**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.
Having purchased my first BarraCuda hard drive 6 years ago and subsequently adding three more to my collection, I can attest to the enduring durability and longevity that sets Seagate apart. As a seasoned professional in a demanding field, the peace of mind provided by the BarraCuda's proven track record is truly invaluable. Unlike the whimsical nature of past hard drives that left me file-less in moments of need, the BarraCuda stands resolute, safeguarding my crucial information with unwavering reliability.
The Seagate BarraCuda 4TB Internal Hard Drive continues to impress with its exceptional performance, facilitating quick and efficient file transfers regardless of the project's complexity. Whether I'm engrossed in intensive design tasks or indulging in multimedia content, the speed and efficiency of this hard drive remain consistently outstanding, enhancing my workflow and overall productivity.
Its speed of 5400 RPM and its impressive 256 MB cache provide an agile and efficient response, allowing you to load and access files quickly and efficiently. This hard drive is ideal for both conventional users and those who require more intensive storage, such as gamers or creative professionals.
Plus, Seagate's frustration-free packaging makes it easy to set up and get up and running, providing a hassle-free experience from the moment of purchase. The Seagate BarraCuda 4TB is a reliable, high-performance option that stands out for its capacity, speed, and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for expanding your desktop storage.

In depth explanation:
This hard drive overall performs amazing and I did not face any issues when it arrived. Installation was easy, do mind when purchasing that you will need to acquire SATA and Power cables for it (Ideally they should come with your motherboard or PSU purchase). The hard drive write speed is okay for downloading games on if you have a Gigabit connection. It is maxed out on 250mbps write speed so take note of that if you have fast wifi and would like to write faster then 250mbps. Another test I have performed is loading into video games, specifically talking about Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart. This game is known for requiring fast SSD's. The performance of read speed of the hard drive allowed the game to play with minor delays when playing through scenes with heavy world loading required. In other instances such as Hogwarts Legacy, this hard drive performed well when loading in scenes like walking outside from the castle .
Overall, the hard drive I would suggest to be purchased if you are looking to store heavy files and games that do not crazy loading speeds, I would suggest purchasing this hard drive as a second storage option. I have attached a screen shot in addition to stress the hard hard drive during downloading of the game.
