Antony Franco –
Is this an original product? because it is a 5400rpm drive but the package says otherwise, I have some doubt that is this a original or refurbished product, who knows. Working perfectly until now, but making squeaking noise now and then while running, well that is a matter of concern. I have already returned 7200rpm Seagate drive that wont even start, then when I looked up to try that product again, that product price got 900rs. more within a day, so I ordered this one. Seagate’s qc is getting little low I guess.

If you have an old laptop and it doesn’t have any m.2 port then you must buy this. It’ll make your laptop runs faster than before. It will boot in just 3-5 seconds and also applications load faster. No lag issue came since I installed SSD in my laptop.

I used this THIN HDD DRIVE 7MM in my hp laptop and its working perfectly after installing window. But total memory is around 476GB rather than 500 GB
SoHell –
If you are a normal user like browsing, watching movies and other light softwares user then this will not cause any problem for sure.But if you are a heavy software user, gamer, graphic designer, video editor etc like this, then this is not right choice.This is QLC based and might cause problem later.Between TLC and QLC Nand, TLC is better in every way.After I received the product I researched about TLC and QLC Nand.And voila! I returned it today.Gonna buy TLC Nand. Will cost me 100 more but worthy.

Does Verified realize that hdd’s are not to be shipped in a torn and broken cheap plastic case. I was lucky that the drive was not DOA or had any bad sectors 🤞Hard disks are fragile and must be shipped within a cusioned box.5 stars for hdd but 1 star for packaging.
vkvindy –
Bang for your buck if you are looking for a high capacity HDD for media back up.The pricing and performance is ok, but beware the packaging is pathetic and my part had actual scrapes and damages. But it worked fine so i started using the same. If the seller can take 5 minutes of his time to pack this item properly and i would not mind paying 100 rs extra for the same, it would be better.

My first upgrade to a ssd device from HDD, so of course it’s a lot faster than hdd. Packaging was good, received on time. Pricing was my first concern as compared to normal sata3 ssd, since I got nvme in the price of ssd, so it was good. Since this is qlc but that didn’t matter to me as as I work a little on PC (the general stuff) & some gaming. Overall a good product.

One of the best value for money product from Seagate, I thought that the ssd is not correct, then I went to computer stores for comparision, compared with WD ssd, HP, samsung, Kingston ssds. They sell sata m.2 ssd on 5000, HPs nvme ssd on 6500, what would I tell about samsung and kingston, both them are skyrocketed on prising. Also compared on online computer stores, they are little 200,300 cheap but last they include tax on it and make it more expensive, lastly thought, chalo kharid lete hai, kharab hoga to wapas ho jaega 😅😅.. But gajab gajab, best in class, used QLC nand chip, speeds are such nice, tested several times, no issues in large files transfer, speed are constant. Best 👍

I bought this for my Acer Nitro 5 laptop which is 3 years old. The laptop came with a 128 gb Sata M.2 SSD. I was not sure whether this Seagate Barracuda NVMe M.2 SSD will work for my Laptop, but i took a chance and it works well. The bench mark test shows 2300 MBps read and 1050 MBps write speeds. Though it is faster than the orginal Sata M.2 but i did not find any considerable change.Anyways i wanted to upgrade the storage size of C drive as 128gb was not enough.Overall its performance is good. No complaints. But should have tried the Crucial or Samsung brands.

I have an Acer Nitro 5, i5 8th gen, GTX1050 with 1TB HDD. Basically only the hard drive speed was the issue with my laptop as I joined a WFH coding job. Every task from installing software to running IDEs and browsers ate up significant time.Decided to go for the 500GB model for peace of mind. You can blindly go for a lower capacity one if you’re only going to be installing OSes (yep multiboot Linux distro users, I see you) on the SSD.Definitely worth it on a sale, the speeds aren’t going to vary too much between different brands in this price range.
Shafi –
First Product:The packaging was not good, for a fragile product no extra protection was provided apart from a thin layer of bubble wrap. The drive started to provide clicking sound at the first install install. The drive was also not getting formatted properly. The format will stop saying “The format didn’t get completed properly”. Also after each restart of computer, disk management was asking to Initialize the drive every time with an error message as “The drive which does not exist is specified”.Second Product: Got a replacement, this drive came without any damage and this drive was shipped from haryana. Product is great value for money.Please check and return the product once you find its faulty.
Kalyan Roy –
It’s performance is purely average and nothing groundbreaking when it comes to copying files from/to an external source. Boot up speed is significantly faster though as compared to a Hard disk. overall it’s ok -ish .
Kartikey Singh –
My TUF Gaming FX505GT laptop came with a single 500GB SSD. My uses were primarily gaming, coding and watching movies/series. As expected, I soon ran out of storage and decided to get a 1TB HDD.It was super easy to install and got working in one go. I’ve using the HDD for the past 11 months now and have not faced any issues. I place the games that require a lot of fast loading and online games in the SSD and the rest in the HDD, and so far the combo has worked perfectly.Would recommend.

Gajendra –
Opting a large capacity drive without RAID is always a risk but being Seagate customer over 2 decades gave me confidence more than other vendors. However, within 2 months the drive failed with 1TB data loss. Seagate support was excellent in providing an immediate replacement with a new drive, and organizing reverse pickup from doorstep on additional request.Indubitably it’s a disappointmet over product but need to take in account various factors (pakaging, transit, handling) by channels other than Seagate such as Verified seller. The replacement drive was provided direct by Seagate and that is working properly on few hours usage but I will append a note in few months if that sustains. Also, the warranty is 6 months less in new drive.Below are some important notes for home users while installing large capacity drives:- Don’t “Move” important data to new drive. Rather, first “Copy” and wait for couple of weeks. In case of issue with new drive, old drive/source still has data intact.- Most of the errors start emerging within 3 months. Look for odd noise, slowing performance, or files or directories start opening slowly or give errors.- On noticing any of the errors, immediately take backup of possible data. Don’t use drive till backup is taken. The error with drive gets severe with usage.- Check warranty of new drive with serial number on Seagate site.- [IMPORTANT] If there’s critical data, keep a backup copy on cloud (One Drive, Google Drive etc).

Review after a few months of use. I used it to replace my partner’s HDD on her ASUS Vivobook. It works very well and obviously it sped up the system a lot.Wish it came with a antistatic foil wrap as I had to recycle the one of the HDD but other than that all good.
Sunil Kumar –
The hard disk looks good and I placed in my laptop as my old one was not working fine.This is a laptop 5400rpm hdd so might look a slower one. It worked for me when I replaced it in. I am putting one down because it is looking a bit slow to me.

The product is good. Fast enough data read and write. But the only drawback is that they doesnt provide mounting screws. The mounting screws are so hard to find. I had to disassemble an old SMPS to get mounting screws for the same. Received a used product initially. Seller replaced with fresh product.

When I seen the review of this product I was little worried that how it will come to me like all are saying that packaging is not good but when I finally received the packaging was not good, anyway I checked the disk 1TB was new and just I installed in my CPU and it’s really working nice, I am writing this review after using for 3 month, so i happy.
Manoj Prajapati –
When received the product I haven’t got it tested due to SATA cable shortage and postponed testing this product. But when I tried that attaching in the computer after a month I arranged the SATA cable, this HDD doesn’t work for me and I have got 2 years warranty of this product so I am going to in touch with the support of the product and let’s see if they can help me in that case or not.Comment For Seller: It’s your responsibility to ensure the working condition of any product before sending it to the buyer. In my case, you haven’t tested the product from your end and sent me a defective product which isn’t good for your sales and reputation. I got the product replaced by the company not feom the seller.

Reviewing it after 4 1/2 months usage.It’s value for money purchase with 2 years warranty.The installation is very easy and performance is good as per the expectation . Speed to access the files is very fast.Kindly do not forget to register your device with manufacturer ‘Seagate’ to claim the 2 year warranty.Finally satisfied with the purchase.

I can’t believe that this ssd is showing so much speed up to 20 x faster than hdd windows 10 installation just in 15 minutes where hdd takes 2:30 hours 😱😱 and afteer installing win 10 showing so much speed not lagging and one more thing is that where I have installed ssd that laptop is of 2 gb ram and 8years old omg

If you planning to buy a hdd for gaming donot think about it , i bought it to keep extra files in it so that my ssd performance should not get effected. If you ask me buy 512 gb ssd for gaming and other software usage it will be worth you spendings and keep harddrive to keep other trash 😅

Arun AJ –
First of all, I got the package on the promise date itself. I was not at all satisfied with the way the HDD was packaged because it was torn and was slightly damaged. Anyway, no visible damages on HDD have been found so far.Some of them have mentioned that they got a refurbishment or non genuine product. So, I visited Seagate website for checking warranty. I entered my serial key and found that the product is genuine. But the warranty period is only 1 year. In the product description, its given as 2 or 3 years.Now about the product. I have installed it. No problems so far. Did a chkdsk and found no error. I’m getting an average write speed of 100MBps and above. Will update after some week.Thanks for reading.

The Hard Disk was just thrown into a big box along with some brown paper.If bubblewrapping is too much to ask, Atleast you could’ve wrapped that brown paper around the Hard Disk, rather than just placing it aside.I don’t know how many times that Hard Disk would’ve toppled inside the container.For now it works great and no issues and worth the price, but internal physical damange could’ve been there due to poor packaging which might lead to the Hard Disk failing much sooner than expected.10/10 for the Hard Disk which I got at 3.9Kgreat value.But 3/10 for the packaging.Please improve it, atleast for fragile devices like a HDD.

After reading a lot of negative reviews I was not confident of buying online. I finally took my chances and bought the 4TB variant. Product was well packed and worked on 1st boot.Immediately put it on extended 7 Hrs. diagnostic test to check for any bad sectors. Lucky enough to find NONE.Read speed during tests found to be 100-150 MBPS. Write speed is 60-80 MBPS.This is decent for a desktop drive considering the amount of storage you getting for price. Good VFM.This is not for gaming, although you can run games from this drive but loading times will be higher.Skip this HDD and buy an SSD if gaming is your preference.

Seagate Hard drives now a days became worst in quality that suddenly fails resulting in data loss. Many years ago Seagate was sturdy and durable. I had hard drives for 10 years of this brand without issues. But now failures rate are high than other brands. Suddenly it fails and become useless. All data lost because of these crap hard drives. If not 10 years, Hard drives must last atleast 3 to 5 years. But Seagate is just a crap in durability. Don’t rely on these hard drives for your valuable data.

Bought it for INR3299.Better than WD.Performance is ok. Not the best but u don’t have much options. Either Seagate or WD.I choose the former.Windows 10 boot time with 20 installed apps and games is 24 secs and shut down time is nearly 20 secs.If u want more storage than speed then definitely it is a better choice than SSDs😀😀

Working fine, statistics match with original. But serial number doesn’t match with online data base. This is really suspicious. Meanwhile talking about its working, its working fine. No sound or anything noticable which can affect the performance. Shipment was pathetic as if was some clothing material with no protection for the product at all.. talking about protection, Verified, filp send tons of protection even with Condoms packing so that it doesn’t damaged but fails to give protection with this.1st thing you should do as soon as you get the hard drive is check for tha bad sector. There are bunch of softwar.

The HDD performs as I expected it to, works fine, but the packaging by the seller was terrible, no cushion, not even the original box that contains the item, the HDD slid out and it was just protected by a bubble wrap., please look into it. This is unprofessional from the seller.

After a lot of research and reviews I made my choice to buy this particular model. 2.5 inch 1tb hdd. I am using it in my acer nitro 5 an515 45. The thing I don like is the packaging. It didn’t even have bubble paper. Hdd was inside an cover and placed inside an plastic box but when received it was out of that box. But hdd cover was not tampered so didn’t return. And after installing all the steps followed from acer website my hdd didnt showed up in my laptop. Then booted to BIOS and checked and I could find my hdd 😁 now again rebooted and went to harddisk partitions and found the hdd in unallocated format. Then followed simple procedure to create the new hdd with new partitions. Viola it’s now accessible and usable. Using Seagate wesite downloaded tools to check the hdd health and info and found to be “pass” and info is same as printed in the hdd. As of now no issues and problem. Let’s wait and see 😁👍

Received hard disk properly. Its working nicely. Only issue is warranty date is old. Warranty received is 1 year 4 months as per the Seagate website, instead of 2 years since its manufacturing date is old. May be it is due to pandemic. However, hard disk is working properly. No issues at all. Thanks.

But after I received the nice package and brand new 2 terabyte Seagate Barracuda Hard Drive and after installation I recommend to buy this product. Note: last time I had ordered 500 gb Barracuda Hard Drive but it was not Barracuda so becareful and look if it’s the same product which you have ordered or different one.

Both the brand new 2 TB hard drives I ordered from Verified were received defective, so what would I do? Reach out for a replacement, but wait, what does Verified do, they direct me to the Seagate service center, a few calls and feeling like a football later, I have to drive down (paying toll) to the nearest service center where they collect the old hard drives and say replacement (read refurbished) drives will be delivered at my address. Now, I have two refurb drives at the price of brand new ones. Be good to yourself, buy such stuff from your local vendor only.

Bought this drive for Rs-3455/- only, retail shops are selling it for 3500 to 4000 here. Since it is a 5400 RPM 2.5″ drive don’t expect world class performances, it works fine for storing data and playing games that don’t require fast storage device, it’s an HDD not an SSD afterall. You can easily play any multiplayer games without any issues but GOD of WAR 2018 and Resident Evil series loves fast storage devices like an SSD because these type of games loads the map on the go so on an HDD whenever the game loads the map you will face huge LAGGG. But its not a Seagate problem it happens on all HDD so keep this in your mind before buying and please pair this HDD with a 250-500 GB SSD and install the OS on the SSD for optimum performance.

The Segate is always reliable. The product is good but be careful the product is imported from Thailand and you wont be able to find it on Indian Segate site. I really dont know how we can claim the warranty as product is not listed in indian sote. Whereas you can find it on Thai site as it is listed there. Try to by product from indian origin or lusted on indian company sites as it will be difficult later to claim warranty..
Adv. Deepak Kumar Nair –
Being an SSD Drive, please do not defragment this disk. It reduces the life of the disk. Actual size comes to only 440 GB. This is being used as OS ops disk and needed to be freshly installed. Worked smooth as a whistle.

Because firt partion is 1.99 tb.Gaming : did not try.

Product is of 5400 rpm as software of the OS shows. Sticker on the plastic wrapper shows 7200 rpm. Over all good secondary storage.

I am using it on Gen 3 channel.I have purchased seagate, samsung and WD snce long, both internal and external. Its about 20 yrs for one of them (laptop 250 GB), all running well. This one performs like a standard SDD or may be better. The “fircuda” SDD on Gen 4 channel as primary is working just as well as the Baracuda.Baracuda 5400 rpm 2 TB 256 MB cache.

It really helped speed up my PC . 2 year old Ryzen 3 laptop was very slow and did upgrade the RAM first to 16 Gig which didnt help . It was taking almost close to 2 minutes to bootup and opening up the apps also was pretty slow .bought this SSD and now the laptop is really fast ; takes less than 20 secs to bootup .

I was eagerly waiting for this hard disk. As I’m upgrading my old system. Hard Disk💽 is brand new and original verified on Segate Website. Had some issues after and during Windows OS Installation as OS found some bad sectors and directory, However it could be due to OS error. Very Happy with the product. Will let you know more about speed and other specifications after fully upgrading my system. I would like to Thanks Verified and Seller for Brand New and Original product.

Seagate is always best.After sales, when it comes to customer service – Seagate is always the best for last 15years in Chennai to my knowledge. I have never faced issues with Seagate while replacing the drives under warranty. Five years ago, I’ve replaced a drive where it’s warranty is going to expire in two days, still Seagate has replaced it without causing any delay/hassle – amazing support from their team as always.

Received a faulty drive that made cracking noises out of the box but was promptly replaced.Nothing special or unique about this piece in particular – it works fine. This is not meant for gaming, this is a compute drive, meant for generic data storage and can also be used as a boot in case you don’t have an SSD. I use it as a storage drive on my desktop. All my data, like the downloads folder, etc go on this drive. Works well and hopefully, it lasts many more years to come.

Being an SSD Drive, please do not defragment this disk. It reduces the life of the disk. Actual size comes to only 440 GB. This is being used as OS ops disk and needed to be freshly installed. Worked smooth as a whistle.
Mayank Dutta –
Good
anas nadeer –
Ssd slightly better than hdd
Sujal Patel –

I ordered Seagate barracuda 4TB.I found it useful when we have to do many repetitive I/O based computational tasks or HDD is continuously doind I/O for user. Actually it was specifically designed for this scenario hence we call ‘barracuda’.It boasts fast speed and economicIts 7200 rpm spin speeds, 64MB cache, and SATA 6GB/s transfer rates minimize lag and load times al in terms of it selling price.

Even you can’t edit photos properly in lightroom.. forget about editing videos with this.. now i feel like i wasted li(e 800rs or something on this so called baracudaa… Now I’m using that extra 2tb as my dumb storage… Which is disappointing I’m editing photos and videos from cut/pasting everytime before editing i have sort things everytime..

Good hard drive for adding additional storage to your PC rather than as a system drive i.e. boot drive. The operating system or the drive where windows is installed will write small amount of data very frequently to the drive and a drive not designed for such use case will sustain damages to the drive and may not last longer. Use an SSD or a faster hard drive that uses CMR technology for boot drive and then add more storage with this drive.

Previously I used wd elements HDD, this time buying Seagate bcoz of a discount. This also has the same speed and same free space (931 GB from 1 TB HDD) as wd.
Nilesh S Patel –
I like this SSD HDD. But not cover warranty in Seagate Service Center. Less 1 star review. But product is good. Easy installation. Good Packing.

Hard disk is good but, hard disk plastic and box is already opened inside. I didn’t expect that, but product is in good condition. And outer Verified package is sealed.
