Access time
Overall performance a bit slower than the competitions.
May need firmware update
Performance is a little below the competition.
May not work with all motherboard chipsets
Early drives had a non-destructive write flaw
Random access times slower than the WD Caviar Black and Seagate HD103UJ terabyte drives.
Price may be of concern to some general consumers
The Barracuda’s burst speeds aren’t quite on par with Western Digital’s. That’s a minor detail
But a detail nonetheless.
Default Jumper at 1.5 Gb/s
Expensive
None that we could find.
500 GB version provides best bang for buck value
No feature that really sets the drive above the crowd.

None.
The Seagate Barracuda ST31500341AS mostly is in a class of its own when compared to just about any drive we have tested so far. The data transfer rates are huge and the results are reflected not only in the synthetic tests, but also the real-world fil...

Expensive, Heats up a little.
In the real-world copy test, we created a 1 GB RAM drive using Farstone Virtual Hard Drive Pro and used this as a host drive for testing the read and write speeds of the Barracuda. This eliminates the need to have a faster host drive and gives the abs...

La familia Barracuda 7200.11 se caracteriza por las unidades de mayor espacio, 1 y 1,5 TB. Cuando hace apenas un año necesitábamos 2-3 unidades para cubrir tal cantidad de información, actualmente podemos hacerlo con una unidad, además...
Sinceramente es un disco que me ha dejado con la boca abierta (no se preocupen! Ya la cerré). Tiene todo lo que esperábamos en aquellos años pasados de un disco duro de 1 Terabyte. Sus características como grabación perpendicular...
