Solid drive as you would expect from a Barracuda

Bought as a replacement drive for my media server to replace an aging WD that had started the click of death and only reporting occasionally, this was quickly detected and setup. Worked flawlessly attached to a Linux system.Easy to install and format, I've used and installed probably hundreds of barracuda products and that was a big reason why I decided to get this brand for my personal PC. That and at the time of purchase it was priced very well per Gb.At the time of review this drive is about six months old. It runs pretty quiet except when actively transferring data and even then it's audible but not loud. Transfer speed is decent and as you'd expect for a sata drive (~6Gbps)Overall this is great value for money. Especially considering the amount of time and effort it would take to replace this data.

4 years later, Still going strong

Purchased this drive as a backup drive for my media and main drives about 4 years ago. 4 years later and it's still going strong. Very happy that it's still available as I'm considering buying a matching drive now to put into a NAS.Other than that there isn't much to say, very typical performance for a drive in this size and speed class. Does it's job and does it reliably.

Large capacity in a good price. Should last for another 7-10 years.

In short: I’m an IT guy and I find this drive highly recommended for local storage at home. I have many Barracuda Seagate disks of an old models and very happy with their performance and durability and they serve me for years… If you don’t like the idea of storing your precious data in the cloud (safe and sound as it may seem) then managing a local storage is the way to go. And these Barracuda Segate 4TB drives are great for that purpose as they have enough capacity for most users while their price tag is affordable.Keep in mind that having local disks require maintenance, and that hard drives do fail when they wear out – it’s not IF they fail but more of WHEN, as they all die eventually; even the enterprise level ones. So if you consider the route of a local storage \ backup server then you’d better make a backup plan in advanced for redundancy – if you only need 1 drive for your data then buy 2 drives. If you need 2 drives then go with 4. And so on… The rule is to always have an exact copy of your data in 2 separate (physical) places, either by manual copying between disks, or for the advanced users between us to setting up a RAID 1 array for automatic clone (mirror) of one disk to the other; even if it costs somewhat more (if not doubled) at first, in the long run when one of your precious disks fail you’d be very happy that you had a backup. So besides of the loss of the actual disk, your data is safe and sound since it is stored on the second disk you aimed in advanced for this very scenario. And in such scenario it’s a good time to go shopping right away for a new drive to replace the one that failed, since you no longer have redundancy once one had failed. And when it arrives don’t challenge your fate and waste time - go ahead and copy all your data from the backup drive to it to have redundancy once again.My own story and experience: I have many Barracuda Seagate disks. About 10 actually. From my experience with mechanical drives and with Seagate brand in particular is that they *last for about 7-10 years. And when we speak on mechanical hard drives it's quite good. I had an old Seagate disk I stored data on, which was about 7-10 years old, and it failed about 2 weeks ago. I'm very glad that I spent some extra when I bought it and purchased a second one to serve me as a backup. So besides of the actual disk that died I didn't lose any data. This one came to replace it and I’m writing this review while it copies my data from the backup drive. I trust that it will give me another 7-10 years of quiet before it fails too. I'd recommend to check your disks health every now and then and to pay attention for any "clicking" sound from your computer case - even after my rich experience as an IT guy I fell for that very scenario because I was too busy to open my computer case and check where the clicking sound had come from, and thought that it's just from a dying fan... If I was paying more attention and take responsibility I'd probably replaced the disk before it finally died. There are many free tools out there that you can use to check your drives health and to let you know in advanced when a disk shows bad signs and needs a replacement. I'm using CrystalDiskInfo and I set it to launch at startup. So every time I restart my machine it pops-up and shows the actual disks health.*Hard drives will last depending on the user's usage. If you're only storing files on them for accessing later then they will more likely last longer. On the other hand if it's your "scratch disk" for video editing or you create and delete huge amount of data on it on a daily basis and the drive is under a heavy load then it may last less. It also depends on the environment the hard drive is located and the airflow in your computer case. Here are some tips as an IT guy: carefully clean your computer case interior from dust with air spray cans or oil-free dental compressor every 3-4 months. Make sure all fans in your case are working correctly – ventilated computer case will make your entire system and disks to last longer and to perform better; computers don’t like heat. Don’t keep computers in cabinets that have no airflow from the front and back. Don’t force shutdown your computer by holding the power switch unless it’s your last result (if let’s say it hanged or crashed). If you take these tips into consideration then your hard drives will last longer.

May not be as fast as expected but has capacity!

I ordered 2 of these 8TB drives. In Crystal Disk Mark one drive only has half the speed of the other and Steam didn’t seem to like the drive because it acted very slow with it. Steam works perfectly on the other drive. Now I only left one star off because I can still use the other drive for media storage as I don’t seem to notice the issue when in use in this manner. The problem drive is slower but not a big problem when it comes to photo, video and music storage! I think it somehow got passed QC as probably a mistake. Running a smart test does not show an issue and other test show that it is a good drive but just a little slower. Now the good one is awesome. I use a 1TB NVME PCIE gen 5 drive as cache for it and the damn thing just works. I didn’t buy it for speed but I did buy it for capacity and it has all I need. This is why I have a dedicated cache drive for it. Now it’s like I have an 8TB drive running at PCIE gen 4 speeds. Awesome if you ask me!

Good instructions, works perfectly

Screwed this into my new Dell desktop and plugged it in. The system recognized it and it worked perfectly. Now I have a good place to store all of those photos without paying for the cloud.
