Pros & Cons

Pros

I am completely satisfy, just in time, excellent condition well protected package no issues. The speed & capacity are great, and the 5 year warranty makes it worth paying more for the pro version.

The drive runs cool and quiet, and through a pcie sata port adapter copying at 200mb/sec. Rpm gives me no latency issues. Still have about 4 terabytes left to datum.



Cons

After 3 years the hdd fail and sent it back for a replacement. Never again seagate, never. In my opinion, they ship it through fedex and fedex dont care about packages, they probably drop it several times.

    I just got this drive and it took me 4 hours to install it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I wont bore you with the details of all the steps i took trying to install this drive through windows calling customer support installing seatools for windows which they requested which crashed windows in both normal and safe mode installing bootable seatools which uses command prompt but will go to the solution that worked for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Also before installing the disk take a picture of the front panel customer support will not talk to you without the serial number and the only way to get to it once the disk is in the computer is through seatools which crashes your windows

    As far as clicking sounds they are there not too loud but you can hear them
