This will be my 4th ST2000DM006 drive and I couldn’t be happier. All the drives work well, no issues with them at all despite some other unfortunate reviewers. They’re pretty quick for 2TB drives and they load up my games just fine. Is it faster than a SSD? No. Is it comparable to a WD Black? I would say yes, and it’s almost half the cost. I’ll gladly sacrifice a few seconds to save almost $50 from a 2TB WD Black.
They’re not noisy drives but once the drive starts spinning up it makes a slightly noticeable sound, it’s definitely not a con, just pointing it out. And it happens on all 4 of my drives. After the startup though it’s just a plain-ole’ sounding hard drive. Definitely much much quieter than a Toshiba/Hitachi 2TB I bought, now that thing is loud.
Bottom line is all drives fail, some are DOA, it happens. But so far none of these drives has failed on me yet so I’m quite confident in purchasing more from seagate if need be.

Purchased this drive 6 years ago and it’s beginning to fail (clicking noises started a few months ago and within the last week there have been performance issues that coincide with periods of more clicking than usual, so I’m pretty sure it’s on it’s way out). I’m still rating this highly because up until now it’s performed very well and 6 years of good performance for a 60 dollar hard drive seems completely fair. Plus it’s giving me plenty of warning rather than going out suddenly, so I can make a smooth transfer to a replacement drive before this one goes out.

To give you an idea of the wear I’ve been putting on it, I do game daily, but generally not the kinds of games that are super resource intensive and that would put an extraordinary amount of wear on the hardware. If you’re just looking to use this for internet browsing, file storage, and/or office software you’ll probably get a little more life out out of it than I did, but if you’re into hardcore gaming it will probably wear out sooner so I wouldn’t recommend it.

I purchased this hard drive one and a half year back, it got too many bad sectors yet was still working really good, it was still in warranty time so I took it to service centre and Seagate replaced the drive for new one in just 2 days time.

Lets be real, if you have a low capacity SSD around 120gb or less odds are you have run into the problem of running out of space, now one could but another SSD or even a bigger one, but SSDs at the moment are pretty expensive, so what’s a great alternative? A HDD of course!

Now over the years Seagate has been stepping up their hard drive game, less failures and more durability is absolutely great, since other hard drive manufactures have been on the decline of failure rates and durability, I had to go with Seagate on this one.

My last Seagate drive was a 1tb 5500 rpm drive, it was really noisy but I got that one about 10 years or so ago, so how much has Seagate improve in 10 years? A lot, seriously they did their research, this drive is really quiet, for 2tb I expected a noisy drive but its very quiet, and performs very well too, compared to one of my other computers that has a 1tb WD Blue drive, I have to say I prefer the 2tb Barracuda by a long shot, it makes very little noise and I don’t think there is virtually any spin up time at all, it just works.

I would definitely recommend anyone who has been using any other drive oem to just give Seagate another try, this drive proves they did their research and designed a solid HDD, I’m sure it will last a long time too.
