Digital camera reviews of Seagate Barracuda 500 GB 7200RPM SATA NCQ 16 MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Desktop Hard Drive ST3500641AS-RK-Retail Kit
Digital camera Review: Great Product - Easy Installation
Summary: 5 Stars
I have purchased two of these now - I can't say enough. They are easy to install as both a backup drive and a fresh build. Fast as lightning and lots of room!Digital camera Review: Great high capacity, high speed SATA drive
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed a second drive for my workstation, and it was pretty much a choice between Western Digital and Seagate. This one seemed the best in terms of value and size. I may be building an external storage array in the near future, and I'll probably buy this drive again.Digital camera Review: Had two die in less than 1 year
Summary: 2 Stars
One died after 4 months, RMA'ed it for the same model. The second one died after 7 months.
I would AVOID SEAGATE. The drive is NOT quiet at all.
Compared to WD, Seagate is [...]. I took a chance with Seagate after owning mostly WD and Maxtor drives. This was a horrible decision.
Digital camera Review: Loud HD
Summary: 2 Stars
When running vista this thing grinds away so much you will need to turn up the TV just to hear it over the idol computer.
I ended up buying a western digital again. Now my computer is so quiet I cannot hear it run. The guy at Fry's said western digital was going down in quality as an excuse why they don't stock it anymore. All I really care about is being able to keep my sanity by stopping the grinding.
Digital camera Review: Nice but noisy
Summary: 3 Stars
I originally bought two of these bad boys to put into a NAS (network attached storage) that was going to be tucked away in a closet. Well the NAS (linksys) was a bust (returned it since it was so slow). I kept the drives and put them in my HP computer as a RAID-1 (mirrored) pair. They are fast but do click a bit as the heads do their reading ans writing. Overall a good buy and reliable so far.
