This drive replaces the original 160 GB drive. I also had an external 500 GB for data. Now I partitioned this 1TB into 3 partitions so all is on one drive. The really great feature is that if the operating system has to be done back to factory standards, the partitions are not affected and you still have all of your data.Price was also the best I could find

I have a lot of projects which are on different hard drives and this is the drive that I always buy. I use an external bay that allows me to use these internal drives through my sata connection. I am very happy with the drive and def recommend it.

We purchased two of these. I certainly did my homework on this purchase investigating both Seagate and Western Digital 1.5 TB drives. These Seagates arrived a few days ago and I was fully prepared to send them back based upon other bad packaging reviews and other infant mortality reviews here.But these arrived in a large box which was full of those little air-bag pillows. Tucked into the pillows were two individual, sealed, factory boxed drives. The drives themselves were properly packaged inside their individual boxes using Seagate's regular plastic end-cap suspension. The drives were factory sealed in plastic anti-static packaging. So I have no beef with the shipping or packaging. The drives showed no special OEM or other descriptions and in fact are identical (except for specifications) to many other Seagate 7200 series drives we have here.The drives were immediately mounted, initialized, quick-formatted and tested. We found no anomaies. The drives are almost silent in operation and have shown no errors or mal-function in continuous running so far.

Seagates have always been my favorite, with WD drives failing after one year and Seagates going strong for over six. This one shows WRITE (that's write, not read) speeds sustained at over 100 MB/s, which means transferring data is a snap. That's a 7GB DVD in about a minute! Anyway, I've had it for a few months, and although I'm down to less than 1GB left, it's still going strong and fast as ever.System: Windows 7 x64, AMD Athlon II X2 245, LG 24X SATA DVD +/- RW

Seemed like a deal as far as Gigabytes per dollar and thought Seagate was the most trustworthy. This is the first drive I've ever bought that arrived DOA. On power up, there was a telltale click (the click of death?) every five seconds or so. Whole system went dim on first power up. After reboot, it was resistant to formatting etc.. Refused a full format but finally accepted a quick format but then it just disappeared off the radar entirely. Long Diagnostic with Seagate's latest version of SeaTools revealed that the drive was indeed a dud. Very disappointed in Seagate. When these companies get to the top, they always seem to turn to cutting costs to maximize profit and I wouldn't doubt that this is what happened here (especially with this economy.) In this case, I believe it was at the price of their previously fine reputation. If Seagate cleans house and goes back to an emphasis on quality, perhaps, someday, I'll trust Seagate again. For now, though, I'm replacing it with a 2TB Western Digital as the other one of those that I have seems to be just fine so far (6-8 months.) First Toyota, now Seagate. Stop the unreasonable cutting of costs already. There are some things you just can't skimp on.

I basically got this drive for extra storage to round out my HP MediaSmart Home Server. It has a total of 5.44 TB formatted using the Windows Home Server Software. All of my interal drives are this size and all are the brand Seagate.The ease if installation was a piece of cake... very easy to do.The overall performance and quality of this drive is as expected. I never buy new (if possible) but Used Like New. You get a better deal on the item. I would recommend this brand of hard drive to anyone needing a hard drive for a computer or server. You can't go wrong. The noise is not even there... They all are so quiet. The only thing I hear are the fans from the server.I love the price. You won't be sorry for investing in this brand. Highly recommended.

I purchased this drive as a media storage drive. Since then I have moved games to this drive and have not had a single problem. High speed, quiet and low heat.

There isn't much to review here. Removed from box, connected to computer and the drive was Dead On Arrival. However, Amazon made it very easy to return.

Put this in my 2007 Intel iMac to replace the now "tiny" 250 GB drive that came with it. Data transfer rates seem good and it's nice to have the additional storage. No more external drives for music. The noise level is about the same and temperature seems to be under control ~38 C. I'm happy with it.The packaging wasn't extensive, but seemed to work. I think most of the drive failure problems people have are from being kicked around in shipping. I normally use Fedex to ship drives when ordering components, let the case and power supply, etc. ship by ground, but sensitive items by Fedex. Their boxes are usually less mangled. This was via Amazon Prime, and the 2-day UPS box was in good shape. It just had the OEM drive contained between two plastic, form-fitted inserts. Apparently good enough, but it's only been running for a couple of weeks. Word to the wise, keep your old drive as a backup for a as long as you can and at least a month. If the new drive is going to fail, it's probably going to happen in the first 30 days.

Although packaging was a bit sketchy (read those reviews), the hard drive worked as expected right out of the box. Good product at a great price.

While I must admit that I've had loads of problems with this particular model of Seagate drive (4 DOAs from another vendor and one that died after about 3 months of use), I must say that Amazon appears to have listened to complaints about packaging of OEM drives. Mine arrived in it's static bag and properly secured using the plastic inserts that you find in retail packages. Much better than the packaging at the other online company that just used bubble wrap (and often not enough of it).About the drive. When it's working, it's a good drive. It's pretty quiet and the price for the capacity is still pretty good. Given the checkered reliability record, I recommend having a spare drive on hand for any NAS/RAID array that you may be sticking these into. Seagate is good about the RMA process (you still have to pay to ship the dead drive to them, but they pay the return shipping) in general, but to be without the drive for a week or more can be dicey in a RAID array.

This new hard disk is to replace my desktop computer which has only 40gb. So far it works excently.

I have owned a number of Seagate drives over the past 5 years - they are all still running and error free. Seagate is doing it right.

Received item and withing a day or so had the click of death. Yes..I did update the firmware per seagate site.....but the unit without being accessed...started to click when powered on. Totally froze the computer unless I unplugged the power.I never..never..had a hard drive fail like that so fast...but I know I am not the only one with this same problem. Too bad.I order a replacement..hopefully...this one will work longer.

Great HDD for me. I didn't have to install new firmware or anything and it has been working great for several weeks so far. I use it mostly to store and edit large-sized 720p and 1080i video captures. Can't beat the price of under $45 shipped when this was a lightning deal. I don't know about longevity yet, but at this point I'd highly recommend this drive.

Overall, it seems to be a decent drive. It should be noted that you just get the drive-no cables or set up software. In my case, I bought one to put into a drive enclosure, so this was not a problem.

I received a working hard drive that was wonderful for a few months. Then it died, but it was just a firmware issue on four of the five I bought (ranging from 120gb to 500gb) so some repairs and mailing I got back a working harddrive.All of the harddrives I have sent in for repair came back and failed within months of use. No replacement offered, blackballed as out-of-warranty. I thought at some point maybe this was all in my head, or maybe it was handling but slowly but surely every harddrive I sent in for repair has failed shortly after. So either there is some severe mishandling or Seagate makes a terrible product. As I'm not alone in this (from the reviews) remember that you pay what you get for...and with the cheap price you get a resounding: shotty terrible hardware plagued with firmware issues, joke warranty, poor handling procedures by the *repair* techs...and the sense that your data will never be safe again. The five Year or even three year warranty seems to be out of warranty after a year? How strange.Buy something else, anything else...but remember they own maxtor too so I wouldn't really recommend them either.Four Failed Harddrives out of five bought is a bad track record. You've wronged me bad, Seagate. And may never get me or any person I meet back as a customer. My four Harddrives, all failed after about 1000 hours total of use. On the dot.

great internal harddrive that self-recognizes so no need to set jumpers. It was pre-formatted so I saved time there too. It worked seamlessly to become the C: boot drive for a Windows 7 Professional new PC build using an AMD quad-core CPU.

Having already own a dozen Seagate drives in the past, this latest drive exceeds all my expectations. My thanks again to Amazon for delivering such an excellent product and even more superbly excellent and fast service/shipping. I ordered this on Thursday and unbelievably received it on Monday. It just doesn't get any better.12/22/2010Just received another 500GB SATA drive to upgrade a HP DC7100 desktop purchased from my workplace. The poor unit only had a 40GB SATA. Good thing it was another Seagate drive. Using Seagate"s disk wizard it took me less than 30 minutes to clone the smaller drive onto the bigger one. My son is so happy that he can now load Adobe Photoshop and Flash CS3 with room to spare. Hopefully it will last for some time or else I will get a 1 or 2 Terabyte unit. Great drive.

It made my Mac Mini Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz, OS X.6.4 (Build 10F569) much faster. I measured 80 MB/sec read/write speeds. You may, or may not, get the same results but my Mac Mini is much faster, and if you're mechanical then go to ifixit.com and look at their videos to see how to install the hard drive.
