Large capacity in a small package.
My grandson helped me order this Hard Drive and when it came he put it in for me and set up my computer for me. I a very happy grandma now.
Two drives work well as RAID drive for Steam games and backups RAID drive writes at 280MB/s from an SSD (copying large files) Quiet/silent, which is exactly why I ordered these instead of desktop drives (tend to be noisier)
Faster than the one it replaces.
Good capacity/cost ratio
2.5" 500gb HD. fast shipping. everything was perfect. works like it should. migrated my system to it and booted right up. no issues
Size (both physical and logical) Plug 'n Play in the Ubiquity Cloud Key Gen 2+ SDN controller
Wow this drive is thin. It registers in at only 7mm in height, by far the smallest 2.5” drive I have come across. This will fit easily in ultrabooks. This may not fit as well in regular laptop drives, it will screw into the cage, but it will have some wiggle room. Either way make sure you intend on getting such a small drive from the beginning. I used the Seagate Disk Wizard tool to copy my OS install onto this HDD. It was a very easy process (see other thoughts). This drive runs very well, I did not hear any abnormal noises either. Fairly quick response (I have SSDs on both laptop and desktop so it’s not a fair comparison). I used HD Tune Pro v2.55 to benchmark this drive. Read speeds average out at around 136Mbps, write speeds slightly slower at 124Mbps and the access time was around 15ms. No bad sectors out of the box and no abnormal SMART readings
Bought this specifically for the ps4 slim after reading the other reviews. Original drive failed. Follow the instructions from Sony on reinstalling the OS. Very simple procedure. Great price for the drive during black Friday. Thanks newegg, you saved my ps4!
Got this and decided to use it with a usb 3.0 external enclosure, for extra storage on my Xbox one. It works great easy setup and format with xbox one. Gives me plenty of space on my 500gb xbox one now with the extra 1 terabyte of space. Reads and operates as fast as it should, have not had any troubles with this drive. Now I can keep all my xbox live games and disc installed games in storage and ready to play when I get in the mood to play any of them. No more un-installing and re-installing games for space. With this drive I didn't have to spend a fortune or have to upgrade to a whole new xbox one.
used this harddrive in my old laptop which is running linux and it works well
Everything!! I ordered an SSA drive in error. I wanted an SATA. I contacted E.O.L. Tech and explained. They immediately sent me what I really wanted and trusted I would return the one I bought (which I did). The replacement was done at no charge. People list this are very few and far between.
This is a nice 1TB enterprise Seagate drive in a 2.5" form factor. I'm running this drive in a workstation. It came with a 5 year warranty. (Please note, this most likely will not fit in a laptop, if that is what you are seeking to do. It is much taller than a typical laptop drive.) So far, I'm very happy with it.,
Fast Formatting, did not overheat installed easily in laptop.
Drive was easy to install. Laptop came on immediately when tried. Ive purchased more than 10 Seagate drives over time and only had 1 bad . Newegg instantly replaced it without problems.
I got this drive to use as a second disk for my 2012 model Macbook Pro. I put it in and it came up no problems. I fly alot and it makes for an easy way to keep all my movies and music on my laptop without having to pull out an external drive on flights.
fast enough for my application which was a hd upgrade in a playstation 3.
