

I have been using for about 4 months. I took to replace Hitachi Dle630, which fell down. Hitachi has been creaking since purchase - this one is quiet. I don't hear it on my system at all. CC4B firmware, no clatter of heads. One of these days I plan to take another one in a new system unit. __, December 2022__ At the moment (4 years from purchase) two hard drives purchased in 2022 are in two computers, there are no complaints about them. __, December 2022 6 years have passed since the…

Pros
  • -Price today (2022) ~2300r; -1TB, 1 pancake; -fast; -cold; -quiet; -Sata 3; -64 MB buffer.
Cons
  • Haven't revealed yet. Reliability will show only time.

What did I pay for? This product is a failure.

I'm just at a loss. Either Seagate is not what it was before, or a batch of defective plates, or Seagate has an unsuccessful model. After that, I bought a model from Hitachi and without any problems . tests on the speed and quality of the plates are completely passed. I no longer take Seagate, I switch to hitachi. Has some pros: Slim, quiet. In this model, there is only one pancake, the recording density is 625 Gbps per square inch of the plate, which seems to be super . Cons below: Minus the…

I would like to believe that with the release of this series, Seagate begins again good, glorious times! And the streak of ALL MARRIAGE, which undermined the reputation of this company, will go into oblivion. And this disc makes you believe in this future. I liked this disc in every way. And now for 6 months, I would say a very intense load, he behaves simply perfectly. Aggregate single qualities in terms of speed, acoustics, temperature, well, I, who was surrounded by constantly howling…

Pros
  • About the advantages and disadvantages of this disc was written above. I do not want to repeat the same words with most of which I absolutely agree.

A normal product, but they wanted more for the money.

Vibrates and makes a lot of noise. A month after the purchase, the heads began to click, especially when turning the PC on and off. After 3.5 years, the first sectors fell down. Later, after another 6 months, the disc finally fell down. A bunch of slow sectors and about 4000 reassigned sectors, while this figure continues to grow. As a result, he lived for 4 years. For example, my old 250GB HDD on IDE, which is already 9 years old, is still alive with a bunch of troubles, it works under the…

Pros
  • Normal HD, no special advantages.
Cons
  • Service life, noise

Not worth the money, I will not advise this product.

The disk worked without failures for about 2-3 years. Then I accidentally saw in the Hard Disk Sentinel program that in a few days his health had dropped from 100 percent to 13 ! And this is provided that he worked only 11 thousand hours and turned on 1700 times. If you, like me, do not want to lose gigabytes of important data, then I strongly advise you to bypass this product.

Pros
  • Very quiet, does not vibrate, cool enough.
Cons
  • Low service life (more in the comments).

The average product, you can find a better one.

I bought in January 2022 for 2022. used for file cleaning and torrents for 2 years 10 months. of which the first year is practically 24/7. now > 15,000 operating hours and good smart. read test results: warnings: 2 (slow sectors), speed: according to the schedule from 233 at the beginning to 99 MB/s by the end in the case, the basket with ssd and hdd is blown by a fan, the temperature is < 30 * in idle ate 2022: died after 4 years and 9 months. from the start of use. muffler (not defined)

Pros
  • fast quite reliable cheap
Cons
  • one model, but the filling is different, I was lucky with the revision - 9YN162, firmware CC4H

Poor quality, not suitable for use.

I bought to replace the dying 72002022 (began to beat my head terribly and become covered with bad sectors), which successfully lived for 4.5 years. I got the model 1CH162 with firmware C47. I copied the image of the old disk onto it, launched it. I was immediately surprised by a loud mechanical sound that made my blood run cold - the dying 72002022 began to make similar sounds. But the system worked stably 24/7. Well, let him make some noise from time to time (the pace is ragged: either once…

Pros
  • Quiet (after tuning), cold
Cons
  • Requires customization via programs for disabling head parking.

I bought a complete computer at the end of 2022, at the end of 2022 - beginning of 2022 it began to stop during work, bad things appeared (although not all software sees them), now I feel like the archmagos of Adeptus Meckhanicus, because for 3 months I have been doing solid techno-magic to support this "miracle" is in relatively working condition and I'm waiting for the ordered SSD. In general, I do not recommend.

Pros
  • Speed, volume, price.
Cons
  • Low resource and reliability.

Its pros: 1. Really fast! The standard Ubuntu Disk Utility gave 97 to 206 MB/s for reading (average 168), for writing from 82 to 226 MB/s (average 157). Average access time 14.2 ms. I wanted to buy an SSD first. But I thought volume was more important. And then it turned out that in terms of speed it is not inferior to SSDs at all. 2. Slim. 3. Weakly heated. In a closed block at +30 in the room, it heats up to 37 degrees (my other drive heated up to 44). 4. I did not notice extraneous knocks

Good value for money, I recommend it.

Comrades! do not drive a blizzard on all Seagate 7200 Barracuda [ST1000DM003] drives. Some are made in China with square boards that have a bad reputation for oxidizing contacts (Thai drives have a trapezoidal board). And parking can be disabled in many ways. And do not use these disks as file storage (Will often park), better with Windows.

A little bit not what I expected, generally fine.

He died and was less than 2 years old. Caught such a fly tss. At first it began to crumble, and then it stopped being detected in the BIOS. The size of the zhdd has decreased from 1 TB to 4 GB. Recently, I have ceased to see each other except for life cd, test programs. They changed the controller without results, although smart was good. I took my brother without reading the reviews. I'm sorry. They did not exchange it back because it was in good condition. For this money, I would have taken…

Pros
  • For 2022, the acceptable price is 2500. Quiet. Fast. But when I put win8 on it, compared to a weak laptop, loading Windows from this train took much longer.
Cons
  • Sudden.
