    Seagate 2TB FireCuda Gaming SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive) - 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Hard Drive (ST2000DX002)

    • I recommend this drive for fast and expansive storage.
    • For PC builders, the ideal storage setup apart from entirely using SSDs (which is not practical at this point in time due to their high cost) is to have a smaller SSD as your primary OS & software boot disk, a large HDD for file storage and multimedia playback, and an SSHD exclusively for gaming
    • Fast efficient storage and gives a touch more speed than just platter based drives
    • It’s a lot of fast storage for a decent price.
    • Cheap, fast, high capacity storage
    • Works xbox one hard drive storage better Seagate firecuda 2TB
    • Fast, inexpensive storage....until about 3 weeks later
    • Cheap, fast, high capacity storage
    • Great storage and speed for the price.
    • I see the point of having your OS and other smaller programs on a primary SSD then loading large sized games onto another drive however, an SSHD will give you the best of both worlds (with slightly decreased performance compared to the SSD of course) and you don't have to have two separate storage devices which simplifies things
    • Great speed and storage for a good price.
    • At this point I'm upgrading to an SSD; I will use the FireCuda as a fast, reliable storage drive
    • Not nearly enough storage on the SSD side to appreciably improve it over a standard HD at 7500 rpm.
    • This hard drive has a nice speed with SATA 3 and it has nice storage space for all of my PC games.
    • So everybody knows that an SSD is the optimal storage device for gaming
    • Until the inevitable evolution to more economical full solid-state storage, they provide the higher capacity of a traditional HDD with some increase in access speed
    • Nice storage fast and quiet works great
    • Speedy and large storage
    • With in a few minutes, I had increased my storage by almost 2GB (the formatted size is always less that the stated size).It is important to know that this is an SSHD, which has a small amount of non-moving storage coupled with the traditional moving hard drive storage.
    • By no means an ssd, but fast enough and enoug storage for what I want
    • This drive plus a cheap i5 skylake, some memory and a nvidia GTX 1060 or ATI's latest gamble would get a great start and have a decent storage capacity for the larger games being released
    • Recommend if your looking for affordable local storage solution.
    • I have enough storage and with the 7200
    • if u want storage and performance this seagate is perfect for use
    • Fantastic option for adding inexpensive fast storage to gaming PC or console..... highly recommended
    • can say i feel a super big performance...but love the storage I have available with it
    • Best alternitive you can get to expensive SSD’s
    • Thousands of I/O Error according to DriveDX
    • Good as it described
    • Maybe now as fast as a true SSD but client needed speed and space.
    • Not as fast as a
    • Awesome, perfect price point , perfect capacity, easy setup, not as fast as an
    • For the ones that would run in Windows, it would start and then at some point start moving so slow as to never complete.
    • I thought I would have to ante up $500+ for a 2TB SSD, but I have no hiccups with this drive and everything is as smooth and fast as I would dream
    • Again, not as great as my SSD, and not quite as great as I was hoping
    • Not as fast as a
