Seagate BarraCuda 2TB, Internal Hard Drive, 3.5 Inch, SATA 6GB/s, 7.200 RPM, 64MB Cache, for Computer Desktop PC, FFP (ST2000DMZ08)

I recently bought the Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD on Amazon, and I’m very impressed. The installation was quick and easy, and it worked perfectly right out of the box. With 7200 RPM and 64MB cache, it delivers fast performance for everyday tasks, gaming, and file storage. My system feels more responsive, and I now have plenty of space for all my files. It’s also quiet and runs cool. Great value for the price—highly recommended for anyone needing a reliable internal hard drive!

A typically good quality, affordable mechanical HDD from Seagate.Since one of my old small internal HDDs decided to wave the white flag after 14 years of use & 3 different PC builds (I can't complain), and currently being 'of limited means' I needed a reliable, well-priced replacement -preferably significantly larger & faster. This 2Tb Seagate model fit the bill perfectly; a standard, well-understood and engineered drive that is bought and used by many people for good reason. The spec. on these BarraCuda drives is good -not spectacular / 'high-end', but it isn't supposed to be: they're designed to provide people with a decent-capacity, solidly specified mechanical HDD at an affordable price, and have built a formidable reputation as exactly that.Supplied in the usual box and anti-static wrapping, the BarraCuda gives a good impression, nicely built, with a natty green label. Installation is exactly as you would hope / expect and as plug & play as any internal drive can be: fix into appropriate bay, plug in leads, and, as relevant, get your OS to assign a drive letter, format & off you go. In use, I've found it quiet, with good access time and no sign thus far of any reliability issues -exactly as you would hope. Since my ancient desktop (almost a decade old now) has another very elderly HDD installed which I use purely for storage, I'll be buying another of these BarraCudas in the next couple of months as a preemptive measure and capacity / speed upgrade.Does exactly what it's supposed to do / says on the tin: a good HDD at a decent price. Recommended.

A nice, good quality, affordable mechanical HDD from a known brand, Seagate.This 1Tb Seagate model fits the bill perfectly for a standard, well-understood and well made drive and a brand that I have purchased and used previously for good reason.Does exactly what it's supposed to do and is a good HDD at a decent price. Recommended.

Bought 2 of these to replace older drives, they were easy to install and slimmer than the much smaller capacity drives they replaced. Initial performance seems ok, write speed to a clean drive isn't the fastest but acceptable. These drives are SMR, good for write once read many situations (videos, pictures, old games) but don't use them for data that requires frequent writing/rewriting. Don't put them in RAID or a NAS. Quiet and cool when running but quite loud and slow to wake up, they added a few seconds to my boot times and can briefly hang Windows Explorer when waking up. You get 7.27TB of usuable space after formatting. You only get a 2 year warranty so keep that in mind.

This hard drive was easy to install and worked immediately without any issues.

Great solution for storage, in use for around 5 months now, no issues.

I’ve always found these hard-drives to be reliable and fairly priced. This one one a an upgrade from 1tb to 2 tb and the installation was straight forward.

Bought a used one to save a buck and i have to say I am pleasantly surprised, notes said no manual or documents with it but i got manuals as well as the warranty paper, the drive was only turned on once and had 0hours of activity. While trying to carve leftover files on it nothing shown up, a clean new drive! Manufactured in sept 2024 so not even old leftover stock!Got to save a bit and it works flawlessly in my nas as an nvr drive :) working hardly for its long long to come uptime.Only using barracuda drives since i ever needed hdd-s and none have failed me ever. Most of them hitting uptimes of a year soon with no bad sectors or issues. They get around 35 to 45C in a server chassis but sometimes even 50 no issues yet.Great drives and the used ones are also worth it!
