Seagate FireCuda HDD 8TB Internal Hard Drive HDD - 3.5 Inch CMR SATA 6Gb/s 7200RPM 256MB Cache 300TB/year with Rescue Services (ST8000DX001)

Unfortunately this product didn’t match the description or factory damaged.

Satisfied with purchase.

Game loads exactly where you left off !!! This is what I needed all along !!! Easy install just pull up a YouTube video of the installation !!

Bought this for my PS5, which loves it. Shame the Bescar armour finish is lost in the PS5 , but would look great on your motherboard.

This product installs easily. And it’s speed is AWESOME. I chose the 1 TB model which is probably small for real gamers, but for me is perfect!

So easy to fit and works a treat. Not noticed and performance issues after installing and moving some games over.

For my preliminary assessment I used an ineo technology enclosure attached through my Thunderstick port on an Asus Republic of Gamers laptop with an i7-6700HQ cpu @ 2.6 GHz running a Win10 Home operating system. I then used CrystalMark software to measure the performance of the original installed 1Tb HDD C drive and the SSD 2 Tb Firecuda mounted in the enclosure. The original HGST 7200rpm drive was pretty darn slow. Sequential read was about 111 Mb/s and sequential write was about 106 Mb/s. Random 4k file reads were 0.7 Mb/s and 0.83 Mb/s for writes. In comparison the Firecuda was 1,026 Mb/s and 999 Mb/s for sequential reads and writes, respectively, and more amazingly the random 4k files reads were 144 Mb/s and the writes were 136Mb/s. Pretty impressive numbers for a drive attached in an enclosure! The firecuda got warm. but not hot during testing. Npw the difficult decision I have is whether to keep the Firecuda for fast backups of data or replace my original HDD with it. Or maybe just get another Firecuda.

Montage facile sur ps5 et rapidité de chargement.

Ce SSD et bien compatible pour la PS5 pour copier et lancer des jeux PS5 avec un taux de performance superieur au SSD interne de la PS5. Il faut juste se renseigner et linstaller en interne dan la console et non dans un disque dur externe. je suis passé de 700 Giga à 1,7 Tera sur mon disque systeme PS5 et les jeux PS5 se lancent encore plus rapidement. Au top !

Works perfectly well for my PS5. Hope it can last without any issues for at least 2 years!
