    Very reliable product.

    For a very long time and on all my computers I have been using Barracudas. I have never had a single problem.
    Buy good products from serious retailers and everything becomes simple and quiet.

    Clear, but delivery a little slow

    HDD ordered on 15.11.2017 and received on 22.11.2017. Relais colis is not called Speedy Gonzales! Anyway, package in perfect condition. HDD initialized and formatted in NTFS without any problem with the disk manager of Seven. I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product, which is very good and I'll be back soon.

    Very good.

    This 500GB HDD, with a speed of 7200rpm and 32MB of cache, was bought at the time for a price of 52€ (rounding up).
    After just 1 month of use, nothing negative to report; and it found its place to replace an out of order HDD and to install my OS.

    - Simple installation, like any other SATA HDD.
    - Fast and quiet operation.
    - Not too power hungry.
    - Sufficient transfer rate.

    As always, I'm happy to use the 'Seagate,' 'BarraCuda' brand.
