Pros & Cons
Pros
It's cheaper to buy cameras with a nvr and not dvr,buy package pay 100 buy separate and 2tb for under 50 bucks. Direct replacement for older 1tb drive. Installed to replace 3 500gb drives in my desktop system.
Cons
After searching around, it appears that these drives are generally considered low quality. At 15 days of use they start to lose life and the performance is horrible. Was not used out of the norm either. Very bad reliability.
Buy drives from reputable vendors. Seagate offers no warranty. Don't waste your money or time.
Highlights
Quality
I use these drives for directv dvr's, very quiet, hardly any failure in the last few years.
Have purchased several of this model, used for external storage in docking station.
Had no problems and it wasnt removed due to failure.
Their own test fails, cannot even re-format it from cmd.
Price
Awesome price fit great in my nvr

Shipping
It arrived working, installed easily (all hdds do), and is trucking right along.
I purchased this on jun 7, 2023, arrived quick.
Received the drive almost overnight priority shipping!
Competitiveness
I only trust seagate and western digital as the leaders in hard drive storage.
