very good 4 to hard drive ( to convert to GPT )

Seagate is a good brand of HDD, I have several and they all work well. the particularity of this hard disk is that they makes 4 to. This disk is of origin in format MBR, but be wary on Windows in your management of disk the format MBR takes maximum partitions of 2 to max! So the hard disk is divided into two partitions one of 2 to and one of 1.6 to ( yes the 4 to is only 3.7 to in the end ) So to solve this problem and to have only one partition of 3.6 or 3.7 to, it will be necessary that you convert your hard disk in GPT this format allows to create more partitions and especially to have a partition beyond 2 to.

Do not buy

I ordered it for a gaming pc once, after 2 months and 600GB on it, it failed, I trust Seagate again, and it just released today with 700GB of data this time. In all, a loss of 1500GB. Always the same operation before it drops, clicks, reboot and error system disc not found, etc... I hate it, it only happens once in 1000, but it's already huge that one person in a thousand loses all their data! I'm going to switch to 2to and again to Seagate, I've had good feedback. If he releases, I'll go to the concu, thank you goodbye!

        Reliable and durable

        I use this hard drive mainly via a USB dock for storing my data. It has always been recognized without any problem and works in a stable and reliable way. Transfers are good for my use and I have never encountered any data loss or failure. A solid and durable product that I recommend for long-term storage.

        Perfect for RAID and storage

        Top-notch in my desktop PC, for storage in RAID Mirror!
        Packaging still top-notch, the only point you really need to think about now is finding PC cases compatible with 3.5" HDDs!

        NAS

        I needed 2 6TB hard drives for my NAS, on the site there was only one but the salesperson checked whether there was one available nearby.
        That was the case, he reserved it and had it put aside, I was able to pick it up the same day.
        A big thank you to the LDLC employees for their welcome and professionalism.

        does the job!

        This is the fourth drive of this type purchased from LDLC to expand a RAID 5 array. The other three are ten years old and work very well, so hopefully this little brother will do the same.

        Very good for backups and infrequently used data, less suitable for working directly on it on a daily basis....

        Does the job

        My old SSD was at the end of its life. I chose to have it replaced by you because I had my PC built by you and I always get good feedback.
        I was told it would take a week to fix my PC, but two days later it was ready, which was great! And in addition to replacing the SSD, you offered to replace one of my faulty fans, thank you.

        HDD used to store videos.
        Good speed for transferring files of several GB.
        Still as friendly as ever at the Cormontreuil shop.

        Best value for money

        Best storage-price ratio (research from early 2026). I recommend it for storing data, not for running GTA 6 (lol).

        Excellent

        Whatever one may say about HDDs, it's always a good thing to have one, and this one is frankly brilliant. 4TB is perfect for certain games and mods, not to mention being able to store loads of videos or films.

        Product OK, service needs improvement

        Hello. No issues with the product, even though I had to cancel an order on the website and purchase it in-store: it's a shame that in-store stock isn't included in the online shopping channel.
        My other point for improvement relates to service. When you buy a hard drive in a shop, you expect advice: check that you have all the cables to connect to the motherboard, check the mounting systems for tower installation. I didn't get any information. So I had to fend for myself on the day with a local salesperson who gave me a SATA cable.

        Good rating. Disc operational immediately.

        Good rating.
        The order arrived very quickly. I needed to replace a SATA hard drive in a very old PC (10 years old), the drive was no longer working, and in the end, Windows would no longer start up.
        The PC was running Windows 10. I took the opportunity to upgrade to Windows 11.
        Copying the disk using the Advance Dual Dock BX-3003U32 was very easy.
        The drive I purchased is perfect.
        I now have a working machine again, running Windows 11.
        In general, I have never had any problems with hardware purchased from LDLC. The quality is always there.

        Product meets my expectations

        Easy to install, good value for money, and the advisors in Thionville are top notch.
        For your information, they've already fixed two of my laptops (minor Windows 11 bugs) and didn't want to be paid.
        A shop that deserves to be known... with professionals and great prices.
        In short, there is an alternative to online shopping.

        I've never had any problems with this company, which I prefer to order from rather than buy 10% cheaper on Amazon.
        Effective and relevant advice. Big difference with FNAC for example.

        Very good product

        Very comfortable capacity: At 4TB, this drive is ideal for massive storage: back-ups, large files (videos, photos), or as a "data" drive for a desktop PC.
        Good value for money: the price is fairly reasonable for this capacity.
        Fairly generous cache: It has 256 MB of cache, which helps to smooth out performance on moderate transfers.
        Very good choice when there's a storage disk (backup, archives, large files), economical compared with an SSD of this capacity, and there's no need for ultra-fast continuous writing speeds.

        High-performance discs and fast service

        I needed a drive pretty quickly after my cousin gave me a 100GB+ PC game. The barracuda are good disks and they were available in my LDLC.
        So the same day I was able to increase the storage capacity of my PC.

        Perfect!

        This HDD has found its place in a storage box designed for this purpose, as it is used as a personal data backup.

        ?? Positive.
        - No installation required, as this HDD is used via an inovU dock.
        - Works quickly, quietly and doesn't get too hot.
        - Seems "solid" as always (remains to be seen over time).
        - Very decent transfer speeds (tested via CrystalDiskMark).

        ?? Negative.
        - Nothing yet.

        Anyway ...
        It's still a pleasure to use Seagate products; I'm never disappointed (so far at least).

        4TB HDD

        Following a sudden breakdown of my old HDD, I went to the shop in Vienne, where, as usual, I was very well advised.
        The model was in stock. I reinstalled it without a hitch.

        Great performance for what I use it for, quick to plug in as removable on a CORSAIR tower, super-fast delivery!

        Satisfactory throughput, copied +1 TB in a few hours.
        As usual, it needs to be partitioned and formatted before it can be used.

        I bought this drive to replace two ageing Western Digital drives that were getting dangerously hot in an old PC. Immediate installation and configuration.
        No long term statistics, the installation was done a month ago, but I already have several Seagate drives of greater capacity in more recent machines (and/or external enclosures) which are giving me complete satisfaction!
        The shop was also very welcoming.

        4 TOs for margin

        This 4TB internal drive, installed by LDLC on my PC with an adapter, works perfectly and seems to me to have a bright future for photos, videos and music without stressing about the space available. The margin is appreciable. I think it's a credible alternative to the pressure from cloud promoters!

        Works perfectly

        I bought this hard drive to repair partial storage on a SYNOLOGY DS218 NAS.
        It's perfect, silent, responsive, transfer speeds are respected.

        in-store purchase

        everything was perfect.
        I looked at the availability on the website, once found I called the shop to put it aside and I came to pick it up as soon as possible.
        Very nice person and I left with my disk :)

        everything should be like that :)
        especially when it comes to stock availability in retail outlets.

        reliable disc

        Hello
        I've had several in raid 1 or jbod without any problems for years.
        It's not about performance, it's about backup, and in these cases it's fine.

        For NAS server in raid1

        Seagate is a brand that I prefer when I set up a NAS as a raid1. I needed a large capacity to cover the needs of a TPE.

        Reliable and efficient

        This Seagate hard drive is ideal for storage, without the need for high performance. Even though it's versatile, it's ideal for an office machine or a NAS.
