Been using this drive for half a year now, and I must say, I'm impressed with it. It's now Spanned with a 500 GB to give a nice 1.5 TB partition, and I just can't seem to fill it up. It's fast, it's efficient, it doesn't have any errors or data loss problems. What else could you want, except maybe two?

I have used both Western Digital Green 1TB and Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1TB in DLINK 323 NAS device for about a month. These are my experiences... Seagate didn't need firmware update.Packaging:WD was packaged very well with cushion padding where as Seagate was packed really lousy. I had ordered 2 drives in each brand and one of the seagate boxes looked like it was opened already (may be it was human error while packaging; I didn't bother).Noise:Seagate is noisier than WD but it is much smoother than WD. Meaning, WD produced lot of hard clicking sounds that really irritated me (both drives; may be just the two I received were defective). Clicking sounds from Seagate felt normal to me (and it was muffled).Heat:Seagate got much hotter than WD. I figured WD didn't produce as much as heat because it uses "intelliseek" that runs the motor at optimal/slower speeds rather than the advertised 7200rpm.Speed:I couldn't compare speed as I was running WD in RAID1 and Seagate as Standard drives.Overall, I am very happy with Seagate mainly because of its much smoother operation and brand reputation.Hope this review helps!

The Drive has great capacity and was an easy install into my computer. I use the drive for back-up with my main disk cloned to the Seagate. I've had it for several months without any issue. If you have ever lost data before, you can appreciate the montra -- There are two types of hard drives: Those which have failed and those which have to do so. No hard drive lasts forever; the capacity and afordability of the Seagate Baracuda makes this drive a good buy.

I have used this drive as a backup drive for my personal workstation for 6 months now. It reads and writes better than other comparable drives in my other systems and Windows Vista and Windows 7 both had working drivers for it out of the box.

My st3500320as bricked itself today after 6 months. Seems like the firmware problem. It would be useful if seagate would proactively notify users about such danerous bugs in the firmware. Also, if the drive is an OEM drive Seagate will not repair it nondestructively, even if the problem is due to the faulty firmware. If you buy a seagate it may be prudent to wait a few months to make sure that model is stable, since so many of their newer drives seems to be having firmeware and related issues.

I upgraded to this drive from a new 500MB WD model that failed after 9 months of hassles, bad sectors plus power consumption problems. This drive is faster, quieter, and so far (3+ months) extremely reliable. I use it as a primary drive in a Core2Duo PC running XP Home, no RAID. Will always buy Seagate again, I have no other affiliation to them besides being a satified customer. 32MB buffer makes a noticeable speed difference over my old 8 MB. Did not need to load any of their software, it ran perfectly out of the box.

I have been using Seagates now for awhile, and pretty much have been buying only Seagates for the couple of years.Usually they are rock solid, no failures or drops outs, and I have 2 of these. One went bad, and it was one that did not have the firmware update when I looked at the Seagate site and checked the serial numbers.The other one has been fine. It is a pain to update the firmware, but once done it works. The drives are otherwise quiet and run fairly cool. The ones that work deserve 5 stars and the firmware issue is pretty poor. (I use these to back up my computer and rotate them, so nothing lost fortunately.) The firmware should be fine on the newer ones, but keep it in mind.

I use this in an external hard drive case and have owned it for over a year. It worked fine for me. I partitioned this without any issues. It has not given me any issues till date. I have it hooked to my WDTV and it works flawlessly.The speed on this is blocked to 1.5Gbps by a jumper. Remove the jumper to bring out it's full potential of 3.0Gbps.Would definitely recommend it.

When you get this drive just go to seagate.com and pop in the serial number and it will tell you if your drive needs the firmware update or not. I received mine and was told by the seagate site I did not need it. So I installed, loaded OS, powered down a couple of times to test and everything works fine. Pretty fast write speeds as well. Btw I have purchased personally and for work Seagate, Maxtor, Western Digital and Hitachi/IBM drives and all have at one point or another have failed. Yes the seagate issue is a special case just like the IBM "Deathstars" years ago. But to say one company makes drives that fail more than others is just bullcaca.

I really read about this model, about its good performance and capacity, but also read about lots of DOAs, or deaths of drives in 1 or 2 monhts. I gave it a try and bought 2 of these for making a 1TB RAID0 array. But it wasn't the best bet, the array failed in 2 weeks, but because I used linux, even that the array was failed I could still read it (using sata_sil driver suse11). I hurried to buy a WD drive, and backed up all my data to this hard drive. The array failed because the drive started to present errors (SMART), so I don't trust this drives anymore, now I have them in a RAID1 array just to be sure. This was a big dissapointment, these days Seagate has bad quality SATA drives. Think before you buy them. low reliability.

I had bought 2 of these for my home server and one of the 2 failed. AMAZON was awesome and 'overnighted' me a replacement drive. I sent Amazon the request to replace the drive around 4:00 p.m. one day and the new one was in my hands around 10:00 a.m. the next morning. If that's not great service, I dpn't know what is. + after getting the replacement drive the remaining 2 drives work fantastic. Thanks, Amazon!

Drive managed to last 1 week past it's warranty. Buy if you enjoy throwing away money and lossing data.

Despite reading the many negative reviews, decided to take a chance with having to return this drive. Installed/initialized/formatted/partitioned it without any problems. Created an clone of my existing dual boot OSes onto it. Then ran GRC's (Gibson Research Corp) Spinrite over four days, a few of them running for more than 20 hours at a time. No problems were found. So far, no problems encountered during actual use...

Excellent Disk Drive. 1GB. Fast. Easy To Install. Great Amazon Price ($89) Fast Delivery. No problems. Remember to buy a Molex to Sata Power Cable Adapter. Needed for older systems with Molex Power only. Converts 4 pin Molex to SATA power (15 Pin).

I just purchased 2 of these drives for use with a Voyager Q from Newer Technology as my backup system. My computer is a 2.4 Ghz iMac and I'm running these drives on FW800.Regarding performance, these drives are great. As a comparison, I have a 750GB WD MyBook FW800 drive that I had been using as my backup drive. I copied a 17GB file from the main computer to both drives (at different times) and it took over 6 TIMES as long to transfer the files to the old drive (which is less than 1/2 full) compared to these drives.Non-performance stuff: this drive is quiet. Also, both of my drives checked out to be unaffected by the drive issue according to the Seagate website.

I bought two of these. When I first got them I noticed jumpers on them and found that all they do is limit the drive to 1.5 GB transfer. I used a safety pin to remove the jumpers (they are tiny) to get the 300 GB transfer.Then I went to Seagate's site and read that a small number of these drives have firmware problems and an update is available (also they have a way to get data off drives that have already broken). I updated the firmware in my drives and have not had any problems with them, they are fast, especially in the RAID 0 stripe I put them in, and work great.So if you get one with a jumper in it, take it out, and go to Seagate's site so you can update the firmware, and you should be good to go.

Im a professional cinematographer, so I use up TB's easy. Out of all the drives I use mostly WD the few Seagate's I have 2 of them died. Seagate replaced the drives and lucky I had the footage backed up.

If you haven't read about this drive's issues elsewhere, let me enlighten you. It seems that on some drives manufactured last year, the firmware has a big bug: it will lock up on boot-up and not be seen by the computer. Your data isn't gone, but you won't be able to access it. There is supposed to be a somewhat simple fix for this- if you're kinda techie skilled (I haven't tried yet for my bricked drive)..So, if you buy this thing, IMMEDIATELY after receiving, determine if its one that needs an upgrade to its firmware. Seagate has a page devoted to this on their website..Otherwise, it was a sweet drive- plenty quick and quiet. I just wish they had done a better job of advertising that there was a problem.

I bought this about six months ago when the price was much higher, but I still feel like I got an exceptional deal. This had NCQ (native command queuing) that most drives do not. That means when files are highly fragmented, the disk drive itself intelligently reads the files according to where they are positioned on the disk and then puts it back together before sending data to the computer. The result is a faster disk than one that doesn't have this feature. I had zero problems with this disk, unlike one of the 1.5 TB drives. I had to send that one back for exchange and got one back that vibrates slightly. So, I plan to purchase another 1 TB disk with NCQ to complement the one I have. I may make it into a RAID configuration.

I'm running this disc as a separate HDD, and not a RAID disc. I haven't had any problems whatsoever with this drive.

I was weary about getting this drive since I heard all the problems of loosing data and these drives going bad after a short time. Don't believe the hype!! I went ahead and bought it and installed it. I went to the seagate knowledge base site, downloaded the firmware and followed the instructions on the site. I updated the firmware and the drive has been running smooth and FAST!!I love the space for the OS and all the apps I have loaded. The price is so good too that, I think I am going to buy another one so I can dump all my pics and music on to it separately. Or, maybe two so I can run a RAID setup. Anyways, don't let the firmware problem scare you, this is a very good drive.

Perhaps Amazon has done some retraining of their warehouse crew since the earlier complaints were posted? My 1TB OEM Seagate Barracuda was packaged very securely inside of foam padding similar to what is found in the packaging for retail Seagate drives.This box was then placed inside of a second box for shipping.It only took 4 business days to arrive via USPS! Thumbs up to Amazon for their care in packaging of this drive for shipment.

Easily installed: one data cable, one power connection.Formatting/config:reasonably easy, a function of your OS (I use Ubuntu Linux).Worked fine for three months (long enough to be out of shippers warranty), then died on powerup (a known, presumably fixed, problem).Seagate returns policy:seems reasonable (I think it's best to buy their Advance Replacement, to get all the required packing materials). However...My issue is: they recommend you delete all the personal data on the drive before sending it in (you don't get the original back, they send it overseas for refurb and they can't protect the data). If I was able to access the drive well enough to delete all data on it, I wouldn't be sending it back.
