Hello, I just bought a used HDD (Seagate BarraCuda 1TB) but it doesn't work on my PC. At first I thought I was scammed and it was dead but the HDD works perfectly fine in another PC. I can also feel the HDD vibrating when I start the PC so it seems fine. I tried updating drivers, changing...

Currently using a seagate dashboard continuous backup. The issue is it's filled up my entire 1tb drive somehow, yet I only have 200gb of data total on my pc. I'm looking into new options. What i'd like to know is if there's a way to back up to a single external HDD, without having to delete the...

Hello my HDD has some hanging problems and I want them to get fixed. I tested it on games: GTA V is bad, CS:S runs smoothly, CS:GO has it too, NFS Carbon a little bit and other lighter games too. The point is I hate massive frame and response drops for a 12 seconds period. I tried eith Windows...

I'm looking into buying a new HDD since my current one just died, it's a 2TB Black WD HDD. Based off of PcPartPicker, the Seagate Barracuda models seem to be the best deal with good reviews. Comparing the 3TB and the 4TB models, their prices are pretty much the same. Yet, I looked at...
