Pros & Cons
Pros
The barracuda hdd is a slim solid external harddrive out of the box. This 4tb drive is being used to backup my documents, photos and plex videos. I have 3 other hard drives in my nas that are over 15 years and still going strong.
It’s great for ext. Would not hesitate to buy another. Tb for this price point is fantastic!
Cons
Seagate 2tb harddrive crashed a month after being installed. Disk appears as unknown - not initialized as well. Slower than my 2tb 2.
Highlights
Quality
I've had the drive in a small (home) storage server since 2021 and still running strong.
Very good for video editors and the likes.
Random writes on these things are super slow but read times are okay.
Price
8 terabytes is like infinity to me, and the price is a gift.
Shipping
No much to say, came on time and was packaged very well.
Competitiveness
Seagate makes one of the best drives out there for price to tb ratio.
