There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
One thing to note, When i installed the drive it had no active partition out of the box thus it will not show up on windows explorer until you look under disk management, devices or look under diskpart in the command prompt to see in fact that the drive is being detected but isn't active with a partition. This will make someone who doesn't know much about computers think the drive doesn't work and i've seen a lot of reviews where people say the drive didn't show up when they hooked it up and thinking it was broken. Reason being that you need to format and create a partition for the drive to become active. Here's the simple steps to make it happen on Windows 10 which is what OS i use this drive on for media storage.
01 - Open command prompt in Windows 10 by pressing Winkey+S
02 - Type CMD in search box and right click Command Prompt to run as Administrator.
03 - Now when in the Command Prompt type "DISKPART" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
04 - Type "LIST DISK" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
05 - A numbered list will now show with all the drives that are attached to the system. Simply identify the number of the new Seagate drive in this list and make sure you choose the right drive or you could wipe out data on an existing drive with data. If your unsure then you could turn your PC off and unplug any existing drives with data on them, leave your main system drive and your new Seagate drive attached to the PC. Then boot your PC back up and repeat the steps back up to this point and continue on with the listed steps.
06 - After identifying the disk number, type "SELECT DISK 0" (without quotes and also replace 0 with the number that your drive identifies with in the command prompt, i only used 0 as an example.) and hit Enter.
07 - After you've made your selection type "CLEAN" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
08 - Type "CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY " (without quotes) and hit Enter.
09 - Type "SELECT PARTITION 1" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
10 - Type "ACTIVE" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
11 - Type the following command to format the partition using NTFS and to set a label "FORMAT FS=NTFS LABEL=SG-Drive QUICK " (without quotes) and hit Enter. Remember to change the SG-Drive in the command with the drive name you want to use.
12 - Almost home now. Now you can choose what letter you want your drive to show up as in windows. Type "ASSIGN LETTER=F" (without quotes and use whatever letter you want, i used F for example, just make sure another drive isn't already using the letter you chose.) and hit Enter.
13 - Type "EXIT" (without quotes) and hit Enter. Close the command prompt.
14 - Turn your PC back off and plug back in any drives that you unplugged earlier as a way to prevent wiping the data on them by mistake.
-----> Hope this helped someone out there. Enjoy your new drive <------
Now over the years Seagate has been stepping up their hard drive game, less failures and more durability is absolutely great, since other hard drive manufactures have been on the decline of failure rates and durability, I had to go with Seagate on this one.
My last Seagate drive was a 1tb 5500 rpm drive, it was really noisy but I got that one about 10 years or so ago, so how much has Seagate improve in 10 years? A lot, seriously they did their research, this drive is really quiet, for 2tb I expected a noisy drive but its very quiet, and performs very well too, compared to one of my other computers that has a 1tb WD Blue drive, I have to say I prefer the 2tb Barracuda by a long shot, it makes very little noise and I don't think there is virtually any spin up time at all, it just works.
I would definitely recommend anyone who has been using any other drive oem to just give Seagate another try, this drive proves they did their research and designed a solid HDD, I'm sure it will last a long time too.
I will use this drive for backing up all my data and having easy access to old files. It will be great to hold on to large HD video files from an action camera without having to choose which ones to delete to make room. I'm sure a 32 gigabyte USB 3.0 flash drive dedicated to ReadyBoost will help the system have faster access time for frequently used files. Windows 10 1803 boot time was 85 seconds. After changing msconfig to use 4 processors, it went down to 62 seconds. Drive activity settled back to 0% at 114 seconds.
The review and rating will be updated if there are any problems.

Vorab: unbedingt bei Arbeiten im PC vorher erden (geht auch indem man auf den Heizkörper greift, dadurch bauen sich eventuelle magnetische Aufladungen gut ab; es gibt u.a. aber auch Erdungszubehör für umfangreichere Arbeiten in Form von Bändern), den PC natürlich komplett vom Strom trennen, nicht auf einem Teppich oder ähnlichen Untergründen arbeiten die sich statisch aufladen und einen Kurzschluss verursachen könnten und im Inneren des PCs auch nach Möglichkeit nur dort hingreifen, wo man unbedingt hingreifen muss.
Der Einbau (meine erste zusätzliche HDD für einen 7 Jahre alten PC, der bereits mit einer SSD versehen wurde und der mit 500 GB HDD Platzprobleme bekam) war überraschend einfach, ich hatte vorsichtshalber noch das Delock Kabel SATA 6Gb/s 70 cm dazu bestellt um etwaige Probleme beim Anschluss zu vermeiden, dieses ist mehr als ausreichend lang und sehr leicht anzustecken.
Praktischerweise fand die Seagate Festplatte gleich zwischen der alten HDD und der SSD (Samsung Evo 250GB, damit habe ich sehr gute Erfahrungen auch mit der 500GB Version auf einem anderen PC gemacht) Platz, ein freier Anschluss war auch noch im Gehäuse versteckt, die Seagate konnte mittels kleiner Schrauben (hatte ich noch von der SSD in Reserve) auch ganz leicht im Gehäusesteckplatz verschraubt werden, um noch besseren Halt zu haben.
Den Desktop PC wieder verkabelt und eingeschalten.
Die Festplatte wurde in der Taskleiste im unteren Bereich des Bildschirms sofort erkannt und installiert, ich habe sie sozusagen bis zum Ende der kurzen Installationszeit dann auch in Ruhe gelassen.
Kleiner Schock: am Arbeitsplatz war sie nicht sichtbar (wie gesagt: meine erste HDD die ich eingebaut habe).
Im Gerätemanager (Systemsteuerung, noch Windows 7) aber sehr wohl.
Ich habe mich dann ein wenig schlauer gemacht – hier nun die Lösung:
Einfach durchklicken durch
Systemsteuerung -
System und Sicherheit -
Verwaltung -
Computerverwaltung -
Datenspeicher/Datenträgerverwaltung -
Dann öffnet sich neues Fenster mit Volume (normalerweise NTFS wählen) -
zum Schluss eventuell noch einen Namen bzw. vorgeschlagenen Laufwerksbuchstaben zuweisen und bestätigen
Funktioniert und die neue Festplatte mit 2 TB (davon 1,81 TB freier Speicherplatz) wird nun auch im Arbeitsplatz angezeigt und kann problemlos verwendet werden. Sie ist schnell und auch praktisch um Daten von der alten HDD an einem PC der noch über keinen USB 3.0 Anschluss verfügte intern auf die neue Seagate zu kopieren bzw. zu verfrachten.
Ob Sie im längeren Gebrauch besteht wird sich weisen.
Vorerst bin ich sehr zufrieden damit und freue mich über mehr Speicherplatz :-)
Nachtrag 4/2018:
mittlerweile hat die Seagate 2 TB ihren Platz in einem neueren PC mit Hot Swap-Schacht (Einschub für Festplatten, die auch während der PC eingeschaltet ist ausgetauscht werden können) gewechselt und wurde von Windows 10 sofort erkannt. Ich bin nach wie vor zufrieden.
Nachtrag 9/2018:
Die Seagate läuft nach wie vor problemlos, es gibt keinerlei Schwierigkeiten sie als Laufwerk zu erkennen, der Datentransfer und Sicherungen funktionieren tadellos und extrem schnell.
Sollte Ihnen meine Rezension bei Ihrer Entscheidung und eventuell auch beim Einbau weiter geholfen haben, würde ich mich über ein “hilfreich” per Klick sehr freuen!
O produto chegou no prazo combinado. Trata-se de um produto de fácil instalação e ele não é barulhento.
Se notan las 7200 rpm. En mi caso lo usé para clonar un disco antiguo y desde el primer momento se ha notado la mejora en los tiempos de lectura acceso y escritura.
Destacar el servicio al cliente. El primer disco no era reconocido por el hardware, pero en 24 horas me enviaron un disco nuevo y recogieron el antiguo. Como digo un excelente servicio postventa.
