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 purchased 2 of them months ago and they are great!The firmware issue only affects and old batch, so right now (Aug 2009) its safe to buy (even when I buy them months ago it was safe :P )I have one of them on a backup-NAS and other one on my PCH Media player, right now I'm planing on buying a 3rd one (unless something bigger from Seagate shows up).The only negative I can think of is the heat, (they are hotter than the 750GB Samsungs I have) so be sure to have some kind of ventilation for them, and don't place them on a non-ventilated enclosure.BTW, they are really fast drives, you can verify it online on major review sites, in fact I was really tempted to replace my PC's 750GB Samsungs with them, but I really needed the extra storage on the NAS and PCH.

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 had a fair amount of problems installing this drive. It was recognized, but would not format. I must have tried a dozen times and then started searching for a solution. After hours of searching and going down many false trails, I found an article (not on the Seagate site) that mentioned the individual needed to update the NVIDA drivers. Although I keep fairly current, I must have only been updating the video card drivers. I found a complete update on the NVIDA site (after some time) and once I made the update, the drive was able to be formatted. The drive is working fine, but due to the lack of information on the problem, I cannot give it more than 3 stars due to all the problems I had.

When it comes to hard drives, like most people I shop for a name brand at the best price. You never know about how good a hard drive is until you've used it for a couple years (if it last that long) This review is kudos to Amazon for making my shopping/purchases simple and backed by their reputable name.

These drives are working perfectly in my HP Media Server. I added three of them to the unit, they were easy to install and were recognized by it at startup.

I run 24 Web sites in addition to being the author of several books.Land of Childhood's Fears - Faith, Friendship, and The Vietnam War, The Lie Detection Manual,A Synthesis of the Russian Brainwashing Manual on Psychopolitics,EntertainingAngels-Color,Romance In The War Zone - from Land of Childhood's Fears,A Book Of Sermons-Vol1, aqmong others.With all the revisions, edits, artwork, and photos, I need LOTS of reliable storage space, and this drive fits the bill perfectly. It is quiet, fast, and reliable. I am "banging away" on this drive CONTINUOUSLY, and it performs flawlessly.

Bought this drive a few weeks back and it's worked flawlessly. Upon opening the Amazon box, I was utterly shocked to find that it was actually packaged carefully! Historically, Amazon has shipped fragile items in a huge box with absolutely no packaging whatsoever, with the item rattling around like a rock. This drive came tightly sandwiched between two thick pieces of foam. Again, this is a first and probably just a fluke.Note that this is an OEM drive, meaning that you JUST GET THE DRIVE. Nothing else. Zippo. No sata cable, no power cable, no manual, no packaging. Nothing.Installation of the drive is incredibly simple; if you can't figure it out, you shouldn't be using a computer in the first place. Once installed and operating, it's extremely quiet. So quiet, in fact, you'd swear it wasn't plugged in. Data access is very fast; noticeably faster than my 7200.9 & 7200.10 250 gig drives.If you need massive amounts of space, I highly recommend this drive.

I have measured read and write speeds of well over 100 MB/sec on the outer tracks of this drive. This is the fastest drive I have ever seen, and I have 10000 RPM SCSI drives. The price is right, too. This is an ideal drive for RAID. It is low profile and low power so you can cram them into your case without worry of overheating.

I ordered two of these. One came before the other. Both came in the proper drive packaging that is suitable for Seagate warrantee return requirements so you want to save this packaging. It's perfect. I installed them in on Intel's mini ITX Atom based board that has two SATA ports but does not support RAID. I decided to try Fedora Core 10's software RAID 1 configuration and is my NAS. It has been online since Feb 3, 2009 and the hard drives are working perfectly so far.UPDATE: Today, it's Jan 18, 2011. Both drives are still functioning. I have rebooted a couple times within the last six months I think.

I have this drive and it works great. A couple of people are saying that this drive is slow or pauses when transferring files or playing media. They need to check to make sure that there are no jumpers set. This drive normally operates at 300 MB/sec. See below from Seagate's page:"It is not necessary to set any terminators or other settings on this drive for proper operation. The jumper block adjacent to the SATA interface connector on SATA 150MB/sec drives is for factory use only. The jumper block adjacent to the SATA interface connector on SATA 300MB/sec drives can be used to force the drive into SATA 150MB/sec mode for use with older SATA controllers that only work with SATA 150MB/sec drives."The jumper setting can be seen here [...]If your system is sata 1 then you will need this jumper set. If your system is sata 1 and the jumper is not set that could be causing the pause problem since the drive is trying to send the data faster than the system can accept it. If you system is sata 2 and the jumper is set then this could cause slow read/writes.

Well, I am using 2 of these drives in RAID mirror for my My Documents folder (yes you can assign the My Documents folder to specific hard drives, just rt click and go into the properties). This way anything in My Documents is 'backed up' due to redundancy. The drives just work. They are speedy enough, and there is an extravagent amount of storage. I also have 2 250 GB drives in RAID stripping mode for speed, and that gives me just under 1/2 TB on my C drive and 1.5 Tb of storage, total almost 2 TB storage. That is a LOT of space. Fully recommended.

I've got about 15 of these in my array for movie storage and I've never had one fail. I did have one that said it was unhealthy, but performing a repair fixed it and never had issues since.

I recently ordered this drive. I was weary of the quality from some of the negative reviews, but decided to try it out. BIG MISTAKE!!!! The drive arrived in good visual appearance but as soon as I tried to format it, using both windows and seagate's own software, it threw sector errors and refused to format.

Installed this to replace a smaller hard drive for storing video data. Have had no issues, as other have stated, with playing any of these. They are anywhere from less than a meg to full length movies. They are in a variety of formats: AVI, WMV, MPG, ASF and DAT files. Also most music files too. Very pleased with the increased storage size and plan to start replacing other smaller drives now.

I was foolish enough to ignore previous reviews and buy this drive. The first worked ok, but had a piece of metal ratting around inside (good quality control.) The second was completely DOA. I am on Mac OS X10.5.6, by the way. I bought a 2 TB LaCie and have been very happy with it.

This is a great hard drive from Seagate. I use this hard drive for my NAS. It has been turned on since I installed it. I have been filled up 60% of the total capacity. I will continue purchasing this hard drive when I expend my storage.

I, also, bought this hard drive (not from Amazon) and have experienced the same thing with media (audio in iTunes) playback. There was a noticeable lag every so often and I had to move my library back to the other drive that I was migrating from. However, the drive is VERY good for backups, archiving and general storage as it has a usable space of 1.36 TB (1,360 GB) which is MORE than enough for a daily backup of my boot drive, a weekly backup of my iTunes library and Toast images of all of my software CDs so that I have access to all of my software without wasting time searching around for them later.All in all, a very good, LARGE storage drive (5 stars) but a poor media playback drive (1 star). Good for room, not for iTunes.

It stores 1.5 Gb, runs fine and is a good buy. I can't speak for extreme usage. Bought them to back up 40 years of videos and pictures and stuck them in a drawer. Used all 1.5TB. Sure hope they work 10 years down the road if I need them.

Out of the many makes of drives, Seagate is the only one who still offers 5 year warranties and they do not pro-rate their warranty like the others recently changed policy to. This drive has all the room you need, it's quiet and it's fast, in SATA II mode (AHCI). I highly recommend most any Seagate product as they function with little issues and they are supported by Seagate with little hassel. 8 cents a gigabyte is rather cheap.

This hard drive has a well-documented problem with freezing up, sometimes locking up your entire system. There's a firmware fix available--ONLY IF YOU BOOT INTO DOS. If you run Linux or Mac OS X, you're out of luck.
