    • Excelente Disco.

    • Excelent customer service!
Style: HDD - 3.5 Inch Capacity: 6TB Color: 3.5 Inch
I bought a 6tb Seagate HDD from this seller. When I got it and installed it, I noticed when it was just sitting and not being used it would make a lite grinding noise like it was reading or writing. But I had the exact same HDD only a 4tb, and that one was very quiet. So I was a bit hesitant to put more data on this one. So I texted the support number that was on a paper in the box. Within minutes, the person verified the serial number and my order number with me and told me they would send out a replacement right away. Well, I got my replacement and it is working like a champ. So quiet and actually faster than the previous one. So I am gonna say that it was in fact defective or maybe damaged in shipping. And yes, it was a new HDD. Was very happy with the support and would feel comfortable buying from them again. A++++ ... show more

    • I've been using this HDD for a year already and no problems or defects have been identified

I ordered this HDD twice, for me and for my family member. My first one was a combined order (HDD + some other items from Amazon) and that time I was seriously dissatisfied with the packaging: the box was all crumpled due to delivery by couriers and wasn't the right size - a little box with the HDD was moving free in it. There was very little protection. But, thank God, everything was okay with the HDD itself. In my second time I ordered an HDD only and found it lying in a postal package without any box at all! Really not sure that you can call it a "Frustration free packaging". What about HDD itself. I bought this drive as an additional HDD for a laptop Dell Inspiron 3511 that has inside by default an SSD only. This model is very upgradable, so installing an additional hard drive isn't difficult even for those who has never disassembled a laptops before (like myself, for example)). The HDD fit perfectly into the SATA-slot and immediately showed up in BIOS and Device Manager. But I need to say that just after installation my laptop has made several attempts to turn on, which scared me a little, but eventually he did turn on successfully and after that worked without problems. In "This PC" folder it wasn't visible at first - to make it appear I was needed to visit the Disk Management section and to do several standard and simple actions: initialization, creating volume and formatting (detailed instruction is easy to find on the Internet). The actual 1 TB HDD size is 931.51 GB. Moving a few apps from my SSD to this HDD with "Free Move" program went smoothly, as well as a creating my OS backup on this drive. I can’t call it silent, but also I can’t say that the sounds it makes somehow interfere or annoy. I've been using this HDD on my laptop for a year already and no problems or defects have been identified during this time. ... show more

    • Works Like it should
Style: HDD - 2.5 Inch Capacity: 1TB Color: 2.5 Inch
Anyone looking to buy a laptop sized hard drive, Presumably has the skills and familiarity of their device to make the installation themselves, This device does not add any unexpected steps to the installation, which is precisely what I would have wanted. I am always cautions when it comes to ordering internal hardware like this, that my product will come DOA - Dead on Arrival, and was pleased to have no issues on this occasion, I think SeaGate must have a pretty strong Quality assurance program, and the packaging was not over the top, but did keep the drive secure. This isn't a performance hard drive; that has tons of storage. it's a low cost and efficient hard drive. That said I am using this hard drive for gaming, and it has pretty much exceeded expectation. Downgrading from a 7200 RPM hard drive, I was pleasantly surprised, and confused to see Faster Reading and Writing speeds on this Drive, (Granted I was replacing the 7200 rpm Hard drive because of Multiple failures, so likely it's performance had dipped below it's standard), This drive can consistently read and write on my PC up to 90 Mbps or 10 MB/ps. I have experienced occasional stutters in disk intensive games with this hard drive, but nothing that I wouldn't have come to expect at its price point. When downloading The drive can become over-burdened upon exceeding that speed. Steam users should Limit their download speed to 10 MB to avoid that, as ultimately it will result in Longer installation times to over burden the drive. If you have Fiber Internet want expect to be able to install full size games in minutes, You should invest in an SSD, but from my perspective this disk writes only slightly slower than my maximum downloading speeds, so It fits my circumstance like a glove. I do not use this drive for an operating system, I imagine if I did it would work as well as you would expect a HDD to. ... show more
