  • Highly rated drive, hopefully will perform as stated.
The drive came as promised in manufacturer's box. Easy to install if you have done it before. Does not come with any initializing or partitioning software, so that has to be done by user. So far the drive is quiet and functioning as expected.

  • Works perfect!
At first I was sent a faulty drive but after returning it and getting a new one, the new one ended up working perfectly! The support for it was great and the shipping was very fast!

  • Must fornat
Drive is fast and reliable but of course must be formatted.

  • Seems to be brand new, February 2019
Like the title states. Why buy. A used drive when you can get a brand new one for some bucks more. If course it depends on your usage but for me it was a no brained since I use it for a NAS. I would recommend the newer style of 3gb drive that is a a little slower but uses only half the electricity. I noticed this to late. Nonetheless I am satisfied with the drive so I ordered 3 more to replace all of the drives in my NAS. THRe “old” ones were seafarers also and gave up after only 20.000 hours. I would expect more but since I do t really know were they came from I can’t tell. They came with the Lenovo NAS. ... show more

Very good HDD

  • Great price and capacity, but middling performance
These performed admirably for a standard harddrive, but couldn't hold a candle to some of the higher performance ones on the market. The best use for these drives in longer term storage, or scratch disks, where they don't need to be fast performing. Of course SSDs are the getting cheaper and this might be a moot point now, but it's hard to beat a HDD for long-term use. These would not be suitable for a boot drive in any modern configuration. ... show more

  • Amazing!
I have never had this much storage on any computer before and love it so much! I built my very first computer and my techie friend suggested this hard drive and I’m so soooo glad I got it. It works really well, never had any issues with it and is still going strong a year later!

  • Do not buy unless you're ok with risking a return
*As an update: I am further justifying my 1 star review because Seagate's technical support was absolutely terrible. Every e-mail I sent was responded to by a different person who seemed to have no knowledge of any previous communications. I found myself repeating the same things, being given the most ridiculous "support" (how to initialize a drive), and essentially received no help or explanation for why my system couldn't support the drive. Seagate offers a few exceptions for compatibility, but they say if you are using Win7 or newer, initialize GUID partition table, and are using it as a non-bootable drive, it'll work (exactly my setup). The cherry on top, after all of this with Seagate's support and I tell them I've returned the disk, they respond with, and I quote, "The drive is compatible with all systems." smh So I sent the 3 TB back to Amazon. Now I have a 2 TB drive for the price of a 3 TB, but at least it works. --------------------------- Honestly, I had no idea there is a major compatibility issue with drives over 2 TB. Unfortunately, my system was one of those that cannot use a 3 TB drive. I had to return this, but I am still writing a product review and rating 1 star because I feel this issue should be given as a disclaimer in the product description or better described at Seagate's site. After receiving the drive and installing, only ~750 Gb of the drive were available to format. I contacted Seagate's support and they sent me some material about drive compatibility beyond 2 TB... I read through all of that which suggests if I have Windows 7 or later and am using the drive as a non-bootable drive, it should work. Perfect, except it doesn't work. Then a SATA controller driver update was suggested, I researched the latest driver for my system and installed it. After restarting, the drive was not recognized by Windows at all. Next, Seagate support wanted me to install a DOS bootable version of Seatools and to send screenshots of the results. Only problem there, the .iso provided could not be mounted to a bootable USB. While waiting for a response....I decided to return the hard drive. Look, if it were free, I would expect some problems, but I paid $100 for this. I expect it to work out of the box or at least be provided with a detailed limitations listing so I realize I'd be better buying a 2TB to save the hassle. Four days into troubleshooting, I shouldn't have to figure out why tools aren't working which may or may not be able to tell Seagate why my new drive is not compatible with my workstation. The take-away here, don't just look at your PC manufacturer's specs and your operating system to determine compatibility. If your PC comes from the days before UEFI, if your PC was built before Win7 existed, if you have an Intel SATA controller, or if you have certain RAID controllers for your SATA controller, I recommend you SERIOUSLY consider purchasing a 2TB drive instead. ... show more
