Avis sur le produitSeagate Barracuda DB35 7200.3 160 GB,Internal,7200 RPM,3.5" (ST3160215ACE) Hard Drive

My old one perked up when the humidity dropped below 80%, so haven't used

I haven't used it yet since my old HDD quit freezing after the humid rainy season left. I am sure it will work fine when I install it because it has not been tampered with, and my experience with new hard drives is they are stellar, but watch out for used ones. Yes, after weeks of 80+% humidity, moisture works it's way inside through the vent hole and gums up the platters temporarily. Such is life in August with a swamp cooler on the roof. Air quality and density does affect read/write head float. Most hard drives won't work in thin air at high altitude.Lire l'avis complet...

good hard drive

Hard drive very good quality, long life, secure data, good speed, easy to install in computer, replacing the bad one.
Is not expensive and easy to use.

Great product and works great with Power PC G4 Mac's. I highly recommend!!

I was in the process of rebuilding an older Power/ Pc Macintosh and realized the new Sata drives were not compatible with the IDE connections on the motherboard. After playing with the idea of using an IDE to Sata converter, I thought for the money and reliability it was just best to replace the internal host 40 gig drive with a 160 gig. I was also unsure if an older computer would be able to utilize a drive with a Terabyte capacity. I felt safe with the 160.

The drive arrived and I reformatted with the Apple Mapping system inside of the Disk Utilities and I have been very pleased with the performance of the drive. I recommend it and it definitely will prolong the life of your Power Pc G4....Lire l'avis complet...

Great choice for everyday computing!!

Quick, quiet, excellent transfer rate (for an IDE drive). If you are looking to upgrade a "little bit older" system with a decent size drive, look no farther! I installed this in my Mother's Dell Optiplex 270, to replace a 40GB drive that sounded like an electric train set running, & she couldn't be more pleased. With my sister & I sending her HD videos & HI-RES pics, she no longer has to worry about storage space.Lire l'avis complet...

small by comparison to today's drives but ..

Adequate, especially as a replacement drive in a legacy system which hosts the old standard PATA/IDE drives - and can always be used as an external drive to store gobs of photos and personal data ..

Good drive, worked immediately with no issues

The drive looks well, no scratches, looks new even if it was new-other.
Had no problems to clone it and ran at the first attempt.
A scan before cloning showed zero bad sectors and that made me super happy.
However, the space seen was not 160GB but 149.1GB. Not that I care for having
11GB less, I am just a little worried if these 11GB are of bad sectors that have been
assigned to alternates. Can that be?
The old drive lasted over 18 years. I might not have them to live but I hope that this one
won't fail for at least 3-5 years.

Thanks for all!

Excellent value and product. Fast shipping.

It worked perfectly for me. A lot can go wrong in repairing a PC. Problems that may seem like a hard drive turn out to be something else. In my case, I knew the issue and this was a good quality cost-effective solution. I would buy again without reservation.Lire l'avis complet...

Runs like a Swiss watch!

It's a legacy Seagate product produced in Thailand in 07 that borrows quality & reliability from the Singapore production facility. It's beefy and hefty . Built to last.

Works well-very good value

I put this in my old 2004 HP desktop; it is thin and seems flexible as far as fitting into hard drive bays. This computer had a 160 Gb IDE drive originally and this is as good and probably faster. The price is right and it does the job well.Lire l'avis complet...
