Review: This review is for the Seagate 6TB BarraCuda Pro. - The drive is a bit price, but with 2 years data and 5 years hardware warranty it is somewhat justified. I have a six years old ASUS P6T Deluxe MB with SATA II only. It was plugged as a second drive with the boot through a SSD with WIN 7 64bit OS and it was recognized at once. To initialize, as with any new drive, one should go: Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Computer Management / Disk Management. In my case it showed as Disk 01 (disk 0 was the SSD - but it will depend on each port you are plugged and how many drives you have plugged). I chose to create an GPT partition that I didn't know would create an system MBR partition of some 264 Mb to manage the allocation units on the drive, no problem there, but be aware of it. About the marketing size of drives with more than 2Tb: Because one Byte is 8 bits and one KByte is 1024 bits (not 1000 bits). Nevertheless, the drive market kinda "steal" from us those 24 bits per Kb, thus when you have advertised a drive as having 6Tb it actually shows on the explorer and alike as having less than that, for the market counts ALL the bits that are there, including those 24 bits per Kb, but the OS (and the all the software that are) consider it not. In fact the drive has six thousand trillion BITS that are less than 6Tb as the unit goes. Thus with larger drives the difference grows accordingly and It is starting to let some people "mad" about it. I saw one review complaining about the 10Tb having only 9Tb. Perhaps it is time for the manufactures, at least with the larger than 2Tb drives, to star to market is with the actual system Kb and not the total bits. All and all it is a GREAT drive and I recommend it. Lets hope the price will go down as the new year arrives. Review: Runs as fast as my hybrid drive with a whole lot more storage. - I have an M.2 boot drive in my Windows 10 PC but it only has 500GB of storage. I bought the 6TB BarraCuda drive to replace a nearly full 2TB hybrid drive that was almost full and starting to run poorly. I was worried that the BarraCuda would have a hard time keeping up with my Steam games but it works just as well and in some cases better than my old hybrid drive. ## Features - Fastest Hard Drive delivers 7200RPM spin speed along with sustained data rates up to 250MB/s and burst data rates of 6Gb/s - Ultimate HDD Data Recovery Service: bundled with Seagate Rescue Data Recovery Services, this drive is protected for 2 years against any mechanical, accidental, or natural disaster - 5- year product warranty and 300TB/year workload limit - Compatible with Creative pros systems, Desktop or all-in-one PCs, Home servers, Entry-level direct-attached storage devices (DAS) - The available storage capacity may vary. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01LOOJBH8 | | Additional Features | Ultimate HDD Data Recovery Service | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,673 in Internal Hard Drives | | Brand | Seagate | | Built-In Media | BarraCuda® Pro 6TB SATA | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 128 | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Connectivity Technology | SATA | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 139 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 750 Megabytes Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 6 TB | | Enclosure Material | Aluminum | | Form Factor | 3.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00763649110843 | | Hard Disk Description | Mechanical Hard Disk | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 3.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Serial ATA | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 7200 RPM | | Hard-Drive Size | 6 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | SATA 6.0 Gb/s | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Installation Type | Internal Hard Drive | | Item Type Name | Seagate BarraCuda Pro Performance Internal Hard Drive SATA HDD 6TB 6GB/s 128MB Cache 3.5-Inch (ST6000DM004) | | Item Weight | 1.72 Pounds | | Manufacturer | SEAGATE | | Mfr Part Number | ST6000DMB04 | | Model Name | BarraCuda Pro | | Model Number | ST6000DMB04 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 6 Gigabits Per Second | | Special Feature | Ultimate HDD Data Recovery Service | | Specific Uses For Product | business, personal | | UPC | 763649117897 763649098165 763649110843 | | Warranty Description | 5 Year Limited Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Seagate - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity Technology:** SATA - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 6 TB - **Hard Disk Description:** Mechanical Hard Disk - **Hard Disk Form Factor:** 3.5 Inches - **Hard Disk Interface:** Serial ATA - **Hard Disk Size:** 6 TB - **Installation Type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special Feature:** Ultimate HDD Data Recovery Service ## Images ![Seagate BarraCuda Pro Performance Internal Hard Drive SATA HDD 6TB 6GB/s 128MB Cache 3.5-Inch (ST6000DM004) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81pEOhsrOTL.jpg) ![Seagate BarraCuda Pro Performance Internal Hard Drive SATA HDD 6TB 6GB/s 128MB Cache 3.5-Inch (ST6000DM004) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YUyjVRawL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This review is for the Seagate 6TB BarraCuda Pro. *by C***L on January 1, 2017* The drive is a bit price, but with 2 years data and 5 years hardware warranty it is somewhat justified.

I bought the 6TB BarraCuda drive to replace a nearly full 2TB hybrid drive that was almost full and starting to run poorly.

Each year's worth of data now in the TB range. This one is fast and super quiet. Seagate still makes great drives. The rule is simple. You never ever have too much memory, speed or storage. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/35581728-seagate-barracuda-pro-performance-internal-hard-drive-sata-hdd-6tb](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/35581728-seagate-barracuda-pro-performance-internal-hard-drive-sata-hdd-6tb) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
