Review: Great performance, but pretty loud - I got the 14TB for my game collection (300+ on steam) and the performance is great, good load times though due to the size sometimes it takes a long time for steam to preallocate space for the games. It’s intermittent though. Has consistent read and write speeds. I’ve gotten over 300MB/s writes. I’d say the only down side of this drive is that it is really loud, I have mine in a full size atx case and it’s under a shroud with the PSU. It isn’t as much of an issue if you use headphones, though sometimes it’s still audible. Though I do keep my case on my desk at head level so I’m sure that affects the noise. Overall I’d definitely still recommend it.
Review: 3 years and still kicking - It's still going strong, 3 years later! Gets used almost every day, and I use it to store videos, pictures, and to boot older games

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great performance, but pretty loud
*by L***D on September 7, 2020*

I got the 14TB for my game collection (300+ on steam) and the performance is great, good load times though due to the size sometimes it takes a long time for steam to preallocate space for the games. It’s intermittent though. Has consistent read and write speeds. I’ve gotten over 300MB/s writes. I’d say the only down side of this drive is that it is really loud, I have mine in a full size atx case and it’s under a shroud with the PSU. It isn’t as much of an issue if you use headphones, though sometimes it’s still audible. Though I do keep my case on my desk at head level so I’m sure that affects the noise. Overall I’d definitely still recommend it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3 years and still kicking
*by B***3 on January 18, 2026*

It's still going strong, 3 years later! Gets used almost every day, and I use it to store videos, pictures, and to boot older games

### ⭐ Loudest HHD in 10 years (12TB)
*by P***L on November 25, 2023*

This review section is deceptive because it combines the review of all seagate hard drives from SSD to NAS to small and large HHDs. I purchased the item essentially based on the high review rating. It wasn’t until after the purchase that I realized that the rating was not unique to my item. It turns out that when I specifically filter for 12TB barracuda Compute PRO, the buyers are split based on performance. I am fully aware that HHD should make some noise, but this is unsettling loud. The drive is extremely loud and sounds like a motor (see video). Louder than any HHD I’ve had for the past 10 years. This using a brand new computer from 2023. I’ve reached to the seller in hopes that it is a user error situation, if so, I’ll update my review. If not, I’ll return the 12 TB HHD and look for something smaller with better reviews.
