It's probably more for Enterprise style environments.

That's out of my league for sure. I have been collecting videos, screenshots and downloads for over 5 years and I haven't filled up a 500 GB drive yet.

oh I agree...and the 3.5"profile isn't ideal, and I'm guessing the write performance is horrible versus the capacity of the decode.

Personally I have never had a Seagate HDD fail on me. In fact, I am still using 500 GB Seagate Barracuda drives I bought from Dell way back in 2008 or there abouts. They have been spinning every minute my PC is turned on too since I have my drives set to 'Never' turn off. I had let the 1 TB Seagate HDD I use for redundant data shut down for power saving but it took so long to spinup I was getting the dreaded "Stopped Responding" messages every single time I tried to access it so now it runs constantly. I think shutting down and having to spin back up puts more strain on a HDD than having it run 24/7.

I've many Seagate drives in my home PC...their consumer stuff is ok...I'm not a fan of their enterprise drives these days...but they're improving again.

I've got a stack of 4x 750GB Barracuda 7200.11 3.5" drives at home that all have serious SMART errors or won't spin up at all. I do have a 5th that works - but the label on it says "Certified Refurbished" because I was "lucky" enough to have it fail under warranty LOL. Now I don't trust it for anything useful. I've got 2x Barracuda LP 2TB in my Tivos that's been going strong for well over a year now (knock on wood) but I got 'em cheap and if they fail no huge loss. My server is running 4x Hitachi Ultrastar 2TB that have been going strong for 3 years straight now and have survived being moved between 3 different servers. Those HGST drives are champs. At work is where I see the big picture. Our desktops are Lenovo "tiny" desktops that run 2.5 HDDs OR SSHD (Seagate 500G Hybrid Drives). We're on a 3 year replacement schedule so nothing is older than 3 years. I generally see 2x of the Seagate based computers fail a month. The other HDDs based ones are 500G HGST and I get one failure ever 3-4 months. I hear lots of good stories about Seagate drives - but I just can't trust 'em.
