Seagate Barracuda 8 TB internal Hard Drive HDD, 3.5 Inch, 5400 RPM, 256 MB Cache, SATA 6 Gb/s - ST8000DM004

Best choice and no click sound

As for mechanical hard disk, storage oriented, it's great. 150-160MB/S transfer rate with just 5400 rpm is a very good deal.

well it did take some time for it to arrive, but everything is good, packaging was great and product was great also

Great product

I recently upgraded my computer's storage capacity with the Seagate Barracuda 8 TB internal hard drive, and I must say, it has been a worthwhile investment. This HDD offers a balance of performance and storage capacity that caters well to my needs. The first notable feature is its impressive 8 TB capacity, providing an abundance of space for storing large files, media libraries, and extensive projects without constantly worrying about running out of storage. This is particularly useful for content creators, professionals working with large datasets, and anyone who requires substantial storage space. Although the Barracuda operates at a speed of 5400 RPM (rotations per minute), which might not be the fastest on the market, I found it to be quite adequate for everyday tasks. While it may not match the speed of SSDs, the Barracuda still offers reasonably quick access times and transfer rates for its class. It's important to note that this drive strikes a balance between performance and affordability, making it suitable for those who need a large storage solution without breaking the bank. In terms of reliability, Seagate's reputation shines through. The Barracuda series is known for its durability and longevity, and this 8 TB variant is no exception. I have been using it for several months without encountering any significant issues, and its consistent performance has been reassuring. There are no included instructions for installations but you can find DIY videos online for setting it up within the system.

never used, it did not sync to my pc

Installed both disks in my PC. Started installing the OS and during the installation process the disk started making strange noises. After restarting the PC, the bios does not detect the hard disk.

got 3 Seagate Barracuda 8tb drives for my NAS after one month one of the drives started dying and had to be replaced , replacing/repair via segate is impossible even though it says that it's still under warranty, good luck getting into contact with any humans in their support i spent a week attempting to get in contact with them and resolve the issue and nothing ... will never be getting any Segate products again

Model numarasındaki ST8000DMZ04 farkı 75x155x230 Seagate box paket olarak geldiği için değişmiş. Yoksa bilinen ST8000DM004'ten bir farkı yok. Gayet sağlıklı bir şekilde elime ulaştı. Tavsiye ederim....

I was a bit worried when the HDD arrived and the box was dented (signs of 'mishandling'). Did a validation (unRAID preclear) which ran over 49hours to test each sector of the hardisk and I am glad that it pass 100%! Note: Got this at a very good price but remember this is SMR disk. It fits my purpose for archiving data. IF you are using this as a NAS (e.g. in synology NAS) you are better off looking for a CMR disk (google the difference). Putting this disk for RAID purpose will be a disaster! Take note.

très bonne qualité

I'm happy with it but it did drop down to 7.5tb when installed and then to 7.1TB after first restart not shure why.

انصح الجميع بالذات ان سعره ارخص بمراحل من السنين الماضيه يمديك تحط ملفاتك ومقاطعك والالعاب اهم شي مو الالعاب الحديثه الي تتطلب ssd ويمديك تخزن فيه لين ماتتطفش وماواجهت فيه اية مشاكل
