Rocking 8 of these from the same deal awhile back. No DOA's and all are humming along great in my server. Great bang for the buck right now. FYI these came to me as 2 singles boxes in a larger box. Very good packaging.
I heard these drives need a firmware upgrade or they will eat your children.
These drives are really bad and have problems with overheating and leak lubricant if you don't upgrade the BIOS.

I've been leaking lubricant for years--if only I knew I just needed to update my bios
I bought one a while ago from Dell for about 80 bucks shipped. Still works and it wasn't one from the batch that needed firmware upgrading. Seagate has a tool to check via S/N
My mom said I look cute.
how do you upgrade the firmware on a harddrive??
awesome deal for your **** collection
upgrading the firmware for a drive is not hard.. Not sure why everyone makes it out to be a difficult task.
I put this in my hard drive bay and energized my pc. Unfortunately this drive caused a massive explosion which ultimately lead to my house burning down, and I didn't even get the benefit of it eating my children that I expected. I should have read the fine print.
Maybe I should have updated the firmware and paid $80 for this like everyone else.
where does one obtain said firmware upgrade?

2 drives waste port spaces
Yes, #15. It's much better to put in just 3TB drive instead of 2x1.5TB drives. Let me know how that works for ya.
leak lubricant? lol
I believe these might have been part of the batch with bad firmware.. there were various drives in 500gb, 1t, and 1.5t sizes affected, and in different ways... Seagate did some out with a good fw for them.. you need to load the fw onto a CD/DVD and then boot from that CD/DVD with only the hard drives you want to flash on your SATA controller... it should in theory find them and flash them then reboot your PC. there's more info here:

I got 4 last week running in a RAID 5. So far, so good.

Got one of these drives and it's been working fine.
