Good HDD despite all the bad reviews
I was kind of skeptical purchasing this drive because of so many bad reviews. I purchased 12TB version of the drive and it came as advertised. Tested the drive OK. Speeds seemed to be reasonable about 200-250 MB/s. For example 1GB file copied in just 3 seconds! This drive is also very quiet! Pretty much makes zero noise when in operation. I ran a CrystalDiskMark (attached screenshot)I was able to register it on Seagate's website successfully and it does come with 5 year warranty and 2 year data recovery option.One negative cosmetic thing I found about the drive is that screw holes on the drive are not in the same position as any other drive I have ever used! For some reason Seagate decided to change it. There is no middle screw hole so the drive would not fit into my PC drive plastic enclosure! My enclosure had 3 plastic pins for 3 holes on each side however this drive only had 2 holes on each side) I had to break middle pin on my enclosure to be able to insert the drive in it. No big deal to be honest, I did not take a star off the drive for such a small thing. Maybe its a new design going forward?

Super noisy TOCK TOCK TOCK
I only used it for 3 minutes, connected it, turned on PC and a few seconds later i heard a loud TOCK...TOCK...TOCK...that continued until i turned off PC. Returned immediately.

Everything was exactly as promised
I have been using the drive for over 6 months now and it has been working perfectly. I record over the air broadcast TV shows and have filled the drive to capacity and then deleted files to make room for more several times without any issues. It was very easy to set up. Just plugged it in and then ran a format. Once the format was done I started copying files to it.

Great drive; takes ages to spin up
This drive literally takes 10 seconds to spin up from an off state and will more or less freeze your computer in the meantime. Great drive otherwise.

A good drive like always.
Another good product from Seagate, which is not a surprise at all.Noise level is to be expected from a mechanical drive, but Seagate drives have always been the more quiet ones so there's nothing to complain.Due to the use of helium, the drive's build has substantially improved and streamlined, which adds to the aesthetic factor. Fewer crevices mean less cleaning necessary.

Way big
This is the Black Hole. And it actually works. No way to back it up, though.

The drive is loud and too noisy.
The drive is loud and too noisy.Drive is defragged and reading large movie files it sounds like its reading all over the drive and is distracting. The drive is defragged and only has a few files on it.

Heart!
I have 2 of these drives and I am totally happy. They have been running for about a year 24/7 with no hiccups no scratching, they just work!. Now I could buy them on a payment plan. Good for me! I've gotten my 3RD EXOS drive back. (5-30-2019) If this one fails in 3 months, I will ask Seagate to replace it with a Barracuda! As far as the headline, if you are 50yrs+ you know what to do when making your purchase!
