Purchased these on the end of September 2008 as replacement for my old 500GB WD RE2. Since that time they run in RAID6 (Areca ARC-1231ML controller) 24/7 without any problem (still keep my fingers crossed however) but even if 2 drives of 4 are dead I will still have all my data intact (that's benefit of RAID6). Drives run very cool and quiet, the only time you can hear scary noise coming from them is when you power the computer on but this is not a problem. Remember - all hard drives fail soon or later, and the only way to have more redundancy is to use at least RAID1 and do regular backups on different media. Will buy next drive soon to expand storage with additional 1.5TB (also very easy with hardware RAID controller). With these drives I can have 16.5TB total storage for my favorite high-def movies (CoolerMaster Stacker 101 case allow you to install 12 drives and you can put 1-2 more for OS inside 5" drive bays). 5 years warranty. Low power consumption. Best price/megabyte.

I just built a 8 drive array with these guys and am getting over 800MB/s write throughput with them. They're also quiet and don't seem to run too hot. What more can you ask for?

Is this HDD the best on the market? To me, yes.Not only is the "the Seagate® Barracuda® 7200.12 drive--the 12th generation" company's drive.The drives with capacity multiple of 500 GB are build with 500 GB/platter.There are only three companies producing 500 GB/platter att:Western Digital, Seagate, and Samsung.Seagate's drive, as long as remember, comes with a 5 years warranty.

I recently ordered this drive. I was weary of the quality from some of the negative reviews, but decided to try it out. BIG MISTAKE!!!! The drive arrived in good visual appearance but as soon as I tried to format it, using both windows and seagate's own software, it threw sector errors and refused to format.

The Seagate Baracuda that I bought works just fine. It's fast and quiet and holds a lot of information (1.5T). Since it's SATA there's no worry about jumpers. Just be careful with the cable, which can be a little delicate. The price is excellent. The official reviews were also very good.

The drive works great under XP, but has severe problems with Vista. I now own 4 of these drives and it took a while to figure out why I was having problems. I first started using the drives under Vista and they seemed to work well, but suddenly Vista started freezing up and after a power off and reboot Vista chkdsk couldn't fix the drive. I finally moved it over to an XP machine and the chkdsk fixed it with no problem. It took quite a bit of experimentation to find out that if the drive is more than 2/3 full (more than a TB written on it) when vista tries to deal with it Vista locks up and trashes the drive (happens in both 32 and 64 bit Ultimate Vista). XP has no problem whatsoever with the drive, so for now I have them in the XP machine and can't use them for video streaming under Vista which is why I originally got them.

I purchased 2 of these drives to install in my D-Link DNS-323 Network Attached Storage device that I also purchased from Amazon. The two work great together.So far I have been these drives in the DNS-323 for a month and have had no problems. Overall, I am quite happy with my purchase. See my review for the DNS-323 for details on the performance benchmarks that I got when using these drives in the NAS device.

Drive failures on the Seagate 7200.11 family have been around 20-30%. Totally unacceptable for this kind of product. Read the reviews on Amazon dot com site or NewEgg dot com. For every excellent review there are 1/3 of very bad reviews with DOA (dead on arrival) or failures after a month. If you care about your data do not buy this drive even if you are gong to use it in RAID configuration as it is known to cause RAID volumes to break as more than one drive would fail at the same time. Search on Google for the Seagate model or look at the Seagate Community Forums, they are on fire! Seagate response? None, non-existing support!!!

This product offers a very good price/storage ratio. However, it suffers from a crippling defect wherein the drive will pause for several seconds and refuse to answer any commands, typically accompanied by a loud "thunk" noise. This happens more often under heavy disk load, making this drive suitable only for storage purposes and not for any important data such as an OS or applications.Per Seagate, this is normal behavior and any data loss associated with this behavior is to be expected. Would not purchase again. Look for a Hitachi or a Samsung.

I have other Seagate hard drives and they are great. They preform well and last long. I love this one because I needed some large storage space and this filled my bill. I also like the warentee that comes with it.I would highly recomend this brand to anyone who is looking for an extra HD for storage. Also doing business with Amazon.com was a pleasure. Thanks

This drive gives you a lot of space for the money. So far I have had no issues with this drive and it has performed well. However, there are some known faults with this drive that cause it stop working. There is a firmware update available to fix the issue but the update process has also caused the drives to stop working. I suggest doing some research on the issue before deciding to buy.

I purchased this drive for my Drobo. Now going on 90 days without a problem. Limited noise comes from 4 of these drives that populate my Drobo. Once thing is how hot these drives run. I have resorted to placing my Drobo in a ventilated rack system to maximize the cooling of the 4 closely positioned drives.

I am only using this drive as a backup and have been very happy with it over the past month. I have it docked in a Thermaltake BlacX eSATA Hard Drive USB Docking Station with the Serial Ata To External Serial Ata Dual Port Adapter and only have the drive on when I perform manual backups each week. The drive is quiet and has performed solidly for the approximately 40-80 hours of use. I would recommend at this time. If anything changes, I will update this review.

I bought four of these drives from Dell to put in a Drobo drive array thingy. Worked fine for 24 hours, then I started seeing the unit go into "data protection mode" and flash lights indicating drive failure. This has happened three times in four days now. Once it took eleven hours to reconstruct the data that had been on the "failed" drive.Anyway, it now seems there are lots of people having problems with this drive, and the company that makes the Drobo enclosure now has a prominent notice on its support page stating:"Data Robotics has temporarily disqualified the use of the 1.5TB Seagate drives at this time due to reliability issues with the drives.Pending resolution of this matter by Seagate, Data Robotics will re-qualify these drives for use in Drobo."I'm going to call Dell and to try to return them all.

this is my 3rd drive and i'm so happy it didn't fail at least not yet. you will get 1396 GB out of it. of course you will need sata data cable because it's an OEM drive. whats in the box? only the drive in sealed bag and the bill. so don't look for any cables or screws because the isn't any.the installation was easy done in 5 minutes. thankfully my drive wasn't from the effected drives so no firmware update was needed.

I was afraid of buying this disk due to previous reports on firmware problems, but the firmware upgrade at Seagate's site excluded the range of SNs to which my three units belonged. So far the disks have performed flawlessly in a RAID5 setup (Synology DS508 host), about a month already. I understand that the early firmware fixes implied on a slower speed than what this drive is physically capable of, however that's not an issue on a home NAS, since the bottleneck is clearly the network connection.

Used in the hdx-1000 mediatank. Installation went smooth. My wife thinks the harddrive makes too much noise however speed is very good.

Well, the disk it self i very good one, almost not noise and not too heavy. The only thing that i dislike is that in Vista(professional) at least 32bits, i did not find yet drivers in order to make it work as just one disk and not have to partitioned it. I think is going to be release in near future. I don't use it in RAID and works great

I use this hard drive predominantly for photo storage and it is very responsive and quick. I am very satisfied with this drive and its humongous storage capacity for such a reasonable price.IMPORTANT: KNOW HOW TO FORMAT A DRIVE BEFORE YOU BUY IT!This drive does not come formatted and Windows cannot recognize the full capacity on its own. You have to download the Seagate SeaTools and DiscWizard to be able to do that. It's very simple, and takes less than 5 minutes, just be aware that its not as simple as plug and play.

I'm bought three of these for use on my dns-321 (two for raid 1 and a spare to rebuild if one fails). After updating the firmware on all three drives (from sd17 to sd1a) and on the dns-321 (to support the 1.5T drives), I've had no issues. I was a bit worried about buying these, but they are running fine.I got these from Tiger and they shipped them without packing material so the drives were banged up. What am I gonna do except try them out and hope for the best? Those packers at Tigers are idiots.I also have a dns-323 that I will use once they get the firmware out for the 1.5T drives. If my seagates hold up for another month, I'll buy two more of these drives.Gary

Installed this to replace a smaller hard drive for storing video data. Have had no issues, as other have stated, with playing any of these. They are anywhere from less than a meg to full length movies. They are in a variety of formats: AVI, WMV, MPG, ASF and DAT files. Also most music files too. Very pleased with the increased storage size and plan to start replacing other smaller drives now.
