Check your invoices. I ordered 3, it clearly showed 3 x $279.99 at checkout and in the cart but I was charged at 1x $279.99 and 2 x $329.99!And now that I notice, if you go to the site and go to checkout with 3 in the cart, it will show 3 x $279.99, but the total actually adds up differently with two being $329.99.Either website error or price deception.
Thanks. I ended up just doing two separate orders to get the same price. Hopefully these will be reliable - first time buying a seagate
Have you bought any IBM hard drives in late 1999 early 2000? Those are disasters. Quantum was way better.
It was pretty much just the IBM 75GXP that had issues. Other models tended to be quite good. It was just that one line that destroyed their reputation. I'd challenge the assertion that Quantum was way better. I saw more dead (~2.5GB) Quantum Fireballs than any other brand. They were easily the biggest contributor to my neodymium magnet collection.

i bought one i am the source
they come with CMRs exo
the 20TB is SMR , seagate is remaking SMR trash drives. it was a FP deal like 240 after tax.
i manage over 1PiB i know what i am talking about
How did you determine it was SMR? I still haven't seen any evidence to support that claim.

So CMR is the good one and SMR/HAMR are bad?
CMR is definitely more desirable than SMR. HAMR is a different aspect. CMR and SMR drives may be HAMR. HAMR is very new and I would consider it unproven.

Think that is a POV based on application...
People will almost always be better off with a CMR as a generality, but the negative attributes of SMR can be essentially invisible to people that write once, read many if I understand correctly.
HAMR, don't understand that well enough yet, anyone have a concise executive summery between the various brand iterations of heat assisted writing, and what the Pros/Cons are VS CMR or how it similar/different with SMR?
SMR isn't necessarily terrible for sequential writes. It's (uncached) random writes that are the big problem.
HAMR is Seagate's new technology for packing data more tightly. IMHO, it's too new to really know how things are going to turn out. I wouldn't be surprised if it has growing pains. I have absolutely nothing to back this up but it seemed to me that Seagate's unreliable period (~15-20 years ago) started around when PMR began being implemented.
HAMR is not an alternative to CMR/SMR. They are different things. Both CMR and SMR drives can use HAMR.
Attachment 16954735Got one, it appears to be an ST24000NM002H SEAGATE EXOS X24 24tb.
Can't see that attachment, it just shows up as literally "[ATTACH)16954735(/ATTACH]" (had to change two of the brackets to parentheses so that it wouldn't try to format it as a link).
Can you see take a picture of the label or see if it mentions anything like "Class 1 consumer laser product"?
That was the same poster that was saying only 30TB+ drives were using HAMR, that these 24TB are not using HAMR, and that they are using CMR but then now they are saying all CMR drives use HAMR? A bit confused now..
Deal might be expired now. Showing up as "Back-Ordered" with no expected time frame and no further orders being taken. Hope people post their shucking experiences.
