Seagate BarraCuda 5TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 2.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 5400 RPM 128MB Cache for Computer Desktop PC (ST5000LM000)

I didn’t realize this drive was used when I purchased it, but it has been working well so far. I installed it in my eufy HomeBase to store local video recordings from my security cameras, and setup was quick and smooth. Performance has been stable, and it handles continuous recording without issues. Despite being pre-owned, it has performed reliably for my needs and serves as a good storage solution.

Excellent product, work perfect with my Eufy system. Also came one day earlier than it was supposed to arrive.

OMG. So delighted to get this product 2 days in advance before the Mon. Jan. 26th, 2026 delivery date and before the big winter snow storm Fern. Product and specifications were exact and compatible with my Eufy S380 Homebase storage system. The 2.5" dimension fit perfectly. I was somewhat cautious as it did not come with any screws to secure to the internal tray of the S380 Homebase system, but low and behold, this hard size snaps into the internal casing and doesn't move or shift upon inserting downward into SATA Slots. There is no need for the hard drive screws as 1.) The S380 doesn't come with them and 2.) The 2.5" drive snaps into the designated HD tray. Great idea with not having to mess around with tiny screws. So far it's been 4 days since receiving and installing and I'm very happy overall. Drive is quick, super quiet, and using the Eufy app very easy to format and begin continuous recording or setup for multiple recording events. Not sure how the seller got this product to my home in lightning time, but I'm not complaining. Kudos and shout outs to receiving my order, expediting so quickly, and delivering way ahead than I expected. Would definitely purchase from this vendor once again. I have 4 devices connected to my S380 homebase system and now thinking about some internal cameras to monitor if not home.

Ordered six of the 5TB variety back in June 2017. They're all members of an Intel RSTe RAID 5 array. I'm not certain if it's the Intel RSTe RAID or the drives, but they seem very very slow for what the specifications of the drive are. Slow I can live with, unreliable really bothers me. Less than six months in, one of the drives threw up several bad sectors. I marked the drive off as normal so the controller would rebuild the array and fix any parity errors. It took a little more than 24 hours for that to happen, but it succeeded. Then I told the controller to verify and repair. Again, a little more than 24 hours, but it was successful. Then a few hours after that, the troubled drive just stopped functioning completely. Currently waiting on Seagate to see if they're going to give me a new replacement, a refurb replacement, or nothing at all. Three stars because when they work, they work and the capacity is nice for the small form factor. I feel like I can't come down on Seagate too much, because at this point when you buy a hard drive you should know what you're getting into - nothing is guaranteed and luck of the draw seems to be how it works. Update 01/23/2019: Dropped to 1 star because the reliability is so poor with these drives that they are not worth the time. I always a very recent backup of my data, so data loss was not an issue for me. Though, without the backups, I most certainly would have lost something. Had six of them, with 5 active in a RAID 5 array and 1 assigned to be a hot spare. The final straw was having yet another drive go bad on me only to find out the hot spare died as soon as it was called into action. If you need to have even mediocre reliability, these drives are likely not for you.

I ordered an internal hard drive and was accidentally sent a hard drive that was not compatible with US products. After speaking with Seagate, who determined that I had the wrong hard drive I contacted the shipper who immediately sent me a new hard drive with a return label able to ship the original drive back. They have been so patient with me because I was not able to return the original drive purchased right away and notified them of such. They were so kind to understand the delay. This is a wonderful company and excellent customer service. Fast and prompt shipping. Should I need anything else that this company sells, I will definitely be purchasing from them. A highly recommend them and can contest to their commitment to customer satisfaction, and prompt and fair. They have excellent prices for the item that I needed. They are. AAA+

Lo instalé en un portátil Lenovo como HDD secundario, solo para almacenar los datos importantes ya que el SO y programas arrancan desde un SSD, y debo decir que este disco hace muy poco ruido y el nivel de lectura es bueno. Lo malo podría ser la capacidad que 1Tb da para guardar solo datos importantes (fotos, videos, y poquito más), pero es una opción económica y una marca muy fiable.

Installé sans problème... fonctionne comme prévu.

small and usable product!

Item came very quickly as described.

Livraison assez rapide, j'ai vérifié dès réception la date de garantie sur le site de Seagate: 21 Janvier 2021, je pense que la date d'achat doit compter pour la garantie de 2 ans. Le disque dur est extra pat, il se monte bien dans le caddy du disque dur qu'il doit remplacer. Vu son épaisseur, le bruit des têtes est amplifié par le support , mais cela reste très acceptable , juste un bruit de déplacement des têtes. Coté vitesse, il est aussi bon que le Western Digital qui avait 3 ans et qui commençait à avoir des signes de faiblesse, et surtout une grosse marque de chauffe sur l'étiquette supérieure.
