I'm a disk hog - I'm currently running with 3 internal hard disks and 10 external hard disks due to all my video processing. Since my first PC purchased in 1984, I've only had 2 hard disk failures - they are both Seagate. My latest failure is a 500GB Seagate drive 7200 rpm Barracuda. It was OEM with my Dell computer and failed after just over 2 years. The other hard disk failure was a 2.5" external drive 120GB that failed after 4 years. Most of my other hard disks are Western Digital, but I do own a few Toshiba and Hitachi drives.

I would have been perfectly happy with this drive except that one of the screw receptors was misaligned or not properly threaded. The drive is installed with 3 of 4 screws and the stub of one that broke off. It appears to be secure enough and to be operating okay but this installation problem was a disappointment. Perhaps if it had come with screws (as it should have but didn't) Seagate would have found this problem and would not have shipped a drive with this defect.

Bought this in spring of 2010, only to have it completely fail by fall 2010. Apparently the 7200 series has known issues. It failed to back up any of my files before it stopped working completely after about 6 months. I lost tons of photos and documents that I thought were backed up. Company offers no help with data retrieval, which starts at a cost of about $1600.I'll never make the mistake of buying anything by Seagate again.

I bought this drive to be an internal drive in my Mac Pro. I installed it, formatted it, and I have been using it ever since. I purchased it in late 2010, and I will attempt to update this review if I run into any problems. So far, so good.

Bought 2 of these for use in a Synology NAS. One of 2 dead in about 2 months. After 2 months operating fine, got an error that the drive array was compromised by Synology OS. Was able to resync the bad drive back into the mirror array, worked ok for a couple days, then a loud clicking from the same drive.Fortunately the drive is under Seagate warranty, but dead in 2 months? The Synology NAS is on a UPS and only used for backups of 2 PCs so it does not receive power spikes, nor is it heavily used. The Seagate on-line return process is fairly painless, but who keeps original packaging after 2 months? Not me! Seagate makes you very carefully package the returned product or they can refuse the warranty replacement. I have a feeling the other original drive may die as well. I'll be sure to keep the packaging from the first replacement drive.Thank goodness I was using the Synology device that caught the error and will allow me to resync the data to the new drive once it arrives.

Good buy even though it is odd size storage (1.5 GB) compared to 1.0 or 2.0 GB. Put in my security system and has not missed a thing. Great buy for the amount of storage.

I purchased two of these drives and they were shipped as lose items in an over-sized box with minimal air pacs for padding. The pair of drives had no packaging other then the anti-static bags, they were just lose so they could bang into each other all the way to my house. The anti-static bags had holes in them from where the hard drives smash against each other while in transit.

I purchased this drive on November 11, 2009 for use with my Netgear NAS. As I write this, I've owned the drive for about a month and it has performed fine so far - no reallocated or bad sectors, etc. However, periodically I notice it making two clicks in a row - "click, click". Not sure if this is due to its being in the NAS - as opposed to installed in a computer - or what, but it seems to perform fine otherwise and the health logs in my NAS do not indicate any issues at all. The clicking is not constant, so perhaps it is because the drive is syncing with the other one or something....who knows. If the drive does fail, well, my data is mirrored onto the other drive on my NAS and backed up to two separate external USB drives AND backed up onto my netbook, and then I guess I'll deal with Seagate's warranty.With technology, you cannot have too much redundancy. :-)I purchased this drive because it is on the ReadyNAS compatible hardware list and the Seagates seemed to have fewer issues than the Western Digital drives.As far as performance, well, it seems just fine. My NAS came with a 500GB drive from the factory, and I believe it too was a Seagate. I've noticed no significant performance difference at all since installing the drive, so I'm happy as my NAS was performing fine before this drive. I'd wager a bet that performance will be more directly and noticeably affected by what interface you are using to connect to the drive, rather than the drive itself.For what it's worth, I had a 1TB USB Western Digital that I was using prior to my purchasing the NAS, and it never gave me any problems during the year I owned it.

This drive was rated by some of the PC enthusiast magazines as one of the better SATA drives. Very fast. I purchased this to replace my IDE drive that was no longer compatible with my replacement mobo. Very fast and quiet. I can't hear the HDD clicking in my case and I have silent 120 mm fans. Great purchase and well worth the price for most users. Word to the wise. If you are looking to use this as RAID0 boot partition, Windows will not support a boot partition greater than 2TB. So, if you're buying this drive for RAID0 on a windows boot drive, buy the 1TB size or smaller.

I spent two hours on the phone with Seagate after finding that there is a known firmware problem with their Barracuda hard drives that causes them to brick (not recognized by the BIOS). Seagate states that they have firmware fix to repair this known issue. They gave me a UPS label to ship it to them to have the fix installed. Fast-forward six hours - This evening at 8:30 PM, they called me back to inform me that they wanted $300 to install the fix, but would be happy to cancel my trouble ticket if I preferred. The drive sold for $200 new. Never again - I'm sticking with Western digital - they do it right.

Have had this OEM Seagate Barracuda 1TB for a couple months now, and no problem so far.Shipped with good enough packaging from Amazon. The packaging is only a box with two support at both ends of HD to hold it in place.Fortunately mine works without any problem when it arrives.

I slapped this baby inside my system and it's worked without problems now for several months. I hope this continues for years to come.

Came home and unboxed the drive, installed it and proceeded to use the Seagate Disc Wizard (Windows takes longer IMHO) and had an Internal Exception Error: "Object handle is not registered. (0x120023)". Ok so I used Windows 7 Manager to format as NTFS (tried Full and Quick) and comes up with an error that it could not be formatted. Sent this one back, hopefully I will get the next one in a couple days to see if this replacement drive is any better.

As the title of the review says, this is an excellent product at an excellent price. By "this" I mean the 1TB Seagate model "ST31000528AS-Bare Drive" which I bought here about two weeks ago for $70 and free shipping.Amazon lumps the reviews of all Seagate hard drives together. If there are differences in the quality and reliability of various models, it's hard to tell from reviews and the averaged ratings. I don't like this policy but there's not much I can do about it.Several of the reviews here complain about reliability of certain other models of Seagate drives. As you read those, beware that they may be irrelevant to the specific model that you are about to purchase.As I said, the model ST31000528AS works perfectly. It is fast, noiseless, and a steal at the offered price.

This product is everything you'd want in a drive. Quiet, and it holds tons of stuff.Having had it less than a month, it's premature to speak of reliability; however, I've purchased many Seagate drives at work over the years, and they make a good product.

Create drive at a great price. Be sure you have latest firmware from Seagate, mine already had the latest firmware and installed with no problems.

This product was easy to reformat for my Mac. I am thinking about removing the internal hard drive and replacing it with the (Seagate Barracuda 250 GB 7200 RPM SATA 3Gb/s 8MB Cache 3.5 Inch Internal Hard Drive ST3250318AS-Bare Drive). Can't beat the price for a 7200 RPM 250 Gig hard drive with a nice cache ratio as well. I would recommend this product for use.

Being a commercial photographer looking for a better way to archive, I asked a University of Kentucky Engineering professor for his opinion on hard drive brands. "Seagate" was his one and only response. So far, he's right on.

I bought this hard drive at the end of October 2010, and as of January 2011 it is dead, having conveniently waiting to die after the 30 day return window had elapsed. Thank-you, Seagate, for nothing.

I purchased a ST31000528AS 1TB Seagate hard drive and the drive had poor packing inside the box. The drive was just sliding around in the box. Naturally 12 days from receiving the drive from Amazon the drive has to be RMA to Seagate. The drive would lockup in Vista, I would reset the computer and receive no hard drive detected. I had to Power down the computer wait 30 seconds then power back on to get the drive to detect. Ran Seatools diagnostic software from Seagate and the drive failed both Short and Long DST tests. with error code A4E7EA58. I will not purchase another hard drive from Amazon.

I should have paid more attention to the reviews. I have a Windows Vista machine and installed and formatted the hard drive. I received an error and then spent time researching how to fix it. I finally gave up, returned the drive and got a Western Digital. It installed and formatted perfectly on the first try WD1001FALS.

Both units arrived in a timely fashion and were solid right out of the very solid packaging. We needed a little room to move some parts of a server file system around with externalizing everything. The 250s and a simple raid controller did the trick. Units were prepacked in Seagate shipping boxes which can be re-used for warranty shipments of any hard disk.

The reason for this purchase is all the SMART errors I was getting when using these drives in my ReadyNAS raid array. I though I was getting enterprise reliability but two (of the four) of the drives have growing SMART error counts already, not what I expected. I'm in the processes of testing the drives using the SeaTools to determine if I need to do the RMA. I do have better things to spend my time on ...
