  • Testing has confirmed that the latest drive from Seagate does offer a slight performance boost, but not what you would think from the latest technology. It's not a Eureka moment! However, Seagate has even said that the technology is early and performa...

  • Seagate wasn’t the first to market with a 2 terabyte desktop drive, but they did manage to pull off the first and at this time only SATA 6 GB/s drive. On one hand this is a big feat for the company, but on the other being the first doesn’t alw...

  • The maximum storage capacity you can get, in one drive, Performs well and spins at 7200rpm, 64MB buffer, SATA 6Gbps support, Seagate DiscWizard software simplifies accessing the full capacity
  • The drive heats up like a stove, Full capacity is accessible only after a workaround, Not much faster despite 64MB buffer, The price can buy you more storage space if you get lowercapacity drives instead.
  • The Seagate Barracuda XT 3TB is a nice advance, with more data density and slightly better performance. More evolutionary than revolutionary, the fact that magnetic hard disk drives are still moving forward is the prime takeaway from this product. ...

  • Very fast, silent, cool, energy-efficient
  • Very expensive
  • The Seagate Barracuda XT 2TB is a tremendous performer and is one of the fastest hard drives available at this point of time. While you may be tempted to guess that this has been possible due to the faster SATA III interface, we must assure you that th...
