Bof bof

Out of four disks ordered, one of them failed very quickly (in less than a week). Installed on a Synology nas, the defective disk started to make "bad sectors" after an extended smart test. Hopefully the others will not follow. In order to have a fast service, the disk was sent back to Seagate directly. Despite the speed of LDLC's service, for this kind of problem, at the level of the disks, I prefer to send back to the manufacturer, the delays are reduced, between 4 and 7 days.

is hanging by a thread...

Let's be honest, on a batch of 3 disks, all of them work (for the moment). Apparently Seagate has developed a new error correction system. This would be a good thing in theory, as long as you don't take advantage of it to cut back on your safety margin from the start! To put it simply, the disk mechanism itself has a catastrophic error rate, but the software is so clever and has so much redundancy that it can recalculate the correct value from the bits of information it has gleaned. Of course this can only be done by increasing the delay to access the data and the disk will also heat up more. I therefore strongly advise against this model, which will not last long. The error rate, which is already indecent and unworthy of a major manufacturer, will continue to climb and as soon as it goes above the level that allows correction, bad sectors will appear everywhere. What is treacherous is that it will come little by little, it will take longer and longer to react, the user will think he has a little slack and will continue to use it, and when he understands what is happening, it will be too late, his precious data will be lost. I remind you that whatever the brand, a hard drive can fail at any time and you should avoid putting your whole life on it (family photos, etc...) For this kind of stuff, it's better to use a NAS with several disks and redundancy at least of the RAID-6 type or to put them in the cloud because normally the providers of these services are supposed to guarantee reliability and make backups. And for corporate data that you can't afford to lose or leave with third parties, there are professional grade disks that have a very low error rate and high reliability (in exchange for a higher price)

        Trusted storage

        This hard drive, easily installed in an ASUS NUC 12 PRO PC, is designed to store documents and downloads in order to limit write cycles on the SSD, which is reserved for the OS.

        Used for external storage

        Purchased 10 months ago to back up various documents via an external box. Used occasionally. No problems identified at this stage. To be seen over time.

        CLEAR

        Does the job in my laptop to store my data.
        Not as fast as an SSD but sufficient for data and less expensive.

        Irrecoverable data

        I thought I was buying an SSD but it turned out to be a classic dir drive with mechanical parts. Damaged read head and unreadable disk. In short, I've just lost years of work and personal data. Not happy at all.

        Very good.

        There's nothing negative to report, it found its place in my tower to install light games.

        - Simple installation (like any other SATA HDD).
        - Fast, quiet operation.
        - Not too power-hungry.
        - Very decent transfer rate.

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

        This HDD is ideal for installing games in an entry-level casual gamer PC.

        Correct speeds, and very quiet if you plan to use it in an external box, for example!

        Very good record

        Very good record, at least at first glance. Very quiet. Good speed (tested on a PC whose performance I know). I couldn't install it in an MSI mini PC, at least not without modifying the PC's disk cage because the disk is too thick, but it's not the poor guy's fault.
        In the photo you can see it in this cage, which could hold 2 but 9mm, not 11mm. So the separator was cut out and the disc took the place of the 2 provided.

        I've been using it for a few years now and to be honest, I've had 0 problems with the speed, which is very reasonable for a mecha hard drive, and it's worth the price !!!!

        Purchased for the Freebox delta

        I needed a hard drive to store films and recordings on my Freebox delta, and this one does the job perfectly.
        Plug and play, nothing to do.
        Works perfectly

        And about ldlc fast and efficient delivery as always.

        Perfect for turning an old computer into a small home server

        I've combined it with a small SSD for the system, on a 2009 Macbook, to make a backup server.

        The drive is plenty fast enough for backups and movies, since the bottleneck is the network.

        For the time being, the drive is very quiet, so there's nothing to complain about there.

        As for lifespan, we'll have to wait and see. :)

        top as always

        I bought it to add to a nas running omv, and it was immediately recognised after being mounted on a PCI/sata expansion card, and after being formatted by the system, it is already very full and I'm completely satisfied. It replaces an "old" disk from my old laptop which, after ten years, is starting to show signs of fatigue... As usual, delivery was fast, in a slightly bulky parcel, but it was well packed and protected, and the drive was safe.

        Much too thick

        The old 2TB Barracuda drive was 7mm thick and would easily fit in a laptop. This one is 15mm thick (more than double) and won't fit in any laptop. I wonder what the point of making 2 1/2 inch drives is if they don't fit in a laptop.

        Delivered without cable and screws. The packaging was not great, the hard drive was walking around in the box with a minimum of protection. Besides, there is no official Seagate packaging around the hard drive. Strange.

        Installed with an Icy Box, does its job. I'm sure it's a Seagate product, as I've seen its life/price ratio.

        Seagate value on

        The days of 500 megabytes are long gone. As time goes by, we take bigger and bigger disks to have everything without searching in dozens of disks. It's especially because photos and videos are taking up more and more space. And then it is essential to make backup copies.

        what can I say, it's seagate!

        I just bought a new one after the same one bought a year ago to put in a NAS in RAID 1.
        Always a great product from this brand, never disappointed.

        Perfect

        Nothing to say, it's a very good deal. The price is cheap. The product works perfectly. A very good deal.

        Good drive, but defective after 2 years of light use.

        2 to, Steam & company, about to die after two years of use.
        That's a bit annoying.

        Quiet and fast

        To put in a NUC acting as a HTPC, this drive (9mm) is fast and very quiet. In a passively cooled machine, you can't hear it at all past 1m.
        I can't say how long it will last, but from experience with this brand, it should last for many years, even in 24 hour use (under Linux).

        Perfect, as usual

        The site is really professional, easy to navigate and, as always, fast delivery and excellent service. Would recommend.

        my PS4 has a second life

        after an update killed the ps4's hard drive ( I didn't know Sony was capable of such stupidity and programmed obsolescence, or even forced obsolescence ) and I probably won't buy a ps5, we'll stay on PC :)

        But otherwise this hard drive has allowed the ps4 to have its second life.

        CLEAR

        Ordered to replace the original hard drive of my PS4. Recognised immediately, reinstalled the PS4 OS without any problems, no particular problems in game.

        SEAGATE BARRACUDA 2 TO

        Despite losing my hard drive to the carrier. LDLC was very responsive. I received a new one. It works perfectly.
        Thank you
