The product is usable, I expected a bit more.

It is imperative that you are aware that the hard drive is always the weakest point of any computer. As a general rule, it fails more frequently and more quickly than other components, which is why it is imperative that you never forget to perform routine backups of any important data! Purchasing this model, as well as its analogues from other companies, can be similar to playing a game of chance: for some people, the product will work perfectly for the entirety of the warranty period and much…

Pros
  • 2 TB for a reasonable price
Cons
  • As is the case with any hard disk, but particularly one from the more affordable category, a variety of problems, up to and including total failure at the most inopportune time, are always possible.

Don't buy it, it's not what it should be.

Acquired in December 2022, passed away in January 2022 Served as a repository for files. There was no sign of the system on it. The end of the summer of 2022 saw the appearance of a few c5 and c6 errors, but the quantity of these errors did not begin to increase until the following month. (kept an eye on nearly on a daily basis) He passed away practically instantly. I caught up on the series. After the conclusion of the series, I walked away for some lunch and then started watching another…

Pros
  • During the final moments of his life, he was able to make copies of some of the files.
Cons
  • After the expiration of the warranty period, a certain and speedy demise is guaranteed.

Upset and disappointed, the product is very bad!

This model or the Western Digital HDD 2022 GB was the deciding factor for me (WD20EARX). As the item was being purchased, WD could not be located anywhere. Purchased a Seagate. The CHH4 Firmware (in my opinion). Produced in the Thai factory. At first, there were no problems; the screw operated as it should have, did not become hot, and essentially did not make any noises while it was doing its job. After ten days, the first symptoms of hemorrhoids appeared. As a Word document was opened, the…

Pros
  • It was peaceful, quick, not warm, and the temperature did not go above 35 degrees.
Cons
  • Dead after 10 days. You buy like a pig in a poke. since many people go through problems that are comparable to mine.

The product is of poor quality, I do not advise.

complete g . but, I bought my wife a photographer for the archive. Everything was fine. Everything was recorded sequentially. As the repairmen said, after the mark of 1.2 TB, he was completely dead. Plus, when testing, there were a lot of slow sectors. I died just when I passed the 1.2 TB mark. Seagate is very disappointed. About 95% of the photos were saved. And he was glad for that. This model is not recommended.

Pros
  • was a good price
Cons
  • died after a year

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

I chose a hard drive for a long time, re-read a bunch of reviews, it has the most positive against the background of other drives in this price category, no vibration or clicks were noticed. For the main aspect is durability and reliability, which has not recently been observed in new hard drives, time will tell. For quality 4 because the previous Seagate worked for about a year and died with a not so strong load

Pros
  • Thin, cool, fast, inexpensive, silent
Cons
  • not revealed yet

I can't believe I paid for it, the quality is disgusting.

For a long time I considered Seagate drives reliable. The screw worked flawlessly for two years. It was used mainly as a file storage. I did not install the system on it, games and programs were installed on another disk, the temperature and vibration modes were within the normal range. After two years of warranty passed, the program for monitoring the health of hard drives informed me about the appearance of relocated sectors. After checking the MHDD disk, I found the occurrence of bads. For…

Pros
  • Price, low noise level, stable operation.
Cons
  • A month after the end of the warranty, the disk began to crumble sharply.

The product did not cause delight, but you can use it.

I already have 9 discs on hand. one of them stands at home for films and so on. feels good. but the SMART head parking counter has already exceeded normal values. I will change soon the remaining 8 are in two NAS in RAID5. RAID collapsed just because of these disks. for some reason, the hardware manufacturer decided to equip their NAS with these drives. in each storage, one disk physically died, and one more simply fell off, but the information was recovered. general conclusion. The disc is…

Pros
  • price. and prevalence of the model.
Cons
  • unreliability of work and the fact that SMART does not warn of imminent death.

A little bit not what I expected, generally fine.

often parks heads in the event that the disk is not a system disk. when idle, it parks its heads every 2-3 minutes. the last one and a half (st1500dm003) lived at 14 months paired with ssd. conclusion: this applies to the entire line of hard drives from seagete: it is only suitable as a system disk + file storage. not in any way as a non-system disk. Otherwise, bury all the information. like this!

Pros
  • low price
Cons
  • not recommended as a second drive.

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Temperatures above 36 ° C have not seen. I didn’t measure the speed, I use it only for data storage, the OS is on an SSD. It suits everyone: quiet, cold, maybe a Chinese fake for Seagate, well, it doesn’t happen that Seagate doesn’t break for 3 years . Got pros: I don’t recognize Seagate, I usually bought an HDD and periodically go to get CC fly vaccinations under warranty or change to a new one, because the old one fell down, but the old ones had a 5-year warranty! and here it’s been 3 years…

The right product for me, there were no problems.

Worked for 4 years, pulled out of the computer in connection with the complete transition to ssd drives. The era of hdd dinosaurs is over for me. So it is fully working, ran hddtest without bad sectors. I don’t know how to exploit the memory so that it breaks, but probably this is a matter of chance or a manufacturing defect. Fortunately, I did not have a marriage and everything worked out properly. I could not fill the memory on this media, the maximum I remember is 1500GB of occupied space…

Pros
  • Classic hdd without a bright wrapper. It just does its job to the best of its ability.
Cons
  • Slow compared to ssd drive.

What a horrible quality, wasted money for nothing.

It cannot be said that this is a disc for your money, although, of course, how much you pay - you get so much. But more about that at the end. The disk dies, having worked within the warranty period, the data is lost naturally. It was used with an average and quite sufficient power supply for torrents, the computer works in a maximum of 4-5 hours a day, no physical impact on the disk, but even in such greenhouse conditions, the disk worked for no more than three years. I took to replace the…

Pros
  • Relatively low price
Cons
  • Dying clearly after the end of the warranty period - a year and a half has passed since the first review was published and the dying continues, but it's too smooth - the disk is under torrents and sometimes bad sectors make themselves felt, but 80% percent performance is still preserved

Worst product for the money, wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Stood in a desktop computer blown by a fan. Smart monitor until the last showed that everything is fine. And once Windows began to boot for a very long time with a disk check. I drove the HDD Regenerator and it's just awful how many bads poured out at once. After reassigning the sectors, it loaded again for the same long time and in Windows it shows that there is a screw, but there is no access to it . I checked Victria, from the very beginning it immediately began to report very slow reading…

Pros
  • Worked quickly and quietly
Cons
  • Died after 1.5 years of work, smart until the last showed that everything was fine

The quality was generally satisfied, there were minor shortcomings.

One such disc was received for the New Year. Worked 8 days under torrents, and disappeared from the system. Surprisingly, after a couple of days, it reappeared in the system, there was uncorrectable damage, the proprietary Seagate utility could not diagnose and recommended to hand over the disk. After that, the disk worked for a couple more months, after which it fell out of the system again and reappeared after a few system launches. Definitely a marriage. All other drives in the system are…

Pros
  • I can't name any special advantages over other 7200rpm drives
Cons
  • Doubts about reliability

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The product can be used, I expected a little more.

If not for these dances with a tambourine, the disc could be considered very good . I hope the manufacturer will correct the sins of these discs in the future . Some pros: Very fast, perhaps this is the fastest drive among drives of this class from different manufacturers (this applies to ST2022DM001 and ST3000DM001 drives and not only to this model) Different cons: Constant crashes. I've already bought 4 ST2022DM001 disks and all have the same problems: With the factory firmware, after some…

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

I started to crumble, at the beginning of the second half or at the beginning of the first, bad sectors, I want to cut them off. Tell me in the comments how to do it better.

Pros
  • Worked well since 2022, good for 7200 revving speeds.
Cons
  • Not quiet.

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Disappointed with the purchase, useless products.

Raw firmwares that destroy their own memory areas, and new ones do not fix old errors, and Seagate publicly denies this. All the same "Fly CC" and a smoking controller. Verdict: the translation table is dead, the disk is dead, sent to the trash can, as well as 2tb of photos and documents. The last thing printed to the console "Boot 0x40M spin up FAIL Servo Op=0100 Resp=0003" After turning off the power and melting the chip.

Cons
  • Noisy, hot, buggy, sprinkled with badies and sometimes fell off.

Disgusting, would not recommend to anyone!

do not buy ! even at half price! I'm already tired of collecting dead hard drives from this company *see photo* (the same WD with significantly higher mileage still work fine)

Pros
  • volume only
Cons
  • the life of seagate screws in NAS is from 1.5 to 2 years and in the trash (I think they look longer in a computer)

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

The Seagate ST2022DM001-1CH164 is a great drive, fast and quiet. Served as the main data warehouse for about 10 years: Steam library several hundred GB of music that played every day; lots of movies and series. When copying data of large files from / to other disks, the speed ranged from 120 to 180 MB / s, in the case of many small files it decreased to 60-80 MB / s. Upon reaching approximately 22,200 hours of operation, unpleasant sounds appeared (head jumping?) And slowdowns when accessed…

Pros
  • Quick Quiet Reliable
Cons
  • In recent years, it began to vibrate with constant work, making an unpleasant hum. At first I blamed the coolers for this, but then I realized that the problem was in the disk and added additional rubber pads to the sled. It became quiet and calm.

The product sucks and the quality is horrible.

Purchased with a 6 month warranty. On the second day, after the end of the warranty period, it fell down. And, every day (in the truest sense of the word) more and more. In my opinion, now all electronics, without exception, have an extremely short service life, which, apparently, is deliberately done by all manufacturers. Since the old hard drives still serve well for more than one year, both Seagate and Samsung.

Pros
  • Quiet, cold.
Cons
  • Life time

I am completely satisfied, item complies with description.

After reading the comments on the kopeck piece, I saw a lot of reviews that blame was knocking, I decided that people were just unlucky - they got married, all the same, the company is reliable and well-known, I myself have been using Seagates for 7 years and there were no problems. The screw really tapped, having driven away by Dosovskoy Victoria revealed a lot of slow and problematic blocks, Windows crashed once a week (Slow blocks became Bad blocks). After Winda flew off, he regretted 3…

Pros
  • quiet, fast
Cons
  • they come from the factory with a large number of slow and problematic blocks, due to which tapping is heard during operation, the system crashes and may not boot at all (can be cured)
