Most Critical Review

Great drives & price but poor packaging

Seagate Momentus 5400.3 ST9160821A 160GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 2.5" Internal Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Great drives and great price.

Cons: Poor packaging in shipping. I ordered 30 hard drives total. 10 of these, 10 other laptop drives and 10 desktop ones. The 20 laptop drives were simply thrown into a box with one thin piece of bubble wrap covering them and nothing around each drive. There is no physical damage apparent but there was nothing to stop them from bouncing all around and into one another. Not an appropriate way to ship sensitive hard drives.

Overall Review: The price with free shipping is hard to beat. However if free shipping means no packaging materials in the box I will shop elsewhere. I have contacted customer support and have made a note of my issue and they are supposedly passing it on to the warehouse manager to see what happened.
