Seagate BarraCuda 1TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 3.5 Inch SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 64MB Cache for Computer Desktop PC (ST1000DM010)

Was bought to replace one on my security cameras, works great.

This works really well! I just got a PC from a friend an the hard drive that was in it before (this one) was dead, I got another one only for it to be bad and then got this one. It's perfect! This is a great hard drive.

Ok cumple su función

It is a 1TB Seagate 3.5" hard drive.I bought it to test a DVR - yes, I know that there are drives designed for that use, but like I said, this is to test it and I had no other drives lying around. It does what it says and does so relatively well. I have had too many issues with Western Digital over the years and Seagate has proven to be quite reliable to me. I only got it a couple days now, so will update should it fail or encounter any issues.The packaging was very robust, though.

Works fine after formating, it makes noises on boot up and when using the drive for anything. It's worth it as a backup drive for important files if you're not using it often. I wouldn't use it as a boot drive or your main storage though

Came in the mail a couple of days ago. Kind of worried it would be a nightmare to get working, so I put it off till I had a day more or less free so I could sit on hold with tech asst if I needed to. This morning, I pulled out the old disk and reattached the cables to the new one and screwed it into the bay. I have operated with a dual boot Windows/Linux Ubuntu machine now since November 2016, and I'm really happy with Ubuntu (haven't opened Windows but one time since I installed Ubuntu). Linux runs a much better hard disk management tool then Microsoft, imho, and the Linux hardware troubleshooter began to warn me of an impending hard disk failure about two weeks ago. Well, my Dell is five years old, so I wasn't surprised. Please note: You have to be very, very careful when you order your disk from Amazon to get the right one, duh! And there seemed to be two possible choices for me, but I went with the one I thought was correct for my mother board, and figured I'd straighten things out if I ordered the wrong one. So I had the Ubuntu installation disk in the DVD drive and performed the smoke test. And man . . . everything went slick as pig snot and all for less than $60! Now all my apps are working, the install even found my printer and it works fine (printer drivers used to be a problem with Linux). Yup, even Netflix works fine (used to be a problem also). So I guess it's officially bye-bye Microsoft! Thanks but no thanks, Geek Squad. Thank you Amazon and Linux!

My computer is getting a little older, but still performing well, so I decided to do some preventative maintenance, by replacing the HDD before I had some sort of catastrophic failure that would take a day's worth of work to recover from. Since my old drive is still good, I used the Seagate Discwizard software to clone a bootable version of the original onto this one. The process was dead simple, and the new drive works great. Boot times are noticeably faster than my old drive, and I now have more storage space. (1TB vs. 640GB) Overall, a nice upgrade for an older computer without the high cost of a large SSD. I left the old drive in the computer, so if something does happen to this one, all I have to do is move the SATA cable, plug in the power cable, and I'm back in business.

It just works, great price and storage, if your not a data hoarder and just need extra storage for games and updates, this is the go to option.
