I have used this hard drive for a few months now, and I can't really say anything bad about the drive itself. However, while researching this product, I did not come across any explicit warning recommending it not be used in a hot-swap dock. Performance is fine considering I have not used straight SATA or eSATA to a computer - only SATA-to-USB dock. Noise is average for a high-speed drive. The killer for my application (open USB dock) is the HEAT. I could grill on this thing after five minutes of just having the drive powered on. It doesn't even have to be working hard to start cooking.I highly recommend only using this drive in a performance high-airflow desktop or a powerful fan external enclosure. My WD Caviar BLACK drive in the same dock never gets hot in open air no matter how hard it is working. I'm not going to give this drive a bad rating, but if anyone is considering buying it, be sure you have the proper setup to support it without risking overheating.

The product is what it is, the description speaks for itself.The delivery was fast, and the packaging good.The size, format, brand and technical specs are somewhat good compared to the average.However, I would have rather not had any SMART errors appearing in the first week of usage, and most definitely, I would have rather not have seen them increasing at a steady rate since then.Since the disc is being used on a RAID configuration, I can afford the uncertainty over the hassle of returning the item from my location, and having to deal with postage.Nevertheless, I would have expected better, wouldn't I?

I just installed this HD a few days ago as a mass storage drive. My OS is installed on a different HD. I really haven't heard any noise out of this drive whatsoever, so I'm not sure what other reviewers are experiencing -- maybe older drives of this same model were built differently. I personally have no complaints!

Seagate Barracuda 7200 1.5 TB 7200RPM SATA 3Gb/s 32MB Cache 3.5 Inch Internal Hard Drive ST31500341AS-Bare DriveDo like the Seagate Barracuda 7200 1.5 TB HD it has lots of room and the seek time is quick. Dealt with these drives for many years and I still like them. I still have an 80 gig drive from Seagate also a Barracuda on my old pc and it works nice and fast. Do recommends Seagate HD's.

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 had been years since I had done any computer upgrades. When my hard drive died, I ordered the SATA; needed the IDE. But then learned about the adapters which enabled me to upgrade to a full terrabyte, and with higher speed than any of the more expensive IDE drives still out there. If you're like me, and holding onto an old computer (which works fine for email, internet, picture and music storage) then check into using an SATA to IDE adapter. Four weeks, no problems. Update...several months, still no problems with drive. UPDATING AGAIN: Years later now, still sailing easy.

This drive was wonderful except that it did not come formatted so I had to format it myself. Worked great one I did so and holds tons of data. Stable an reliable as ever.

Works perfect with my computer as a secondary drive.- Noise Not too much at all.- Speed At 7,200 rpm, I don't think anything could go wrong- Conclusion With the price including shipping and handling. There are nothing I can complaint about. Definitely best buy!

The hard drive works very well, it seems that it use to have a lot of issues with the firmware, but the firmware that comes with these ones is working very nice, but i also update it too just in case :) Anyways if your having second thoughts about buying it because of the old reviews dont worry about it because that bug has been fixed a long time ago.

NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED:I've watched the issue with these drives carefully for about 2 months. It looks like Seagate solved the problem and that a vocal few were ever really affected. By few I mean relative to the thousands sold. And I am not defending Seagate. This whole fiasco was unacceptable.MY SYSTEM:I picked up 8 of these drives. I'm running them in 4 separate DLink DNS-321 RAID boxes. I've copied about 4TB of data back and forth across them for days. My only firmware update needed was for the DLink so that it could properly handle the new 1.5TB drives.In the end I believe all is well with both the drives and the DLink DNS-321. I will of course update this review immediately if I see any problems.PERFORMANCE:We are able to watch movies from this drive arrangement on 3 computers simultaneously across a 100mb network from the same drive while adding new files to the drive from a 4th computer.This means I can be adding movies unattended to the system while watching an Epic Man movie on the plasma in the living room... while the kids are watching Monsters Inc in the bedroom... and the wife is off watching some chic flick in the Den. :)The combination of DLink and these 1.5TB drives is fantastic and seems as stable as the WD 1TBs I was using previously.PROPER DIAGNOSIS:Don't confuse your drive DIEING after a week with the previous firmware problems of this particular drive. Blame the vendor that shipped the drive like it could bounce !ON A SIDE NOTE:I will say I am sick of Amazon, Tiger and other vendors shipping hard drives like they are indestructible ROCKS. Even if they arrive working, this inadequate packaging is certainly taking years off the life of our drives. One of my 8 arrived DEAD as a brick thanks to this nonsense. I am furious about this issue !Will it take a class action to stop this behavior of guaranteeing future drive sales by damaging todays drives through deliberate mishandling of our purchases ?! Wake up AMAZON ! Wake up TIGER !UPDATE: Dec 14 2009One year later, I own 22 of these drives now. 12 are running daily in DNS-321 Raid boxes. The other 10 are used as back up drives in a drop in SATA adapter. No failures since 2 in the first few weeks, I believe due to poor packaging. About 6 of my drives came with the BAD firmware. I never had issues with that either. Call me blessed. I just think the DNS-321 and these drives work very well together.UPDATE: Jan 8 2011Another year passes and most of my 1.5TBs have all been pulled from DNS-321 RAID boxes and used as loose backup drives in a drop in SATA adapter. I've replaced them with the larger Seagate 2TB drives for larger capacity. NO FAILURES OF EITHER DRIVE 1.5TB or 2TB ! I have a couple Hitachi's and WD 2TBs. The Seagate drives are quieter and come off sleep in my RAID boxes faster than the other brands. All are used for video streaming over a network and do a fantastic job.TIGER has been shipping drives MUCH BETTER. Amazon packagers have sent me drives packed poorly just 2 months ago. I requested replacements and Amazon handled the no charge exchange well. But they should NOT have been shipped that way.

I've had this since January 11, 2011 and I've had no problems with it. I've read about firmware problems, but I think they were resolved before I bought mine. I'd definitely recommend this.

If this is a quiet drive, I would hate to hear a loud one. This drive came as OEM in my Dell XPS 9100 and while it is fast, passes every diagnostic, it's seek process is extremely LOUD! I am already wishing I had my old Western Digital back. This thing sounds like the Seagate I had in my old 8088 IBM. If this is progress, Seagate has been sounding still. I have already requested a warranty exchange and will let this site know if this drive is an anomaly. Very dissappointed at this point.

A great drive, easily installed in an external enclosure. I had wanted to image my laptop's hard drive and Seagate have a special software available that would do that well. I downloaded it. Unfortunately, the software searched for "installed" Seagate drives, didn't find mine at the end of a USB cable, and refused to run. I used backup, and will have to look for another software to image my disk.

Seriously, why did I get sent a hard drive without a SATA cable which is ALWAYS included on every other drive? Now I have to wait even longer to get the SATA cable necessary to even install this drive. Would not have bought this if I would have known or would have bought the cable to have them shipped together. This is kind of a waste.

Ever since my mom's HP desktop crashed due to BSOD this June it wouldn't work properly. We tried upgrading to Windows 7 ( it originally ran Vista) but that didn't work at all. It would run right for two weeks and then crash or freeze again, needing Windows 7 to be reinstalled each time. I had enough of this and looked up potential solutions on a IT support forum. Someone recommended that I install a new hard drive since the one that came with the desktop was failing. I ordered this hard drive and and my mother dropped it off at Best Buy to have it installed. Sure enough, her desktop is working just like new again! No more crashing, freezing up or pesky BSOD's! This is a wonderful product and I recommend that any one with a malfunctioning hard drive use this one as a replacement.

All,Barracuda promises few things1. Rotation Speed - for more data transfer2. Lesser heat compared to previous baracudas3. 32 MB Cache offers good data speedI have been using this HDD for almost 6 months now and i am perfectly finewith the fact that it has not given me any problems tilll now.The only problem with 7200 RPM drives is that they are a bit noisy.BUT, this series is comparatively less noisier than some other barracudas.For me, noise is not a big thing to worry as i have put this in a external esata basedenclosure which i connect as a external storage to my PC.Overall, this is a excellent Hard Disk to purchase.I am expecting 7200 RPM and 64 MB Cache series for my next purchase.Its worth a buy when it comes to barracudas!!

The product arrived new but it was not in the original packaging, for some reason it came in a western digital box, however it was not banged up and was in good shape. This hard drive works great in a RAID configuration. Had it now for a month and no weird noises and great performance. No problems running it on Windows 7.

I purchased this drive as the primary drive for a new computer that I was building. It is much faster than the IDE drive that it is replacing (the new Quad System helps too). SATA of course, is also faster. However, the new system will accept SATA 6 Gig/sec drives, and it may have been better to hold out for the faster unit. I have absolutely no complaints with the drive so far. Compared to WD drives, I find Seagate (Maxtor) drives to be much more reliable and that is a vitally important consideration.
