N/A 4/2/2013 3:00:29 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5Nothing but trouble.

Drache Rott 3/25/2013 6:02:29 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5Seagate Barracuda Pros: Was pretty Quick Cons: Started Failing after 1.5 years but S.M.A.R.T was not catching it. Was causing the system crash but the symptoms made it look like other things. Figured out after total hard drive failure now Seagate wont help. Other Thoughts: Hard Drive manufactures have gone way down hill on customer service. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 3/16/2013 5:28:52 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Working like a boss Pros: Title says it all. Cons: Nothing to report Other Thoughts: Moderate usage on this drive.

UrVAITGuy 3/8/2013 12:51:21 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Shame they dont sell it anymore. Pros: Reliable, decent speed. Bought mine back in 2009 for 100 bucks, which was pretty good back then. No read issues or bad sectors after all this time either, and it's gets a lot of use. Cons: They don't sell it anymore. They have a winner for reliability and longevity and that doesn't make a company money. Selling more replacements does. Other Thoughts: This is a media drive in one of my computers. Fully loaded with my movie/music library and shared on the network. Its solid as a rock even after nearly 3 years sitting in an old file server on a dusty floor. Had I known this would stand the test of time, I'd have bought two. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
