I bought this HDD for speed, size, and warranty, having a good price (at the time I bought it). According to Xbench measurements, read and write speeds on the outer partition are 228 GB/s and 235 GB/s, respectively, which are the best of any HDD I have owned. I use that partition as boot partition for an 2015 iMac and am pleased with the drive overall performance.

Great value based upon B&H’s price at time of purchase. No issues. Slightly more noisy than WD Black drives, but quieter than HGST NAS drives.
Laura Nikolaus (verified owner) –
We bought two drives to make a Raid 1 mirror in a NAS. No issues and very straight forward during the installs.

I’ve had good luck with both Deskstar and Ultrastar drives over the last 8 years, in fact they all still function, so that was my natural choice, these are used in a NAS that runs 24/7. Some people have said they are noisy, while they might be a little noisier than IronWolf or EXOS drives, the difference is very minimal and not an issue unless the drive sits right next to you all day long.

Drive is quiet and efficient.

Great value and perfect for accesible archiving storage.

I didn’t know about 4Kn drives. Nothing in the description says about this. It doesn’t spin down. There are only certain enclsoures that will work with this drive. I’ve tried 3 different enclosures and the drive will not stop spinning. I would love to send it back and get another seagate ironwolf. My other seagate ironwolfs i have no issues with.

Replaced an aged (still functional) standard hard drive with no hitch, snarl, or surprise. Works smoothly.

This is the fourth 8TB HGST heritage Ultrastar drive in my inventory. The first two were Hitachi branded, the last two were Western Digital branded though the third one had a WD label, but the firmware reports an Hitachi heritage model number. I’ve been happy with the performance of the drives and I’ve had no failures. I use two of these disks to archive video and audio projects with identical copies on two backup disks stored in a different location in containers. Since I edit on solid state disks, I have a drive power switch that allows me to keep these disks powered off until I need to backup the project. WD has changed the bottom mounting screw pattern to the traditional 3.5 hard drive pattern. HGST Ultrastars had an unusual pattern that probably worked for large OEMs selling into the data center market, but was a poor fit for my particular case mounting methodology. Now, I keep the WD Ultrastars in the machine and use the older HGST drives for offline backup.

ONLY buy enterprise class hard drives, they cost more but are worth it. Never seen one fail yet… Too bad SATA 3 is still the connection option, for these massive drives, it takes a loooonnggg time to transfer a lot of data.
Morris Sipes (verified owner) –
Revising my earlier review. The drive does indeed spin down depending on enclosure. But from what I’ve been reading better to leave it spinning all the time. Using it and it seems fine. Yes it clicks and clacks and is kinda loud but it’s a 7200 rpm and I think that’s normal.

It’s working as good as it shows… satisfied…

I only buy to types 3.5 drives WD and Seagate in 3.5 size they just work
Shaniya Lind (verified owner) –
Perfect for cold or hot data storage. Exactly what I expected. Solid Construction.
Reinhold Beatty (verified owner) –
I bought this to store all my photos, and 14TB gives me a lot of storage. It works fast, but it is much noisier than other slower and smaller internal drives — especially when I copied over a couple of terrabytes of files to it from an external drive. And the 5-year retail warranty is nice to have. I would have rated this 5 stars if it were quieter.
Jordyn Nikolaus (verified owner) –
I always use to buy Hitachi drives. For 20+ years it is all I would put in my computers. Then they were bought out by WD. They are using Hitachi’s technology so I buy WD now. Haven’t had any problems. With this drive I now have 22 terabytes of video storage in my current desk top computer. This one seems a little faster than my two 6 terabyte drives.

It’s working as good as it shows, minus one star due to there is one HDD is not working in the original delivery but B&H does replace very quickly
Francesco Satterfield (verified owner) –
Does everything you expect a hard disk to do. Delivered fast, packaged well.
Aurelio Berge (verified owner) –
I use these drives to create a pair of backups of all my files, particularly images.They are reliable ( never had a failure) and cost effective. B&H ships these out with 2 day delivery! Very happy with my purchase and B&H!

This drive is very fast! Crystal Disc Mark ratings 64 gb test: Write Speed – 258 MBS, Read – 267 MBS over USB 3! I gave this drive 4 stars as I can’t speak to the longevity of it yet since I just started to use it. I am presently using it as a backup drive in an external enclosure.
