I just replaced my 2nd 1tb drive, both turned out to be the .11. I know this now b/c on the latest RMA which i'm packaging right now, the Seagate rep offered to change it to a .12 on the return. I lost a significant amount of work both times, although less the 2nd time because I was paranoid after the first. I work in an industry where large video and image files are the norm, and I can't spend a bunch of time burning files that I'm working on. i need reliability in my storage.This used to be an incredibly reliable company, and it's too bad that their large capacity stuff is so lousy. In the case of this one, the model# I bought didn't match what the drive detect program read it as, so it couldn't apply any of the downloaded firmware updates (even though drivedetect was showing it as needing one). The rep at Seagate told me I'd have to download it directly. When I did (I was doing all this b/c the drive was running too slowly to use) the drive was bricked and my OS told me I had to reformat. I'm getting rid of everything I own made by Seagate and never returning. I haven't had products this bad since Maxtor. Probably not a coincidence they bought them. Avoid at all costs unless you don't care about your data.

I've had many Seagate drives for years and years with no problems but recently a brand new 1.5TB SATA model lasted only a few weeks. I was very impressed with the quick and easy warranty support I obtained at the Seagate website. Seagate provides a test program to download and execute that would collect information about the drive. After submitting that info and mailing instructions, they proceeded to send me a replacement via 2-day UPS air. The replacement came on schedule with labeling to use the container for returning the old drive via UPS at their expense. I was not aware of warranty coverage that provides a replacement unit before return of the original. Nice!

I have installed it and was able to copy my old hard drive (30 GB) to this new one and add some extra storage space. It shipped fast and works great. I had to find a SATA to IDE converter though because my motherboard doesn't support SATA. I found one for $15 and it is working great.

Good value. Be aware, however, that a low-level format of the bare drive takes about 22 hours when using a USB docking station.

I've been using this for periodic backups rather than sustained use, but it works just as well. It's quiet, fast, and was inexpensive. No problems in over a month.

At the time of writing, I have around 16 x 7200.11 drives... of which 9 are the 1.5TB ones (all of which are running the latest firmware, CC1H).The 1.5TB ones are running in RAID 6 on a quality RAID controller (3ware 9650SE-24M8) and every few weeks, one of the drives goes into DEGRADED mode.In all, I've had to send back 4 dead drives and 2 which stopped being read by the controller/BIOS.The worst part of it, is that Seagate keeps feeding me the same BS over and over about how I'm part of a small minority of its customers experiencing these issues or that I must be doing something wrong with my machines or that I'm the unluckiest guy around to have several defective drives...They don't even cover my shipment costs expecting me to continue paying for these drives.I've just about had it with Seagate... the next time I experience any of the above faults, they're either paying all shipping costs and arranging pick-up OR they're paying to replace all my drives with Western Digital equivalents OR they're gonna find themselves target of a lawsuit.

Seagate is known for their Barracuda hard drives. Currently, this is the only manufacturer I would buy a drive from since several La Cie drives failed because of faulty enclosures. After I had taken out 3-4 drives out of their enclosures and trashed them (still have the drives) another La Cie drive starting acting up so I took it out of it's enclosure and discovered it was the power connector to the circuit board, it was not making contact for some reason so it kept powering off and on, I fixed it so the connectors were always in contact and the drive now works perfectly, no power issues. I never had this problem with Seagate drives and because of this they are my brand for now on. I'm a film maker and artist and can't afford to lose any data.

I installed this as a second drive in my G5 Mac computer and have been satisfied with the performance. I already replaced the original drive with a Seagate just like this one and it is running great. I really can't hear either one running other than when they spin up. The only sound that is really noticeable is when it auto-parks after it has been idle for a while, and when it restarts when I access it. I have always liked Seagate and they have always been reliable for me. The 160 GB OEM Seagate drive in the G5 finally died and it ran almost continusly for six and a half years. I am really happy to have the 1TB drives, one backing up the other. I agree with the other commenters that they're also quiet and don't seem to run too hot. I can recommend this product.

I have had this drive for only a month now -- So I cant truely speak for reliability, but this drive is fairly quick and does its work silently. I have 2 drives in my computer and its amazing when I access my second drive it sounds like a turbo jet is revving up -- the barracuda remains silent and powers through some pretty intensive tasks. For sure there are drives which are much quieter and faster (ie ssds) but those drives lack one thing... space. 1.5 TB is enough to satisfy me for the next couple years until the next best thing. I definitely recommend this drive to anyone looking to upgrade

I own my own Tech company and have worked in major DataCenters throughout the world. Not a single Mainframe, reputable server, or enterprise desktop, uses any other HDD other than Seagate. Period. Seagate invented the Floppy disk. Invented first HDD to fit in the FDD 3.5" form, first to introduce 5400rpm, 7200rpm, 10K, 15K, and so on. I have never had a Seagate HDD crash on me, EVER. One customer though had one that had died, it was a 10GB HDD from 1990. Also WD suck. They always crash. Also Seagate are the only drives that have Shock Protection.The people who rate this product negatively are obviously ID10T's. If you buy a 1TB HDD the r/w time is going to lag, read the specs on the manufacturers website. Please do not complain about something you should have investigated beforehand.Bigger Drive = slower speed.I have one of these HDD's and I only use it as a Secondary Backup Drive.You want speed go with SCSI.

I purchased this drive to use as an external backup drive so I can keep my most important data physically separated from my main computer. I am lucky in that the motherboard for my computer has an external SATA port so I was able to put this drive in a case that is designed for external SATA drives -> external SATA ports, rather than using a slower USB 2.0 port. So, consequently, by using the external SATA port I'm getting data transfer speeds just as if I was using this drive internally, and this drive is fast. I'd recommend it as it is affordable and very cost effective

My computer came with a 40 GB C drive and I wanted a bigger one as I'm running out of storage for DVD work. I used Acronis True Image to do a disk image of the old C drive, pulled it out, installed the new Barracuda and let ATI do it's thing. In about 1 1/2 hours I had a perfectly opertional C drive without having to spend most of the day downloading Windows updates, TrendMicro updates, and all the drivers that would have to be downloaded and installed. Now I have plenty of storage with the 500 GB C drive and a 650GB slave drive.Oldyeller

We needed a new hard drive and this one had a good price. We have used it for about 3 months now and it has worked fine.

This drive must be the least noisy drive i've ever own. the price was ok and the package it came in was secure and very easy to open. i just hope i don't fill this drive too quickly. for now it works great, i haven't had any issue.

With a little difficulty, the hard drive installed nicely. A cloning software would have been nice but it was the problem from the manufacturer so I bought a third party program and that did the trick

I ordered Seagate 250GB SATA drives and received them, as described. Not much to review here. In my overall experience, over the past 10 years, Western Digital and Seagate drives have the lowest failure rate, so that is what I always order.

I currently already had 2 Seagate internal hard drives for my Mac Pro behemoth. Both worked very well, except the one time about 8 months into owning the computer one of them gave me a "failing" warning in Disk Utility, so I was able to back everything up and had it replaced. Other than that, beautiful, hard working hard drives. Bought this third hard drive a few days ago for more storage space, and I haven't had a single problem with it. Installed easily, formatted like a charm, and is working just well. Quiet drive, starting-up sound for it is no real different than the other Seagate drives I own. I would recommend this to other people.

I bought it to supplement 1 tb drive in my Netgear NAS Duo network attached storage (to function in RAID1 configuration it needs to drives, but I bought it with one,also from Amazon). This drive is compatible with NAS Duo, and does the job. I liked the packaging which is environmentally friendly.
