Pros & Cons

Pros

Seagate hard drive works great. Sequential reads/writes and 700ish iops. Runs well on ubuntu 20.

The exos x16 is the one to go for. These are helium-filled, 9 platters, and have none of the drive bay limitations enforced on the ironwolf pro and ironwolf models. They are cheaper per terabyte than ironwolf drives. Perfect for your nas implementatio...  Read More

No problems or reportable errors after 1. The drives are brand new, still factory sealed, and we’re packaged well.

Msi desktop is whisper quiet. Larger drives - even across manufacturers - seem to perhaps have the servos hard-mounted to the frames, because i hear some thudding as the heads move across tracks. The only mild complaint is that it's a tad bit noisy.



Cons

Received cyclic redundancy error. Seagate's warranty website is non functional. I prefer to wait than risking failure in the future.

Bought this 6/24/22 but could not install until today, 9/2/22. Was recognized by disk management in windows 10 but would notinitialize. Other than the lack of valid warranty, the x16/x14 are on par, which is disappoint.

Quality


This one has great specs and comes with a 5 year warranty.


Works perfect, no issues, good read and write speeds, overall very satisfied.


Make sure you register it to get your warranty and to make sure it’s not an oem model.


I dropped them in my terramaster d5 300c and they are purring.

Price


Great cost per tb, and is sufficient for media and game development.


Would love ssd to get to this cost range per tb.


Considering the pricing available on other enterprise class drives at the time of purchase $280 for an 18tb drive was not bad.

Shipping


I have ordered a number of seagate drives from quickdealstores and product has always been as-ordered and in good working order...  Read More

Packaging/appearance


Drives arrived well packed and simply wrapped in esd bags.

Competitiveness


Also, quickdealstore are the best sellers i've had the pleasure of doing business with.


It was 10's of percents worse failure rates than the nearest competitor.


There is always some concern when shopping for "deals" you run the risk of counterfeit or "used" products but these were legit,...  Read More
