When I purchased the 500GB hardrive it already had the latest firmware. Absolutely no problems whatsoever. The drive is as fast as you would expect and doesnt make any clicking noises. Great buy!

It seems that a lot of people have problems with this drive, but I have had none. I picked up a Hitachi at Fry's and the sales guy told me Seagate was more reliable. They were the same price so I took his word (I always bought Samsung drives when I lived in Korea but Frys doesn't carry Samsung). I believe that was about 7 months ago. I have had no problems.About my usage:The drive is installed in a computer which I built. It is a secondary drive used to back up my Ubuntu files (about 200GB worth) twice a week and to store older files that I no longer use. Windows 7 also uses the drive as backup whenever I log in to that, but it's not often. I have partitioned and repartitioned it maybe 5 times. I was running Fedora 11 from the drive for a few months but have since uninstalled it. I defrag the NTFS partition once a month or less.UPDATE: 2 years later. Still works fine.

Largest HDD I ever had. No problem with installation, partitioning, etc.Works under Windows and Linux with no problem. Price was right as was everything else about this piece of hardware.

The price per meg on this unit is the lowest I've seen and I've always had good luck with Seagate drives in the past, so I picked up this drive over the weekend.Installation: I had two smaller IDE drives and wanted to partition the new drive as C: and D:, then image the existing drives to the new partitions. Disc Wizard initially let me set up the primary and extended partitions, then nuked the extended partition and set the primary to take the entire drive. When I wiped the drive and attempted to recreate my intended setup, I got a BSOD. On reboot, C: was 1GB and D: (500GB) was nowhere to be seen. I once again nuked the drive and let Disc Wizard do what it pleased, which was not what I wanted. The drive came up and I imaged my old IDE master to it, then copied my old IDE slave manually.Performance: inconsistent. Sometimes it's blazing fast, sometimes... not so much. Note that this is in regular use (open apps, creating files, etc), not copying between disks.Reliability: absolutely horrible. Disc Wizard will no longer run, hanging on bad sectors. The sectors themselves report to the OS in negative numbers (e.g. -1,372,010). CHKDSK reports 375GB worth of bad sectors. SeaTools (Seagate's diags) report the drive failed on SMART, the long self test, the generic short test, and the generic long test (but passed the short self test, go figure). Active Hard Drive Monitor reports the drive's fitness at 56% and falling.Warranty: Seagate says the drive is in warranty and gave me an RMA. I have to pay for shipping and their packing instructions are extremely (I might say needlessly) specific. If the replacement drive proves good, fine, but Seagate has an extremely bad reputation for quality of late so I'm not holding my breath.Summary: Not worth the price. This drive is simply not up to any reasonable standard of quality.

OMG! You gotta be kidding about the "Frustration-Free Packaging" phrase. You guys really crossed the line this time.The HDD was shipped inside a simple cardboard box without any protection to avoid receiving hits or bounces inside the box along transportation. It was surely jumping or rubbing inside the box, since the antistatic bag containing the HDD was partially broken where the connection pins are located (the more delicated parts).Hopefully after the beating received the HDD will have an average life.Problem is, since this was an international order, the fact of returning the device to USA in the current condition would just rise the costs already brought to me so far.Thank you for putting such a low effort in protecting a delicate electronic device like this along the shipping.The shopping experience this time was extremely disappointing!!!

Im satisfied with the purchase of this HDD. A SATA 3Gb/s Hard Disk with 1.5 TB (1500 GIGABYTES), 32 MB CACHE, 7200 RPM WAOO!! (I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT I PURCHASED IT FOR 100 DOLLARS). I have read some reviews that said it's the best HDD of 1.5TB in the market. Will cost me a lot to fill it!

Update: I wrote this review before a firmware update was made available and my comments reflect the situation at the time. When the updates were made available, I flashed my 5 drives and they've been working fine ever since. I'd change the rating to a 4 star if the editor allowed.I and many others have been experiencing serious problems with these drives including:* dropping out of RAID configurations for no apparent reason* being ejected from a RAID configuration due to read / write errors* freezing for up to 30 secondsThese problems have been reported on Linux, Vista, XP, and OS X and appear to be related to how the drives flush their write cache. In many cases, the drives work fine for days or weeks before problems appear. In my case, I bought five of these for my Qnap TS-509 Pro and they worked great for about two weeks under various read / write loads. Since then, I've had all three of the problems mentioned above on different drives and they are growing progressively worse. The latest problem was three of the five drives disappearing from the RAID5 volume while I was attempting to copy the files to a different NAS.A work-around that has been successful for some is to disable the disk write cache. Other than the obvious performance penalty and reduced lifespan this causes, some systems do not provide a means of disabling disk write cache (such as the Qnap).References to these problems can be found on many forum threads:Qnap: http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?f=142&t=8826Netgear: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=20435&start=60&st=0&sk=t&sd=aSynology: http://www.synology.com/enu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&p=47101AVSForum: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1080005macrumors: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=571843Ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=933053Slashdot: http://hardware.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1003109&cid=25458241Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/review/product/B00066IJPQ/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?_encoding=UTF8&showViewpoints=1The most informative thread may be found on Seagate's own support forum, where it appears Seagate is blaming everyone but themselves for the problem:http://forums.seagate.com/stx/board/message?board.id=ata_drives&thread.id=2390&view=by_date_ascending&page=1

I just replaced my 2nd 1tb drive, both turned out to be the .11. I know this now b/c on the latest RMA which i'm packaging right now, the Seagate rep offered to change it to a .12 on the return. I lost a significant amount of work both times, although less the 2nd time because I was paranoid after the first. I work in an industry where large video and image files are the norm, and I can't spend a bunch of time burning files that I'm working on. i need reliability in my storage.This used to be an incredibly reliable company, and it's too bad that their large capacity stuff is so lousy. In the case of this one, the model# I bought didn't match what the drive detect program read it as, so it couldn't apply any of the downloaded firmware updates (even though drivedetect was showing it as needing one). The rep at Seagate told me I'd have to download it directly. When I did (I was doing all this b/c the drive was running too slowly to use) the drive was bricked and my OS told me I had to reformat. I'm getting rid of everything I own made by Seagate and never returning. I haven't had products this bad since Maxtor. Probably not a coincidence they bought them. Avoid at all costs unless you don't care about your data.

Good value. Be aware, however, that a low-level format of the bare drive takes about 22 hours when using a USB docking station.

At the time of writing, I have around 16 x 7200.11 drives... of which 9 are the 1.5TB ones (all of which are running the latest firmware, CC1H).The 1.5TB ones are running in RAID 6 on a quality RAID controller (3ware 9650SE-24M8) and every few weeks, one of the drives goes into DEGRADED mode.In all, I've had to send back 4 dead drives and 2 which stopped being read by the controller/BIOS.The worst part of it, is that Seagate keeps feeding me the same BS over and over about how I'm part of a small minority of its customers experiencing these issues or that I must be doing something wrong with my machines or that I'm the unluckiest guy around to have several defective drives...They don't even cover my shipment costs expecting me to continue paying for these drives.I've just about had it with Seagate... the next time I experience any of the above faults, they're either paying all shipping costs and arranging pick-up OR they're paying to replace all my drives with Western Digital equivalents OR they're gonna find themselves target of a lawsuit.

Seagate is known for their Barracuda hard drives. Currently, this is the only manufacturer I would buy a drive from since several La Cie drives failed because of faulty enclosures. After I had taken out 3-4 drives out of their enclosures and trashed them (still have the drives) another La Cie drive starting acting up so I took it out of it's enclosure and discovered it was the power connector to the circuit board, it was not making contact for some reason so it kept powering off and on, I fixed it so the connectors were always in contact and the drive now works perfectly, no power issues. I never had this problem with Seagate drives and because of this they are my brand for now on. I'm a film maker and artist and can't afford to lose any data.

I own my own Tech company and have worked in major DataCenters throughout the world. Not a single Mainframe, reputable server, or enterprise desktop, uses any other HDD other than Seagate. Period. Seagate invented the Floppy disk. Invented first HDD to fit in the FDD 3.5" form, first to introduce 5400rpm, 7200rpm, 10K, 15K, and so on. I have never had a Seagate HDD crash on me, EVER. One customer though had one that had died, it was a 10GB HDD from 1990. Also WD suck. They always crash. Also Seagate are the only drives that have Shock Protection.The people who rate this product negatively are obviously ID10T's. If you buy a 1TB HDD the r/w time is going to lag, read the specs on the manufacturers website. Please do not complain about something you should have investigated beforehand.Bigger Drive = slower speed.I have one of these HDD's and I only use it as a Secondary Backup Drive.You want speed go with SCSI.

I bought two new Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1.5 TB - SATA-300 on October 13 2009, they shipped with the CC1H firmware. They worked fine under Windows 7, but about 30 days later I started to hear the click,click,click then the computer would lockup with Event Log errors that hard drive timed out. I ran SeaTools for DOS (boot cd-rom) which found 6 errors and fixed them. About 10 days later the computer froze again, upon reboot it wouldn't boot. SeaTools for DOS said the drive was not responding to any commands. I called Seagate Support was said there were no known problems with this drive and sent me over to Warranty Support where I paid $19 dollars to get another drive shipped so I can re-build my PC. Google search for Barracude 1.5TB freezing has a lot of hits.

When I plugged this drive into my PC, the BIOS and XP reported the drive contained only 32MB instead of 1TB. After trying a few things, I burned a bootable CD with MHDD on it. This utility reported the drive had 1TB. I used the CONFIG and FDISK commands of MHDD to reset the drive information. After that, my BIOS and XP reported the drive contained 1TB. It works well.I'm giving the item 4 stars because of the need to reset the disk info to 1TB and because Amazon's packing was terrible for a disk drive.

I needed a new drive for my laptop,so I went to Amazon. Unfortunately their website has some problems. I searched for Laptop/notebook drives and this product came up in the results(not sure why). So when I saw a Seagate Barracuda 500 gig in the results I was thrilled. I'd never seen a Barracuda drive for a laptop before(I used to work at Seagate Labs in development). So I was excited because I know the reliability and performance of the Barracuda drive. Its a shame I couldn't use this drive. It's an even bigger shame that Amazons' web site is not able to tell the difference between laptop and desktop and that Amazon is charging me so much for returning it that it's not worth it to do so.

I partitioned and formatted and it only came out to 1.35 terrabytes, I really do not want to go through the hassle of unscrewing the drive, unplugging, taking it out, and shipping/returning this drive back to the sender but seriously, they need to check their drives. VERY disappointing... 150 gigs is a lot to be missing when your spending over a $120.Everything else is fine on the drive though.

i bought 5 drives from 2 lots for a 4-drive raid + hot spare. first drive was courteous and failed (tick, tick..) within a week. the second one took 4 months (this week). firmware is CC1H. on the plus side, seagate's turn around is pretty quick.i wouldn't dream of using one of these drives w/o redundancy.edit: oops.. just lost one of the replacement drives 1/9.3 from the other lot continue to chug along happily, tho, so could be a bad lot. but truly does show you should buy from several sources.
