Bought as a replacement drive for my media server to replace an aging WD that had started the click of death and only reporting occasionally, this was quickly detected and setup. Worked flawlessly attached to a Linux system. Easy to install and format, I've used and installed probably hundreds of barracuda products and that was a big reason why I decided to get this brand for my personal PC. That and at the time of purchase it was priced very well per Gb. At the time of review this drive is about six months old. It runs pretty quiet except when actively transferring data and even then it's audible but not loud. Transfer speed is decent and as you'd expect for a sata drive (~6Gbps) Overall this is great value for money. Especially considering the amount of time and effort it would take to replace this data.

I've een using this for several months and works exactly as expected, it's quiet, and adds plenty of storage to my PC, amd the speed is plenty for me, no issues copying large 10gb+ files over and doesn't take too long.

The Seagate ST8000DM008 BarraCuda 8TB is a standard 3.5-inch internal hard drive designed for mass storage needs in desktop computers. In this unbiased review, we will assess its various aspects to provide a comprehensive overview. **Storage Capacity (4/5):** With a whopping 8TB of storage space, the BarraCuda offers an abundance of room to store your files, games, and media. It's an excellent choice for users who require extensive storage for large media libraries, backups, or extensive data. **Performance (3/5):** The BarraCuda 8TB is primarily designed for storage purposes, so it's not as fast as SSDs or high-performance hard drives. It operates at 5400 RPM, which is a bit slower compared to 7200 RPM drives. While it provides decent performance for sequential data transfers, it may not be the best choice for tasks that demand quick access times or frequent data retrieval. **Reliability (4/5):** Seagate, as a well-established manufacturer, has a history of producing reliable storage devices. The BarraCuda series is known for its durability and dependability. However, like all mechanical hard drives, it is subject to wear and tear over time, and there is always a risk of failure. It's advisable to have proper backups in place when using any mechanical drive for important data. **Noise Levels (3.5/5):** The BarraCuda 8TB is relatively quiet during regular operation but can produce some noise, especially when accessing data. This may not be an issue in a desktop setup but could be noticeable in a quiet environment. **Installation (4/5):** Installing the BarraCuda is a straightforward process. It utilizes the standard 3.5-inch form factor, making it compatible with most desktop systems. Users with basic knowledge of PC hardware should have no trouble fitting it into their setup. **Value (3.5/5):** In terms of cost per gigabyte, the BarraCuda 8TB offers a reasonably good value, especially for users who require a large amount of storage space. However, it's important to remember that the price of SSDs has been steadily decreasing, and if you value performance and responsiveness, you might consider investing in a smaller SSD for your primary storage and supplementing it with a secondary HDD like the BarraCuda for mass storage. **Conclusion:** The Seagate ST8000DM008 BarraCuda 8TB is a capacious internal hard drive, well-suited for users with substantial storage needs, such as media enthusiasts, content creators, or those who require extensive backups. It offers reliability, straightforward installation, and decent value in terms of storage capacity. However, it is not the fastest drive on the market, and its performance may not meet the expectations of users who prioritize speed and responsiveness. Consider your specific storage requirements and performance expectations before deciding if the BarraCuda 8TB is the right choice for your computing needs.

I ordered 2 of these 8TB drives. In Crystal Disk Mark one drive only has half the speed of the other and Steam didn’t seem to like the drive because it acted very slow with it. Steam works perfectly on the other drive. Now I only left one star off because I can still use the other drive for media storage as I don’t seem to notice the issue when in use in this manner. The problem drive is slower but not a big problem when it comes to photo, video and music storage! I think it somehow got passed QC as probably a mistake. Running a smart test does not show an issue and other test show that it is a good drive but just a little slower. Now the good one is awesome. I use a 1TB NVME PCIE gen 5 drive as cache for it and the damn thing just works. I didn’t buy it for speed but I did buy it for capacity and it has all I need. This is why I have a dedicated cache drive for it. Now it’s like I have an 8TB drive running at PCIE gen 4 speeds. Awesome if you ask me!

Definitely a SMR drive. 4Tb 256mb cache 5400rpm. I installed around 1Tb of games in one day and it was noticeably slow. The drive needs idle time to re-write itself and is hidden by firmware. This drive frustrates me because it will give you 100-200Mb/s transfer speeds then drop to 50Mb/s Its just not consistent. I actually enjoy watching data transfers and this drive makes me crazy. Its better at reading than writing. It performs better than an external drive which was the purpose to replace using 4Tb external drives with a faster internal drive. This technically is faster as anticipated. 5400rpm is a little slow. 5900rpm seems a little better for a "chill" drive that isn't a system drive. With 128Gb SSDs as cheap as they are there is no reason to be booting off this drive. Its for videogame storage. Instead of 80Mb/s consistent like my external drive this one bounces around wildly between 50Mb/s and 150+ Mb/s It has a distinct not doing what you want it to feeling. I feel like the firmware needs to work with the OS instead of presenting itself like a normal HDD. Nothing against the technology I actually wish there was a SMR HDD driver so I could click a button and pause shingled mode, or set a larger CMR buffer while I have lots of empty space in line with my usage, etc. This tech will not age well. They need a SMR HDD Driver so you can select options. Until then stick with CMR. Letting the drive idle makes it faster while it does housekeeping algorithms. Just wish I knew what it was doing or had any control over it. I knew what was getting into at this price for 4 Terabytes but sheesh.
