My LaCie dual drive enclosure hard drives failed. They were 2 1TB drives running in RAID 0 to provide 2 TB or starage. These drives allowed me to upgrade to the same storage bvut have dual redundant drives so if one fails these is a way to recover. These Seagates installed easy. All I needed to do is set the drive to RAID 1 and plug it in, open disk management and create the partition and format. These Seagate drives are very reliable as the previous pair were over 5 years old and were used constantly being on about 15 hours per day. After hte 1st, I may buy two more for my other LaCie Quadra.

I use these in the backup volume on my server. The onboard controller boards are kind of delicate. The controller card will go bad before the internal disks start to show errors. The last ones I bought lasted 3 years while some older drives of other brands are still going strong. That said, these drives perform as promised so it's a good value at this price.

Not a fan of the Seagate. Since the mid-90s, I've had bad experiences with Seagate hard drives. Over the years, I've learned to trust Maxtor & WD moreso than Seagate. Anyways, I was badly in need of 2 drives that would hold mass amounts of storage data that technically could be recovered by download if ever lost. (I'm using them for my Wii and my XBOX). And the price was right: $95 shipped. So I finally caved and bought the 2 of them. They're currently working alright. No real problems so far...
Drive arrived quickly and was packed very well. No problem with installation or formatting. Only had it installed a short time so cannot speak to reliability yet but in past this model has performed well for me.

This hard drive is one of the best hard drives I've ever had gotten. This hard drive was a steal because there are 2tb hard drives that are more expensive than this one. I am suprised how quiet this product is, espically since this product is coming from ebay. I would definitely buy another one if this product were to go back in stock.

Considering this is old technology it is still very fast with hard drives made today. I would say Seagate drives are almost as dependable as their Western Digital counterparts and are a cost effective consideration. I use them for NAS and security DVR applications and they do the job nicely. If Seagate offered a better warranty they would receive 5 stars instead of 4.

I've been using Western Digital Hard drive for years, they were always reliable and last long but sometimes a little noisey, so I decided to try Seagate, bought a 2TB for the work I use [Graphic Art wise.] and so far not a peep, this a good drive for the price and I highly recommend it.

I installed this drive on my computer and transferred my operating system to this drive. I have always trusted Seagate and i will continue to use their product line.

After getting bit bad by Western Digital's "Green" drives I've gone with Seagate ever since. Reliable, stable, affordable - these make great mass storage drives. I'm sure WD doesn't have all trash drives but they are not green. Unlike WD, the Seagate Barracuda can sustain streaming throughput without error or going offline.

While I'm not too picky about brand names usually, I decided that going with an actual brand name instead of white label has paid off as a better choice. This has been a great storage drive and it accesses very fast. Only on USB 2.0 here and still plenty fast to stream archived material to the OS drive in a reasonably quick fashion. Transfer rates for just moving files was about 26 MBps but keep in mind that my motherboard specs are slightly old at this point and my bus speeds aren't what current rates typically are so take that with a grain of salt. I still say this was a total steal and very solid and generously spaced hard drive.
