Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA3 64MB Cache 3.5IN Internal Hard Drive
Cons:FastSmallCool design ConsNot fast enough ! The speed doesn't approaches real numbers ! SummaryThe SSD came with latest firmware. I've installed it easily in the case plugged it in the right port for 6.0G then put the right SATA cable written 6.0 G on it. Then I've installed my windows 7 on it and ran some test. The ATTO test gave me: 300 mb/s for both write and read. I've also ran crystal disk Mark and it also gives me 300 mb/s max. I Haven't been able to exceed this speed. I've double-checked cables and port to be sure and everything is in place. So I've gotta say I'm disappointed by this SSD. Doesn't live up to it's speed. You're way better of with an Intel 520 if you ask me.

Pros:The right HDD for the right price Comment:
I got this when I ordered my parts for for the same price it's on now. I like the fact that I didn't have to break the bank for a great HDD and I like Seagate, never had any issue with their stuff. |

Cons:needs a firmware update
Pros:cheap price for a good amount of storage Comment:
For 2TB on the cheap, this drive is great. It does need a firmware update out of the box to solve a noise issue, but once that's done it works just fine. Would buy again. |

Cool to the touch after writing 1TB to it in one go. Then again, I do have fans blowing against it in my case. It's really quiet, I can't even hear it writing. |

Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA3 64MB Cache 3.5IN Internal Hard Drive
Cons:* Personally Wary of Seagate HDD's
Pros:* Excellent Price Comment:
I recently purchased an SSD to replace my main HDD. As I had almost filled my other drives I was also looking to add some storage capacity for multiple backups as well as a drive to contain my secondary steam games folder (which is quite large).There were some issues in the past with Seagate drives that led to me and several friends with data loss and a lack of help or transparency from Seagate. That left a sour spot with me and I have no purchased a Seagate product in several years.Given that I needed storage for redundant backups and essentially replaceable gaming data and given also that there was not a need for very high speed transfers and that cost was a significant factor I decided to purchase this drive.I have been pleased thus far, and there have been no issues. I will update this review should anything untoward happen. |

Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA3 64MB Cache 3.5IN Internal Hard Drive
Cons:May not be as fast as WD Black drives, but ohwell this is for mass storage.
Pros:cheap, not a 5900 rpm "green" drive Comment:
good capacity vs dollar value while not being a "Green" eco type drive. About the same price as a 1TB WD Black drive, but I am able to use an SSD as a cache using Intel SRT. |

Pros:Fast drive for an HDDQuiet Comment:
It's a fast drive that I picked up on sale and I have no complaints. It's quiet and performs well in an external mount. I've had many barricudas in the past and they've last a long time (out of 6 or 7, none of them have ever failed). |

Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA3 64MB Cache 3.5IN Internal Hard Drive
Cons:None so far
Pros:Very good speed for a mechanical driveGreat capacity to price Comment:
Before trying this drive I would always used the Western Digital Black drives, I've found my new favourite. I was being bottlenecked when recording 1080p video with the WD Black with a write speed at ~110MBps but this Barracuda has resolved the issue with it's ~160MBps write speed. I have only had it for a week so I won't speak of reliability but so far I am very impressed. |

Cons:none at the moment
Pros:relatively quiet. Fast and 2TB for cheap Comment:
These performed well in terms of acoustics inside an old PC case that was known to amplify hard drive access noise. Compared to an older seagate 7200.7 that was inside the case, this drive was near silent. I have not experienced the loud head parking noise that other people have reported. |

Pros:big size and cheap price Comment:
no problem with this drive i installed it as a second drive with a ssd and got it because its fast and cheap and 2tb you cant go wrong with that |
Got it on sale, for the price it was a great deal. It can be a little loud on boot-up, but then again most hard drives are.
