The warrantee, the warrantee, the warrantee
Seagate stands behind this product with a 5 year warrantee. I've tried all the brands over the years, both IDE, SATA & SCSI, & nobody makes failure proof disk drives. I've sent back drives 2 everyone. SCSI will last you much longer with better performance, but at a much higher price point. I have six of these in various machines & they're quite satisfactory. You will probably be looking at 1TB models after summer 2008, but there are some heat & noise issues some report with those units. These are satisfactory in that regard. SATA is an improvement in some respects, but not hugely different in performance from IDE on most machines.

Great Drive, Very, Very, Very Quiet
I just purchased this drive & I cannot understand the reports that this drive is noisy. I think the noise must come from the enclosure vibrating & not from the drive.

It is so quiet I had 2 check 2 be sure it was powered up. I had 2 listen very carefully 2 even hear this drive during head seeks.

The DisWizard software, which is included, makes disk management & cloning the system so simple.

For the price, you cannot find a better hard drive!

major let-down
I purchased this drive in September '08 & it crashed less than two months later. No warning signs--drive just failed. I was shocked because the Seagate name was highly recommended by a friend. Sure, the drive had an extra-long warranty & sure this could happen with any brand, but still a major pain in the ### dealing wih the aftermath. Fortunately I had all of my info backed up on an external HD. Less than two months out of this drive is ridiculous, after all, this is not a no-name company. Strangely enough, the drive that failed before this one was a Maxtor (which is also manfactured by Seagate). Seagate's customer service was not very helpful.

Great high capacity, high speed SATA drive
I needed a second drive 4 my workstation, & it was pretty much a choice between Western Digital & Seagate. This one seemed the best in terms of value & size. I may be building an external storage array in the near future, & I'll probably buy this drive again.

Good but noisy
I installed this drive three weeks ago & so far so good. The software provided by Seagate is good but didn't help me with transferring my system from my old drive 2 the new drive. The software does not support dynamic disks.

The drive is a bit noisy, but not enough 2 bother this guy. The drive comes with a 5 year warranty, something the competition doesn't come close to. This is an excellent drive 4 storing your movies & mp3 files.

It's exceptionally easy 2 use & gives you better storage 4 your film, video & audio files - & even the latest memory-intensive games.
