Seagate3TB Enterprise Capacity SAS 6Gb/s 128MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive (ST3000NM0023)

Just wanted to make sure you all know that this drive IS indeed new, just not produced recently. They stopped manufacturing these drives to make room for higher capacity, newer technology. That being said, I had a drive go down in a RAID 5 from a few years back that has been going non stop and needless to say, I needed to replace the drive. I found this one and it fit the bill perfect and a lot less than the 300+ I paid when I bought them originally. Now if i intended on upgrading, I would get a bunch of 8TB or higher capacity drives but I didn't want to go another grand for a 50% utilization Raid anyway. I just needed to get files off the raid in the first place that weren't accessable previously... and now I can do that, and the drive is performing as it should...If you need to replace a drive in a RAID, this is a no brainer, the drive is in perfect condition and works like it should. If you are starting anew, I wouldn't recommend going this route unless you buy a bunch extra, because THEY AREN'T MADE ANY MORE. That being said I highly recommend seller and this drive regardless...

Been using these drives for months without issue. They’re relatively quiet and run cooler than other HDDs I’ve bought for a NAS unit I have.

If you need a spacious spinning disk, go for the brand that does it best! This is a solid drive with exceptional transfer rates.

I ordered six 8Tb SAS drives for a customer server. One failed in about six months and Maestro Holdings responded to my email request for assistance immediately. I sent the info, they sent a return shipment tag, I sent the bad drive out and had the replacement delivered in SIX DAYS! That included the shipping time back to them. I was never without fault tolerance on my server as the installation had a hot spare.I'll be continuing to do business with them.Thanks Brad and the "Maestro Team"!

Bought SAS by mistake. Make sure you click SATA! I bought this thinking it was compatible with your average SATA hard drive enclosure... Nope, my bad.This is a special type of drive that only works in server-class hard drive controllers that cost hundreds of dollars.Make sure you choose SATA. Ugh, they should have SATA as the default, not SAS.

I have used many of these drives and had a fairly high failure rate. The RMA was easy and so long as these are used in a redundant array are a great buy.

Great drive. Great price. Product was the same as advertised. Billing was accurate. Delivery was on time. I would definitely use this company again.

Excellent product

I can confirm this is a brand new disk made in 2016. H710 of my Dell Poweredge R720 is super happy with it

Livraison très rapide et conforme. Pas encore resté. Attention : SAS

Non compatibile con synology DS 918+.

Bei der von antarris angebotenen und über Amazon ausgelieferten Seagate Constellation ES.3 Festplatte handelte es sich - entgegen der Produktbeschreibung - nicht um Neuware, sondern um ein Recertified Product. Für derart aufbereitete Festplatten entfällt die ansonsten fünfjährige Herstellergarantie. Das Produkt entsprach somit nicht dem Angebot, war zudem überteuert und ging zurück. Der Käufer fühlt sich getäuscht. Auf die Produktbewertung bleibt die problematische Beschreibung ohne Einfluss. Mehrere Seagate Constellation ES.3 arbeiten im Raid bei mir seit Jahren schnell, relativ leise und sehr zuverlässig.
