I purchased this drive with the intention of upgrading Win XP to Windows 7. I connected this drive to my hardware as a primary drive and removed all unnecessary peripherals and drives from my system. When I attempted to install Windows XP, I received a STOP 0X0000007B blue screen error. I reseated the drive several times, checked BIOS, etc., but still received the error. I then slaved the drive to my original Win XP HDD, however, Windows could not see the drive at all. After contacting Seagate, they determined that the drive was faulty.I'm therefore returning the drive to Amazon for a refund. I'm very disappointed with my experience with this drive.

I bought two of these 7200.11 model drives in October 2009. One failed immediately and I got a replacement. Over the next month the click-click-click of death began and the drives began to fail.They say that there is a firmware update that fixes this, but in my case it either wasn't applied, or there is more of a problem than they think.Now, the vendor was not Amazon -- it was Fry's and maybe the batches are different -- but I still won't touch the Seagate 7200.11 line for any amount of "savings." YMMV.

Quiet, fast, low energy consumption. Purchased one 7200.12 at a local retailer for use in an Apple Mac Dual 1.8GHz PowerPC G5 as an upgrade for my 7200.7 160 GB Seagate media drive. So pleased with it I purchased a second from Amazon to swap out my boot drive too. Had good luck with Seagate and Western Digital drives so I stick to what has worked for me.

Just read all the other 1 star reviews here and on other sites (rhymes with "egg"). As everybody has written, there is a serious problem with these drives. Besides the DOE and early failures the most reported problem is the freezing. I bought 3 of these for my HTPC and whenever I play anything (VIDEO_TS, mkv, avi, divx...) I consistently get after 3-5 minutes freezing for about 1-2 minutes. It is very annoying in a HTPC but in a RAID this spells disaster. The worst part of this is that Seagate is doing the "head in the sand" tech support. This reminds me of the Intel P4 math error when Intel initially stated that it wasn't a problem, then that it was not a big deal and then finally replaced all those faulty CPU's.Apparently nobody at Seagate has the guts and brains to come forward and call a spade a spade.Nobody should buy any more Seagate drives until they post a fix on the main product page or the main tech support page. I went to the Seagate forums and there are many messages of people calling and emailing and just being ignored for weeks. There are even firmware updates on bittorrent (WTF?). What kind of company deserts their customers to the point that they have to search on torrents for a solution???I just hope that a big Class-Action law firm will loose their data with these drives and take them to the cleaners. Any company that has this much disdain for their customers should be severely punished. At least the CTO and the responsible persons for tech support and customer service should be fired.Maybe an internet-wide Seagate boycott will wake them up!

I ordered the wrong type of hard drive for my system, so I returned this item. However, I have other Seagate drives and they are good reliable products.

I ordered four of these for my Qnap TS-410 a month ago, and none of them have yet crashed, so I am satisfied :-) When it comes to performance I do not think that I would see any difference between another good brand in this class and the Seagate Barracudas, and price is about the same.QNAP TS-410 4-Bay Desktop Network Attached Storage

The drive got here in a couple of days. I installed the Seagate Barracuda 7200 500 GB drive in minutes, after which I loaded an older version of XP. After loading the updates, anti-virus, and networking, the drive boots up fast, performs extremely well, and is more than I expected.

I ordered 2 of the 1TB drives and created a RAID 1 array in my PC. Day 2 after installing, the drive in port 0, failed. I RMA'ed the drive back to Amazon, and they quickly shipped me a new one. I received the replacement, installed, and the RAID array rebuilt. Then, 3 days later, the 2nd drive, the drive in port 1, failed. I'm RMA'ing back this drive to Amazon. Hopefully, I'll have better luck with the new drives. Anyway, there are some serious quality control issues with Seagate. I've never had problems like this with their drives before.The drives, when working, are great. Fast and quiet. However, just don't rely too heavily on the drives. Be sure to backup your important stuff in multiple places.

I purchased this drive on Amazon and used it in an HP MediaSmart EX470 Windows Home Server to increase storage. While playing video from the server the video stream would start to stutter and freeze. I spent 2 months troubleshooting through a strict process of elimination, ruling out the Client PCs, the managed gigabit switch, the HP Server, its software and hardware. When I read of all the problems with the 1.5tb drive I tried removing it from the server,of course everything worked flawlessly with the drive gone, returning the drive to the server the problem continued. Searching the links that the previous review had posted I found many others experiencing this problem. I tried many fo the suggestions such as disabling write cache, I updated the firmware to Brinks-4D8H-SD1B from Seagate's website unfortunately the problem has not been resolved.I chose the 1.5tb drive as the HP sever only has 4 drive bays and I wanted to maximize storage density. Little did I know I would lose nearly 100hrs of my life chasing this problem down. I don't know if Amazon will accept a return, I certainly don't want a replacement drive from Seagate. I also purchased a 1tb Western Digital Caviar Black that has performed well. My next purchase will certainly not be from Seagate.

I don't recommend buying Barracuda 11. Cheap mechanics, loud and hot, many die from firmware errors. Mine didn't came online after reflashing. Couldn't save all the data before this happened. Used Seagate hard drives for many years, now going back to Western Digital.

This drive was dead on arrival. I tested it in three machines with the same result: drive does not spin up. It emits a soft, high-pitched, pulsing whine for the first thirty seconds after the power is applied. The platters never spun, and there was no audible actuation of the drive arm.

I got my Seagate through Bing Cashback and saved a bundle, and I use it as my daily backup storage (via Retrospect) and I have been very happy. No problems whatsoever and the drive is fast and reliable. For secondary backup I also have a Western Digital drive.

I bought two of these to replace smaller drives in a VM server. The change in performance was immediately noticeable and a welcome improvement.

I purchased 3 of these drives for a server and one after the other they have accumulated bad blocks and screwed the RAID.They were packaged adequately so I don't know what the problem was.The second disk took 1 month for Seagate to replace, which is not acceptable.

The HDD as such has been working fine. I'm using it as an external drive so do not have much data on the overall speed as such, I'm limited by USB max speed.The packaging as fine too. unlike some who weren't satisfied,the packaging in my shipment used 2 plastic gloved to keep the HDD hanging. so none of the sides were touching the box.

Generally speaking, you just can't go wrong buying a Seagate drive, and this one is no exception.Rather than jump in the fray of "OMG I GOT ONE WITH BAD FIRMWARE AND I HATE THE WORLD", I'll just let the world know how things worked out for me, because there are more than enough reviews to tell you that this is the speediest, hugest SATA drive you can buy... and that it's the worst drive ever. More likely than not, you've already decided if you're going to roll the dice, and just want to know what to expect if you order from Amazon instead of another vendor. So... here goes...I bought two of these drives from Amazon (not the third party links), and the packaging was incredible, especially for an OEM drive. A box with layers of foam protecting the drive... in another box with packing material. They totally blew NewEgg out of the water here.As far as the drive itself, they came with CC1H out of the box, so no firmware flashing was necessary. The conventional wisdom is that CC1H is the magic firmware that fixes the problems people were having with older iterations of this drive.I've been using the two drives I bought in a RAID 0 configuration on one of my Macs for nearly two weeks now, without so much as a hiccup.

Items arrived quickly in manufacturer's original packaging. They were installed in an Intel SS4200 NAS server. They started up flawlessly, are quiet and quick, and have done everything they were expected to do.

I bought 2 of theese discs and both were in a bad state. I inmediately informed the seller and they offered me replacement of both pieces. It was urgent to replace them because I needed HDD for work, and I live in Costa Rica so I could't wait so much time. I had already bought two WD 640GB Black Caviar, so the seller had no problem in making me a refund. Excellent service. Thank you very much.

After a brutal introduction with faulty firmware that caused many users to hate this drive, Seagate has finally got it right and produced a firmware that allows this monster to work to its full potential. Now shipping with the most recent firmware, this is a fantastic backup drive or media storage drive. I use it in my home server as the storage location for all my media. It works great for that purpose, and with a media extender, plays all my movies (most are standard definition DVDs) flawlessly over my n-band wireless signal. I can stream to my wife's laptop, either of my TVs (via media extender) and it all works flawlessly. I don't have any issue with cache dumping. So if you are reading all the negative reviews, consider that it appears the many initial problems have been taken care of.I have some reservations about the long term quality of this dive, but for that, only time will tell. I think I will get another one and mirror it with my current drive so that if one crashes I have a backup. Seagate has a good warranty, so I'm not TOO concerned about it.Once a real nightmare because of bad firmware, now a great and reasonably priced media/back up drive, this one is a good investment assuming it stays healthy over time.

The drive seems ok now that I have It working. I went to seagate web sight for help to get the drive to work, after I installed It.I found many pages of Info on how to get this drive to work,none of It helped.I finally went to Geek Squad where I purchased computer and they had It going in less than 10 min.Next time I will pay a little more and get better support.
