I needed a hard drive because 5 drives went out at the same time. No more WD. I am only using Seagate and this one will replace all of them. Thank you very much!

I purchased three on 29Sep11 and had one of the three fail on 12Jan12. That is very poor reliability. According to Seagate's specifications on the ST2000DL003 model, the Mean Time Between Failure is 750k hours, and 0.34% annual failure rate. After looking at the other reviews here, it appears as though this drive suffers a pretty high infant mortality rate and potentially enough to invalidate the Reliability specifications on Seagate's website. I was lucky to buy the drive prior to the 2011 Thailand Flooding, so the price ($75) was about 1/2 of what it is now. I would certainly not recommend buying this drive for anything more than $75, if I were to recommend it at all.To RMA the drive, unless you pay a fee for Advanced Replacement, you must follow *very strict* guidelines from Seagate (including the vendor of packaging you use) for shipping the drive back. This is the note that they provide in the instructions for RMA: "In event you do not currently retain any of the suggested packaging in this document there are options to purchase packaging provided below. "Seagate does not sell packaging materials separate from our products, neither does Seagate authorize nor recommend any specific thirty party vendor's packaging materials or services. The company that provides packaging materials is: "Reflex Packaging, Inc."

I purchased 5 of these along with Synology DS1511+ NAS from Amazon back in April, 2011 for my home. I can't say about how they perform as internal drives for a desktop or in an USB/eSATA external enclosure, but I can definitely state that they work great as NAS drives. I have these configured as RAID6, which means you can lose up to 2 disks and still have your volume intact (but at point you won't have fault tolerance). The NAS I got itself is a high-efficient unit, and combined with these green drives it definitely consumes less power than the two servers that I replaced...and I have 5.44TB of fault tolerant storage accessible from my 10 PCs/Macs.I saw other reviewers commenting about them not being "high-performance" drives. That is correct, this drive was never intended to be used as your primary drive for your system. If you're looking for a high-performance drives, you should definitely look for 7,200/10,000rpm drives with 16/32MB cache.However, when used in a RAID configuration, these drives will deliver high-performance with overall reduced power consumption. In my NAS I was able to sustain around 160MB/S throughput writing to NAS over gigabit network (and even faster reading from it). There's nothing low-performance about these drives when used in a proper setting. The drive is also quiet. Standing next to my NAS, I can't hear any drive noise even with 5 drives side-by-side.Bottom line, don't purchase drives purely based on price and capacity. You don't buy Prius for high-performance, why expect high-performance from a "Green" drive? Identify what you're going to do with it, then look for qualifying drives for best result. I would have never purchased this to be used in my desktop (for performance) and neither should you.

When I bought 4 of these drives they were around $70 each, for the capacity the price was great but performance in my Nas has been terrible. My Nas falls out of sync every 2 months or so.

Ordered and installed this drive in a Readynas Ultra 2 which had come with the identical drive installed in the first drive bay. Started out fine, but after ten days it started giving me SMART warnings that failure was imminent. The drive won't pass a SMART self-assessment because the seek error rate is abysmal and getting worse. Took advantage of Amazon's exchange policy and they are sending me a replacement (thanks to Amazon). I have also taken the step of purchasing even a third drive to act as a spare in case I have similar problems in the future. It is unfortunate that hard drives of all brands seem to have increasing numbers of failed drives. Incresing complexity, manufacturing woes (floods in Thailand) and competitive pressures are driving all of this...but that shouldn't be an excuse. The industry seriously needs to take a step back and evaluate their business model that produces devices so critical to business growth but prone to such high rates of failure. I hope my next drive is a keeper...I really do. Maybe it is time for Segate to pull some of their manufacturing back to the USA...as many others are doing.

This drive is awesome, it is the quietest 2TB drive I've ever heard (or not heard rather!). Whisper quiet and it doesn't even get warm to the touch. I'm using it in a external docking station and I love it.Highly recommend to anyone, extremely fast access and transfer, whisper quiet and doesn't even break a sweat what more could you ask for in a drive!

I bought five of these HDD's to match a Synology DS1511. After one month of use, I have no complains.I'm using previous Seagate 2TB LP (ST32000542AS) for over a year now. And, I was never very pleased by the older model: it make some strange noises that scared in the beginning. All four ST32000542AS units that I have do the same strange "click" noise. Googling I discovered that this annoying noise is normal for the first LP generation. This is a problem when you have 5 of then working together in a NAS.So, the first improve I noticed in STL2000DL003 is the quiet operation. Then I made some benchmarks using HD Tach:- Compared with ST32000542AS (firmware updated to CC35) the unit is faster in average read (113MB/s against 97.1MB/s) and uses less CPU (2% against 3%), but has worst Random access (17.4ms against 14.2ms).- Compared with WD20EARS: the unit is faster in average read (113MB/s against 100.6MB/s) and same CPU use (2%), but has worst in Random access (17.4ms against 16.2ms).Anyway, it's a nice HDD for the price.Other Thoughts: Some people do prefer WD hard drives, but in my experience there is no advantage in this particular brand. In the past I need to use worldwide RMA (from Brazil, to be specific) from WD and from Seagate. More than one time for both companies. Seagate was always fast and painless: no more than one week between send the defective unit and receive a new one (again: outside USA!).But with WD was a nightmare every time! More than one month to receive back the same unit, but refurbished. Guess what? The defective unit that they refurbished and sent me back has become defective again... Another "over a month" waiting for a solution. This happened more than one time, first with external HDD then with internal HDD (green caviar)! Since these events, I never bought a WD again and I don't recommend to anyone.So, in my opinion and my experience, the Seagate costumer service is another highlight for this HDD.

I purchased two of these drives to expand my raid-1 from 1TB to 2TB. I removed drive 2 (HDD2) from the unit, and replaced it with one of the new Seagate drives. It rebuilt in 3 1/2 hours. I moved that drive to the drive 1 slot (HDD1), and put the other new Segate drive in slot 2 (HDD2). After approx. 2 hrs., the raid unit was showing a red led for drive 2, and sent a message to the screen that it could not continue with the rebuild. I pulled HDD2, and tried to format it again. The PC (iMac i7) could not see the drive, so I tried my MS machine (Windows 7), and although it showed a drive as RAW - NO FORMAT, I could not do anything with it. The platters were spinning, but I never heard the heads move.The drives are exceptionally quiet, and even after the one drive ran for 3 1/2 hours, it was much cooler than the 1T WD drive. However, the 2 X 1T WD drives haven't failed in two years.I've returned the drive to Amazon, and they, as always, are sending a replacement unit while I box up the defective one for return.I've been ordering from Amazon since the mid 90's, and I have never had a single problem with shipping or returns.*** I received the replacement disk, and installed it in the raid box, and it rebuilt with no problems encountered. These two disks must disapate significantly less than prior disks. The two drives ran for 11 hrs. copying data, and were still cool (just above room temp.) when the re-build finished.These drives will be in constant use on a video production system, so I will modify this review if there is some change to report. I changed the rating to 4, as I am very impressed with the noise level and low heat generation of these drives.

Should have heeded the warnings. Seagate used to be a good brand, but no longer for me. Drive was flakey from day one and I can no longer trust it for backups. It seems to have problems spinning up or too many bad sectors. Warranty is pointless, as I'm not sending drive with confidential data on it off to strangers. Dead in less than a month and 10 hours of use. As other reviewers have noted, this drive "beeps" when it is going to act up, so be warned.Update: before trashing this drive, I moved it to an enclosure with 50% more amps. With this extra power, drive now seems like it might be an OK backup drive. It is counter-intuitive to me that a "green" drive takes more power at times, but that seems to be the case. Other reviewers have noted the idiosyncratic power requirements of this model.

I just bought this Seagate 2TB hard drive after seeing great reviews of the product. I was going to use it as a back-up drive for my computer. I bought a hard drive enclosure for it and hooked it up via eSATA. For just shy of two days, the hard drive worked great. File transfers were fast, and it sounded very quiet, much quieter than my other hard drives.Well, by the second day, when I went to use my computer, I noticed the hard drive was making intermittent beeping sounds (in 1-second intervals). The computer no longer registered the hard drive. Other than the beeping sound, I didn't hear any disk spinning.Because I was using an external enclosure for the drive, I tried the following to rule out reasons other than hard drive failure: (1) I disconnected the eSATA cable but kept the power supply to the enclosure going. Still beeped. (2) I installed the hard drive into a different enclosure to rule out a faulty enclosure. Still beeped. (3) I installed a different hard drive into the enclosure I used. Still beeped. (NOTE: I didn't install the hard drive in my computer because I have a slimline desktop, I had no extra hard drive bays, and swapping the existing one was too cumbersome).I explained my methodology of testing to a Seagate Technical support rep, and he agreed that the hard drive had failed.Anyway, I am very disappointed, obviously, since the hard drive lived long enough just for me to back up ALL my files before it died. Now I have to return it to Amazon without being able to properly wipe my drive.I have purchased Seagate drives before without problems, and I know hard drives can fail at any time, but it's difficult to overlook the fact that it took less than 2 days for this unit to do so. It definitely makes me think twice about purchasing a Seagate drive again. On the other hand, if it didn't fail, I actually think I would have really liked this hard drive!

I got two of these at the local store (sorry Amazon) for $69.99 Retail Box, not OEM (i.e. bare drive) and I got a very good surprise as the box states Sata II and 32MB cache however the drives are in fact Sata III and 64MB cache which, for the price, is awesome as they also come with a 5 years warrenty. Also they came with the latest firmware CC32 (that you can also find here [...]) which was a nice thing.Windows 7 x64 recognized the drives right away and was able to format them on my Gigabyte AMD based motherboard using SB750 chipset in RAID mode.As you can store a lot of data you sure don't want to loose everything if a drive dies, hence the RAID 1 or 10 would be a good option. I'm always affraid of RAID 5 for drives that are not meant for RAID from the manufacturer.Nonetheless, I started to build a RAID 10 for my NAS server (I'm using the free Starwind iSCSI NAS) and I was able to create a RAID 10 using two of these Seagate drives and 2 of the Hitachi Coolspin 3TB. As the drives are different capacity and speed I thought it would have been an issue at some point but the AMD RaidXpert took care of everything and seems happy with the configuration. Also I get around 330MB Read/Write in RAID 10 which is pretty good for Green Drives.I'll update this review after weeks of usage to see how they behave over time.So far so good. I'm transfering data

I ordered 4 of these drives for a NAS unit and took delivery of them on June 15th, 2012. As of June 30th 2 out of 4 drives have failed. One lasted all of 4 days. The other managed a whopping 15 days. So far both failures have been under Amazon's 30 day return window and returns/exchanges have been handled promptly. I've not suffered any data loss on the NAS, but I'm very nervous that these drives were a waste of money.

I never knew modern day Hard-drives failed SO FAST! I've had this product for barely 3 months in my NAS and it no longer boots up!I bought this drive to use in my Synology NAS as my primary data store at home -- I had spend hours transferring 10+ yrs of personal photos, videos and my entire music collection. I was finally getting happy with the way my music played seamlessly from my wifi-player and they way my photos showed up on my TV through other devices.My use of the harddrive on the NAS has been 'light' by most standards. I used it for about 1-1.5 hrs a day and the harddrive would be turned off during weeknights and weekdays.One fine day, not too long into my 'happy' home setup, to my utter shock - I noticed that my NAS started beeping, implying it was unable to boot up ... because the harddrive had crashed!!!I had thought Seagate to be a respectable company making quality products but unfortunately this wasn't the case in this case -- and this learning turned out to be at the expense of some valuable data.I guess the lesson I take away is: (a) I'm not buying a Seagate harddrive again. (b) It doesn't matter which Harddrive one buys, its important to have a backup routine. (c) If one has a NAS (like mine) that accepts 2+ Harddrives, it's worthwhile spending some extra money and building some redundancy (RAID).I hope this helps other buyers.

I run a data recovery company and seeing how these hard drives are packaged is a disgrace. This must have been the first time someone packaged a hard drive as there was no padding at ALL on the bottom of the hard drive. Additionally the hard drive could move freely back and forth. If your sending out hard drives make sure you package these items with appropriate padding on each side of the drive since they are extremely fragile. The hard drive should NOT move in the package.I asked for overnight shipping on the first drive and they were good to get it out the following day of my return however the next drive was DOA as well and poorly packaged like the previous one!!! Whoever is at the packing department of this company is making the manufacturer and this vendor look bad. Get them in line and a lot of these negative reviews will start to disappear.

It's slow and it's maybe not the most reliable, but I have an SSD cache and backups, so my priority was max storage for minimum money, and this fit the bill. I haven't had any problems with it.

The drive's warranty information is NOT 3-years as Amazon lists. It's only 2 years. In fact, it's only 1 years and 8 months based on the serial number I provided.I have to send Seagate the Amazon's receipt in order for the warranty information to update to the correct 2 year length (they will NOT do 3 years).Avoid this drive if you're worried about warranty!

I've been using the 2T version of the drive for over 6 months with no problems. I use it to backup my main drive. It seems to be faster than I would have expected for a 5900 RPM drive.

Good warranty. There are now only a few main companies who make hard drives so they don't have to compete any longer and are take there warranties from 5 yrs or 3 yrs to 1 yr which is horrible. This had a 3 yr when I purchased it and that could change. Drive works great so far. I only had this for a few months.

I bought 3 of these drives for a small business NAS (Synology ds212j).2 drives were set up with RAID 1 mirror, the 3rd drive was just a replacement in case 1 of the other 2 failed.Within one month, 1 of the active drives was reporting back drive errors.I'll order another as a back up for now, but hopefully Seagate's warranty will replace it.It's probably just bad luck, but felt it's important to publicly document the issues so the customer can be aware.

These are great drives so far. 6 months in and they are still quiet and cool (relatively). They would have received 5 stars, but I had to return one that was DOA. Exchange was easy and fine, no questions asked. Well I should add that the DOA was from another company that has one of Easter's symbol in their name and are New - Anywho, Amazon meets or beats their prices anyway. The ones from Amazon have been 100% great. Love these drives!
