  • JBOD savvy without a doubt will get another

    This drive was purchased to replace a 3TB that was full and time to retire. I was going to replace it with a 6TB drive, but while searching, I ran across the 8TB Seagate. I have researched the drive specs online and was impressed with the all around evals. I placed the drive into the JBOD and started a data transfer from the 3TB to the 8TB driving using FastCopy with a 30720MB buffer using the CRC option. I did not recorded the time it took to transfer the files, but the job was done after hours where the servers and systems were not taxed. The only event that was occurring were the transfers of the files. That was about 2 weeks ago. Since the installation, the HDD has performed exceptionally well. I am impressed. There are other drives that will be replacing soon and sure enough this drive is the one I plan to get to replace the older drives. BTW, the seller takes great care in shipping the hard drives. The drive that we received was packaged with a thick rubber foam that had cutouts to fit the drive with a nice firm grip. The shipping box was tapped securely. We acknowledge that drive does not come in a store bought factory shipping package, that that makes no difference to us. What matters is the drive. Will it do the job. Will it deliver that is it expected. We believe it does. As mentioned, we are planning on purchasing additional drives to support the NAS.

  • Good storage for a decent price

    It's good storage if you don't need or can afford a NAS drive. I'm currently using 3 of these ST8000DM004 drives on one of my pc's. So far they have been reliable. I regularly transfer a lot of files between pc's or even between drives. I keep the defrag in Windows 10 set to work daily and it helps keep transfer speeds up to a decent level. It's not quite as fast as some NAS drives I've had but it performs decently enough for me at this price point.

  • Great to get the USB interface.

    Seagate Barracuda's have been a top choice of mine for over 10 years. Never had one failed. The added software and USB interface are great for use when cloning OS drives when you don't have the Sata or power connections on board. You can also use the USB interface with Seagate's software as well.

  • Not a pro but still quick

    Getting around 140 MB/s writes on long transfers sure beats the hell out of those archive drives I wouldn't be surprised if this was shucked from a cheaper external but I don't want to risk getting a archive drive. Overall I'm a happy seagate fan.

  • Makes a cheap massive NAS possible

    I've got 12 of these in a Dell R510 for 96TB of raw storage running Freenas. They are 5400RPM drives so they're not exactly blazing fast. But they work good enough for a big NAS, and seem to be reliable. Side note: they are NOT NOT NOT hot-swapable. I killed 2 drives thinking they could be hot swapped. At a minimum you need to deactivate / spin them down before yanking them from a running system.

  • Great drive for a great price.

    It is a good hard drive. I have not used the cloning software, but it worked like a charm when backing up over 6TB of data.
