Seagate came a little tardy into the bare drive consumer 3TB market, but with that extra time they were able to offer a solution that lets buyers make use of the drive's full potential without add-on hardware. By waiting for Intel driver support and o...
Abstract: The free space on our computers’ hard disks is getting consumed at a tremendous rate in our never-ending search for higher quality. HD video, 15-megapixel photographs, lossless audio, high-resolution textures of latest games are the reasons why we don’...
Write performances a little disappointing, Gets a bit hotter than the average drive
Although its write speeds aren't quite as good as the WD Caviar Black, the Barracuda XT is still a very good hard drive. It will, however, need to come down in price before it makes a serious and attractive alternative to the WD....
Performances un peu décevantes en écriture, Chauffe un peu plus que la moyenne
Un peu moins bon en écriture que le WD Caviar Black, le Barracuda XT affiche tout de même de bonnes performances. Il faudrait toutefois que son prix baisse pour qu'il constitue une réelle alternative à son concurrent direct....
Abstract: Of course the main advantage of a 7200 RPM drive is speed, and the XT definitely has that.

Du point de vue des performances pures, un disque dur se détache du lot, il s’agit du Caviar Black de Western Digital. Jamais mis à défaut, il s’offre le luxe d’être plus rapide qu’un VelociRaptor en tant que disque système, ce qui en ferait presque le...
Etter en runde i testmaskinen kan vi slå fast at det fremdeles er Western Digital Caviar Black som gjelder om du vil ha best mulig ytelse fra en harddisk med 2 TB lagringskapasitet. Seagate sitt bidrag er på ingen måter dårlig, men den kommer dessverr...
Abstract: For support Seagate offer a 5-Year warranty and consumers can contact them through email and live chat. A customer forum is also available. Finally we have the value aspect, currently the Barracuda XT is priced at a slightly lower level than other 2TB drives and..
