With their 6Gb/sec data rate, Serial ATA interface and Native Command Queuing (NCQ) technology, these highly advanced drives improve desktop performance.

  • 2TB / SATA 6.0 (6 Gb/s)
  • 7200 RPM / 32MB Cache / 3.5"
  • Barracuda hard drives from Seagate give you the Power of One. One terabyte per disc technology
  • Bigger - You get more bang for your buck with 1TB per disc technology. Increasing the capacity per disc means the highest capacity drives become more affordable, needing fewer discs to meet your capacity needs
  • Dimensions: 0.5"H x 4"W x 5.75"D, .09 lbs
  • 1-year limited manufacturer warranty


This internal hard drive has 2 TB of space, so you'll have plenty of room for music files, pictures, and more. This internal hard drive can be installed into a desktop computer, so you can upgrade your computer if you need it to hold more information. The 3.5-inch hard drive has SATA 6.0 and 7200 RPM, so it is quick and efficient.

  • Highly-advanced Drive
    • A laptop computer that is older may need an upgrade, and this 2 TB internal hard drive is an ideal choice. This drive has a 32-MB cache, a slim and compact 3.5-inch design, and 1 TB per disc. The 2 TB of space is especially useful for those who have a lot of files to store or a large music collection. With SATA 6.0, the 6-GB-per-second rate keeps your information running smoothly.
  • Large Capacity
    • This 2-TB drive has the room you need to store large amounts of files. The Serial ATA interface and Native Command Queuing also make it easier to access your files without glitches or slow responses from the technology.
  • Fast Responses
    • When you open a file, you don't want to wait minutes for the computer to respond. The 6-GB-per-second rate of the SATA 6.0 drive and the 7200 RPM and 32-MB cache all work together to make sure your files open as soon as you click on them. The high-capacity drives hold the information in one place, so you won't need to wait for the computer to access a new sector before being able to find your information, making this drive fast and convenient.

      I don't understand the complaints of the other reviewers -- I received a brand new drive in full retail packaging, not a refurb, and there was no need for a 24-hour formatting procedure, I just installed and used Seagate DiscWizard from the CD provided and the drive was good to go in just a few minutes. Just to play it safe, I did a Windows surface scan ("chkdsk /r" from the command prompt) which took a few hours and found no problems. This was a great bargain, especially since I ordered it through my local store and was thus able to apply a 20% in-store discount coupon.

      Seagate has a bad repution for unreliable hard drives during the 80-90s. It supposedly made improvements over the years.

      I gave them another chance this time around.

      Unfortunately, 2 HDDs I owned had to be returned because it was defective. Sadly, Seagate sent Refurbished HDDs instead of newer ones!

      I'll stay away until Seagate corrects its quality control issues on their hard drives!

      Regarding the other review...
      It does NOT take 24 hours to format a hard drive!

      It may take that long if you do MORE than simply "format" a hard drive like performing a sector scan or surface scan In Addition to formatting the hard drive.

      A "simple format" takes a few minutes at most!

              one terabyte per a disc technology.
              I plan on using it for my c; drive
              will I have 2 TB drive or will I have c & d drive.
              Asked on 7/12/2012 by George from Maryland

              1 answer

              • A:

                "One terabyte per a disc technology" simply refers to how the drive stores its data internally, and does not affect how the drive can be used by the end-user.

                You can format this drive as a single C: drive that contains 2 TB of data if you wish.

                It can be used with the Mac OS. You will need the Mac OS install CD/DVD if you are installing the hard drive as a bootable drive. If it is being installed on as a basic storage unit, the installation can be perform via the Mac OS itself. Detailed instructions are in the link below:
