Review: Perfect for combining multiple hard drives of data. - The Seagate ST8000DM008 BarraCuda 8TB is a standard 3.5-inch internal hard drive designed for mass storage needs in desktop computers. In this unbiased review, we will assess its various aspects to provide a comprehensive overview. **Storage Capacity (4/5):** With a whopping 8TB of storage space, the BarraCuda offers an abundance of room to store your files, games, and media. It's an excellent choice for users who require extensive storage for large media libraries, backups, or extensive data. **Performance (3/5):** The BarraCuda 8TB is primarily designed for storage purposes, so it's not as fast as SSDs or high-performance hard drives. It operates at 5400 RPM, which is a bit slower compared to 7200 RPM drives. While it provides decent performance for sequential data transfers, it may not be the best choice for tasks that demand quick access times or frequent data retrieval. **Reliability (4/5):** Seagate, as a well-established manufacturer, has a history of producing reliable storage devices. The BarraCuda series is known for its durability and dependability. However, like all mechanical hard drives, it is subject to wear and tear over time, and there is always a risk of failure. It's advisable to have proper backups in place when using any mechanical drive for important data. **Noise Levels (3.5/5):** The BarraCuda 8TB is relatively quiet during regular operation but can produce some noise, especially when accessing data. This may not be an issue in a desktop setup but could be noticeable in a quiet environment. **Installation (4/5):** Installing the BarraCuda is a straightforward process. It utilizes the standard 3.5-inch form factor, making it compatible with most desktop systems. Users with basic knowledge of PC hardware should have no trouble fitting it into their setup. **Value (3.5/5):** In terms of cost per gigabyte, the BarraCuda 8TB offers a reasonably good value, especially for users who require a large amount of storage space. However, it's important to remember that the price of SSDs has been steadily decreasing, and if you value performance and responsiveness, you might consider investing in a smaller SSD for your primary storage and supplementing it with a secondary HDD like the BarraCuda for mass storage. **Conclusion:** The Seagate ST8000DM008 BarraCuda 8TB is a capacious internal hard drive, well-suited for users with substantial storage needs, such as media enthusiasts, content creators, or those who require extensive backups. It offers reliability, straightforward installation, and decent value in terms of storage capacity. However, it is not the fastest drive on the market, and its performance may not meet the expectations of users who prioritize speed and responsiveness. Consider your specific storage requirements and performance expectations before deciding if the BarraCuda 8TB is the right choice for your computing needs. Review: great bulk storage drive no complaints - Needed a big drive for a media server and this was the obvious pick at this price point, 8 terabytes for that cost is honestly kind of wild. It's been quiet and totally reliable, shows up fine in the OS, and transfers at the speeds you'd expect from a 5400 RPM drive. If you're not looking for SSD performance and just want a ton of space that works this is exactly what you want. ## Features - Store more, compute faster, and do it confidently with the proven reliability of BarraCuda internal hard drives - Build a powerhouse gaming computer or desktop setup with a variety of capacities and form factors - The go to SATA hard drive solution for nearly every PC application from music to video to photo editing to PC gaming - Confidently rely on internal hard drive technology backed by 20 years of innovation; Max sustained transfer rate OD(MB/s): 190 MB/s - Migrate and clone data from old drives with ease using our free Seagate DiscWizard software tool ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07D9C7SQH | | Additional Features | Data Recovery Service | | Best Sellers Rank | #2 in Internal Hard Drives #5 in Computer Internal Components | | Brand | Seagate | | Built-In Media | BarraCuda® 4TB SATA | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 256 | | Color | PC | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Connectivity Technology | SATA | | Customer Package Type | Frustration-Free Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (104,317) | | Data Transfer Rate | 190 Megabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 4 TB | | Enclosure Material | Aluminum, Glass, Or Ceramic | | Form Factor | 3.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00763649128220 | | Hard Disk Description | Mechanical Hard Disk | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 3.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | SATA 6 GB/s | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 5400 RPM | | Hard-Drive Size | 4 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | SATA 6.0 Gb/s | | Installation Type | Internal Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 5.79"L x 4"W x 0.79"Th | | Item Type Name | Seagate BarraCuda Internal Hard Drive 4TB SATA 6Gb/s 256MB Cache 3.5-Inch - Frustration Free Packaging (ST4000DM004) | | Item Weight | 1.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Seagate Bare Drives | | Media Speed | 4 TB | | Model Name | ST4000DMZ04 | | Model Number | ST4000DMZ04 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 190 Megabytes Per Second | | Specific Uses For Product | business, personal | | UPC | 763649128220 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 Years | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Seagate - **Color:** PC - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity Technology:** SATA - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 4 TB - **Hard Disk Description:** Mechanical Hard Disk - **Hard Disk Form Factor:** 3.5 Inches - **Hard Disk Interface:** SATA 6 GB/s - **Installation Type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special Feature:** Data Recovery Service ## Images ![Seagate BarraCuda 4TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 3.5 Inch Sata 6 Gb/s 5400 RPM 256MB Cache For Computer Desktop PC – Frustration Free Packaging ST4000DMZ04/DM004 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ijXHv0jHL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this 7200 or 5400rpm?** A: Only the 1 TB (#ST1000DM010) and 2 TB (#ST2000DM008) models are 7200, all the larger models are 5400. Both the llisted speed and model number change in the product description as you pick different disk size options. This is consistent with Seagate's website -- From the home page, drill down through (or search for) Internal / Hard Drives / BarraCuda - Learn More, and then click the 3.5 inch models tab (NOT the 3.5 inch PRO models tab). Then click on the data sheet next to any model to get a PDF with a table containing all of the models along with their drive speeds and other specs.. **Q: Is a sata cable included in the package?** A: Cables not included. You can buy a SATA data cable and likely the appropriate power cable for your computer right here on Amazon. Depending on your power supply, the power cable may already be connected to it in your computer -- some have that and some do not. **Q: Is this really 7200rpm? the model number suggests otherwise.** A: Only the 1TB and 2TB HDDs in this series are 7200RPM. The higher capacity drives are 5400RPM and only intended as data drives. When using the 5400RPM drives you should have a separate drive that is either a 7200RPM HDD, a NVMe drive or an SSD for the operating system/as the boot drive. 5400RPM drives will boot a computer but will be noticeably slower than a 7200RPM HDD, a NVMe drive or an SSD. If your computer is new enough, an NVMe drive would be the best option. Otherwise, a SATA SSD would be the next best option. All three are available right here on Amazon. **Q: Is the 2tb (st2000dm008) internal hard drive cmr or smr?** A: I can't speak to SMR vs. CMR but since I see someone said this is unsuitable as a boot drive I will note that I have used this as the boot drive with a dual Windows 10-Xubuntu 20.04 OS install and it has worked fine. I personally think the load/unload cycle count is set way too liberally, it unloads way too quickly IMO but that is easy enough to deal with and even if it isn't dealt with the drive has about 3-5 years of load/unload cycles built into it and that is worst case where the computer is on constantly (my use case). Of course if you use it as a data only drive and use an SSD or M.2 for a boot drive this is a moot point as the drive is not accessed regularly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for combining multiple hard drives of data. *by I***S on October 19, 2023* The Seagate ST8000DM008 BarraCuda 8TB is a standard 3.5-inch internal hard drive designed for mass storage needs in desktop computers.
