YET ANOTHER UPDATE:EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Seagate called me today. They're swapping out my 1.5 TB drives for new 2GB Constellations on an advanced replacement basis. All I have to pay is shipping! The Constellations are Enterprise class (ES) drives that run about $300 a pop (here on Amazon - retail's higher).Seagate's my new favorite company, they've got a customer for life.UPDATE - PROBLEM IDENTITIED:Since I wrote the review below, I've had 2 more 1.5 TB drives fail. I called Seagate to try to resolve the issue, and was told (by 3 different people in 2 different departments) that these drives are NOT RELIABLE in RAID configurations.According to Seagate, they market them as 'desktop' drives which means they are designed to be used for a few hours a day rather than continuously. Apparently they're fine for non-RAID use (one person told me they work OK for RAID-0 and RAID-1, although I'm not sure how that would be different from RAID-5).This may explain the number of problems that some people (like me) have with these drives while they work perfectly fine for others. I wish I had known this before I bought the drives to begin with.==================================Over the last 2+ decades I've owned hundreds of hard drives. I can say with certainty that the Seagate 1.5 TB drive is the worst of the lot, and not by a little.At the moment, I've got 22 drives in service. 12 of them are Seagate 1 TB enterprise (ES) drives. 6 of them are WD 160 MB drives. 4 of them are Seagate 1.5 TB drives. Over the last six months I've had 7 drive failures. 5 of them have been Seagate 1.5 TB drives (the other two were ancient WD-160's). You read that right - 5 failures in a pool of 4 drives.These are not heat or power related failures. The servers run behind a high-end power conditioning UPS and are well ventilated; the drives are barely warm to the touch when I swap them out.I wouldn't recommend these drives to my worst enemy.Just to be clear, my problem is specifically with the Seagate 1.5 TB drives. Their 1 TB drives seem to be very reliable.

When I first got this and installed it in my PC case, it made sounds like someone inside was on a typewriter. This started after I got Windows installed -- probably about 20 minutes into the life of the HDD. I interpreted this as the dreaded "click of death" I've read about but thankfully have never experienced. I got an RMA, took it out the of the PC case and to the post office to figure out the cheapest way to return ship it. When I got it back home I realized I hadn't erased it so I quickly hooked it up to another PC to wipe it, just leaving it to lie outside the case. Surprisingly, it was silent. I ran SeaTools and HD Tune Pro on the drive and didn't get any errors. The drive came back perfect.So, I am now thinking what I thought was a bad HDD was probably just the mounting in the case somehow? Anyway, it seems to be fine now. I don't trust it to be an OS drive so I'll probably put it in an enclosure to be used as a media backup drive.I can't say I've ever had this experience with a HDD. I don't really know what to make of it.-- UPDATE 5/26/2011 --This drive is still going strong in another case as a back-up drive. I have had no errors or problems with it. I've since tried other hard drives in the enclosure this drive was in and those drives do not make the same noises. It's still a mystery why this particular drive rattled/vibrated in that case while others do not.

My drive went out within warranty and i had to talk to a manager just to get them to agree to replace it cus i got it on here and not directly through them, then they wanna send me a refurbished drive and i say no, i bough t a new one and it broke i want another new one, cus thats what i paid for.. they say yes then no then yes then no it was so rediculous very long story short took them about 4 months for me to receive the replacement they promised me.. totally ridiculous and they tried to get out of it a few times too.. It would take a few pages for me to tell you how bad my experience was and exactly why.. I will never buy Seagate again because if something does go wrong they don't want to help even after they say they will they just tried to jerk me around until I give up, and i didnt but it did cost me four months of not having a backup hard drive when i needed one and hours on the phone with them... Absolutely Terrible Service!!!

Bought as replacement for dead imac drive. Works fine. But you will need to get a software fix for out of control fan speeds if replacing the original drive. (firmware issue)

This drive is quite fast (SATA II). I have had good luck with Seagate drives though this one is being used to replace another Seagate drive (only 18 moths old). The old drive did not actually fail... it just got warnings on two different hard drive tests. I think that the old drive may have been the victim of excessive heat. The problem might have been related to the old hard drive not getting a full format by the PC manufacturer (the drive came with a custom built PC). I always do a full format on new drives, thus the fact that this new drive had never been formatted (part of "bare") was not a problem.Have only had the new Seagate 1.5 TB drive for a few weeks but have had no problems with speed or data loss. It has required no maintenance, including defragmenting, and I use the drive for video work (tough on fragmentation); full size/length videos, not just internet publications.I would recommend this drive at this point... will update after I have been using this hard drive for awhile.

When the hard drive stopped working in my parents' Dell XPS 420, I wanted to find a relatively low-cost replacement to get them back up and running. This Seagate Barracuda was an upgrade in pretty much every way (320gb to 500gb, 5400rpm to 7200rpm). Thanks to the way Dell has set up their cases (a great improvement over previous-generation Dells, which were almost inaccessible), it was a breeze to get this baby in and up and running. I had the hard drive in the case and ready to install Windows in just a few minutes.The hard drive is relatively quiet (though not completely silent), and it has plenty of space for anything my parents need to use it for. It's only been in use for a few weeks, so I can't comment on the longevity of this product, but from all appearances it should hold up fine. I've purchased Seagate products in the past with no problems.If you're in the market for a replacement hard drive, for the price you'd be foolish not to consider the Seagate Barracuda line.

I own several Seagate drives, from 7200.9 through the latest 7200.12, in 40GB to 1TB sizes (the 7200.12 is 1TB). I recently swapped out one of my HTPC 160GB drives for the 1TB Barracuda (just for capacity, not because it failed). The drive is dedicated to my HTPC's DVR/PVR app (SnapStream's BeyondTV) which I use on a daily basis.Why am I telling you all this? Because my HTPC records and plays multiple (and often simultaneous) high-definition feeds (yep, all the way up to 1080i) onto or from this 1TB Barracuda, and it has never failed (nor, for that matter, have any of my previous Seagate drives used for the same purpose).So it's fast enough to keep up with 3 simultaneous HD streams (2 recording, 1 playback), and super quiet. Well I do hear it spin up from dormant mode, but after that I can't hear it (the motherboard fan in my chassis is louder! I temporarily shut down the fan and couldn't hear the 1TB drive!).The drive has been running day in day out for about 3 months now, and based on this and my experience with the other drives, it seems it's got a long ways to go!

Received the all four disks within 5 days using the no cost shipping, very nice. Plugged 4 drives into my TR8M Sans Digtal storage, intialized as as GPT (GUID) type via windows disk manager. Created parity raid 5 partition via San Digital and got a single 4 terabyte partion using windows disk manager to format. No problem with about 4 minutes taken between install and quick format to complete. Windows Vista 32 bits running AHCI, Intel q9450, 2 gigs memory, Gigabye x48-DQ6 with San Digital TR8M eSata external storage.I did read about others having problems with same drive with previous BIOS level. My disks were all the latest version of disk firmware (CC1H) and have no problems using my San Digital RAID 5 setup. I have already loaded up about 2 terabytes of the 4 terabytes available (1 drive for parity) using raid 5 with no problems. Drives just as fast as my older and smaller 7200 RPM drives from seagate in RAID mode. To date the drives are problem free, noiseless and very engery efficient during operation and boot. I monitor the San Digial storage via KillaWatt. No spikes at boot and very low watts (about 20-30 watts) per hour for the 8 drive San Digital box with 4 of 8 drives being the newer 1.5 terabyes type.

I bought this HDD when it was on sale for $45 so it was definitely worth the money. However, even at $66 (what it's going for at the time I'm writing this) I would still recommend buying this drive.I read these reviews before purchasing, so the very first thing I did after I installed the drive was update the firmware. It was a relatively painless process that took only a few minutes and worked great. Just make sure you follow the directions that are posted on the Seagate website. I have another Seagate hard drive installed on the same computer before buying this one, and thought that maybe it would cause problems with the firmware upgrade because it automatically detects your Seagate hard drive and does it all automatically. I didn't want the wrong hard drive to get the upgrade if it wasn't compatible, or ignore the new hard drive, etc.. but there were no problems. It detects which hard drive(s) is/are compatible and upgrades the firmware accordingly.I have had absolutely no problems with this drive since I've had it and considering how easy upgrading the firmware was, I've given this product a five star review. It's pretty fast, very quiet, and has plenty of space. Now only if the SSD's were this affordable...

The first hard drive died in about 18 months, and after RMA, the second one died within a week. This is totally unacceptable! Seagate makes you pay shipping to send the hard drive back, and so it is a waste of money.

This device freed up my computer to run faster. I moved all my windows folders to this data drive and in the process emptied about 1/2 the space on the C: drive. This has resulted in much faster performance on my primary drive. This drive holds a lot of data and can be a good backup to your primary drive. Simply backup windows to this drive and if your primary crashes then you can restore the backup. It installed quickly but took almost 4 hours to do a full format on the drive. It is not a fast access drive but is great for saving pictures, documents, and videos. I have also put most of my games on this drive also. When asked where to install the game you simply change the C: in the path to whatever letter is being used for this drive. In my case "C:/program files/GameX/" becomes "E:/program files/GameX/". If your system has the proper amount of RAM then this process will start the games a little slower, but improve overall PC performance.

Received drive and allowed to warm up indoors for 7 hours before installing...realized I have no SATA power connectors on my ancient powersupply...however I have another burnt out supply lying around. Soldering gun and electrical tape fixed that problem.Drive booted normally. No problems after installing windows and 40GB of games. Have no clue about firmware updates, planning on checking that out soon. I will update this review then.Update: My drive came with CC46 firmware installed which is the newest version.About the packaging: Yes, it was awful. Same padding on top, just 2 layers of cardboard between bottom of drive and the ground. The antistatic bag didn't look creased in any of the contact locations so I am going for the glass half full "UPS didn't bang my package around", even if it comes back to bite me.Replaced an ATA133 80 GB 5400RPM. Faster, quieter, cooler. A+++ if reliability holds out.Update 2/27/11 - Still working great after almost 3 weeks of being left on continuously. If it was going to die....it probably would have. I got a good one :D

1TB and 7200 rpm with a 32mb cache was the specs i was looking for. it came down to this and hitachi but i chose this because it was such a great deal on Amazon. older reviews are becoming less and less relevant because of firmware updates and i like how Amazon ships OEM bare drives. it comes in a bigger and longer box that is filled with "air paks" and under all the packaging there is a smaller box where you drive in securely located.go with amazon they do their very best for customer satisfaction. their email response is quick and will do what u want. THEY give u a $5 credit offer for future purchases.I've heard about the bad packaging but i decided to go ahead and try it out myself so i ordered this hard drive and i dont know if im just lucky or if amazon is really paying attention to their packaging because i recieved it yesterday and it was nicely packaged inside a Western Digital box kind of weird considering the HD is by Seagate but anyhow it was tightly secured in the middle of the box with 2 black plastics so it wouldnt bounce around. I bought this for my desktop because my old HD died so i inserted it and installed Windows 7 and its been working perfectly fine. I will try to keep you guys updated on how this HD works out in the future.

It worked good while it worked but I won't buy any Seagate drives in the near future.One day while my computer was on It just failed and I lost all my system and am in the process of trying to restore it from backup now. All it does now is make a strange clicking noise when turned on and is unrecognized by Windows or Linux whether in my PC or in a toaster docking station.I would not recommend it. Besides there are much cheaper and better drives available from other Manufactures.

Pros: Single platter. Indeed quite fast. HD Tach showed 117.6 MB/s average read on one unit, 112.3 MB/s on the other. That's within 3% to 7% of my Spinpoint F3s. Also relatively low vibration, much lower than my F3s. And low seek noise, which I admit does not bother me in general.Cons: Relatively small 8MB cache. Constant high-pitched acoustic whine, noticeable several feet away. Reminds me of what 7,200 RPM HDs sounded like before fluid bearing motors, though not that loud. By comparison, my Spinpoint F3s spin virtually silently, as does my older single-platter Seagate 7200.10, which is still a great drive. You have to put your ear up to them to detect the sound of the platter spinning.Other Thoughts: So, once again, the annoying reality of HD noise: there's acoustic noise and vibration noise, which is potentially much worse, because it can turn your case into a sound (noise) system. My Spinpoint F3s are acoustically silent, but they produce so much vibration and audible case resonance that I have had to place them on low-density foam to isolate it. (Foam weather stripping works nicely.) This is not necessary with these Seagate 7200.12s, in my opinion; loose screws due just fine. However, I don't know yet how to reduce the high-pitched acoustic whine without blocking air flow to the drive. Might just have to live with it, which annoys me a bit. Though not enough to outweigh my generally favorable impression of the drive.

It was time to replace the 500MB Western Digital drive in my desktop, so I decided to try this Seagate 1TB drive. It took nearly 2 hours to format in Windows to NTFS, but I've heard that's typical for Windows and it now runs fast and quiet (so far). Some older Seagate drives have known firmware issues, so Seagate's website allows you to enter the drive's serial number to confirm the firmware and get a firmware bios-flash update if needed. The drive I received was new enough not to need any upgrade. I've only given it 4 stars for reliability due to the fact that I've only used it for a month as of this post. There was no SATA cable or installation CD and the packaging was sparse, but I've ordered "bulk" drives from Amazon before so I knew what to expect and I'm not complaining about it. Good hard drive, good price.

I was undecided between this Seagate Barracuda or a WD Caviar HDD, but after comparing performance specifications and prices, Seagate won.Installation was easy, but 1TB is a LOT of capacity, so you should be patient during error detection scans, disk defrag, and other tasks because they run for a long long time (usually +3hrs).After three months of use, I can say it's a quiet HDD, with no glitches, and smooth running. Its 32MB of cache helps a lot for gaming, watching videos and booting/closing quickly the OS.For its performance, capacity, quality and acceptable price, worth the money. Recommended.

Please ignore the all the bad reviews sighting bad firmware; they fixed all the issues. The packaging is another issue though. My drive seems fine after stress tests and benchmarking/heath probes/tests, so I guess there was no issue with the drive being damaged because of the packaging for me. Just make sure you update your firmware if it isn't already. My drive came with the latest and greatest! The only problem that you could have with this drive is the amount of noise it can make sometimes. This is rare but seems to make an unusual amount of noise when doing a lot of simultaneous reads on different files, but by the same token, I can't even hear it through my case when the drive is maxed out read/write so idk. I shopped around for the cheapest drive and found this one at about [...] tax and shipping free so I jumped. I only wish it had a 64BM cache like some. I would advise against buying a 10000 RMP drive as they are so over priced always. The 1TB size was a perfect complement to my existing 1TB and fits about 837 of my finest movies at standard quality.
