  • Price may be of concern to some general consumers
  • After reviewing the benchmarks you might think that in some areas the Seagate Barracuda 1TB ES.2 does not perform as well as its older counter part. Let us draw your attention to the fact that in all the primary benchmark results (i.e.; Sequential Rea...
