Good overall performance and excellent throughput for day to day operations. If you are a hardcore gamer then you may want more throughput so go higher performance Nvmes like firecuda etc. but this one will meet your need in case you dont have any app which needs 2500Mbps+ write throughput.

Good product from barracuda but read and write speeds are not so good as mentioned
This is good quality product but I face some difficulties to install this because my motherboard is not detecting the SSD so that’s why I face so many problems after that I know what’s the problem and I fix it and it’s good SSD

Biggest issue is the screw for installation. Seagate should provide it. Don’t migrate or clone os to ssd but install a fresh one beacuse if u clone or migrate u will only get 60-80% speed. Overall performance of laptop which had oy hdd previous increases by 50% and smoothness can also be noticed. If u have more budget ho for Seagate Firecuda or Baracuda 510 which will give more speed. My laptop was Lenovo Ideapad S145-15IIL. Suggestion:- If u want to know whether ur lenovo laptop will support ssd then simply schedule a call at lenovo and they will help. My boot time with hdd:- 60secs – 2mins Boot time with Seagate Baracuda:- 3.5 Sec and even less(my boot code got corrupted somehow which is easy to fix). For gaming this ssd is not too preferable but go for Samsung or Baracuda 510 or Firecuda as they are faster. But U can definitely enjoy many games in this ssd. The 500gb varient gives 2300/900mbps speed and the 2TB varient gives 2400/1800mbps.

One of the best value for money product from Seagate, I thought that the ssd is not correct, then I went to computer stores for comparision, compared with WD ssd, HP, samsung, Kingston ssds. They sell sata m.2 ssd on 5000, HPs nvme ssd on 6500, what would I tell about samsung and kingston, both them are skyrocketed on prising. Also compared on online computer stores, they are little 200,300 cheap but last they include tax on it and make it more expensive, lastly thought, chalo kharid lete hai, kharab hoga to wapas ho jaega 😅😅.. But gajab gajab, best in class, used QLC nand chip, speeds are such nice, tested several times, no issues in large files transfer, speed are constant. Best 👍

Recieved the product in good shape and immediately installed it in my ROG Zephyrus M15. It was very easy to install. Note: Seagate doesn’t provide a screw to mount the SSD onto the slot. Luckily, the laptop manufacturer was kind enough to leave a screw in the empty PCIe slot which I used for installation. The available memory was 931.5 GB and I could configure it without any problems. I’m a heavy gamer and installed many games graphic intensive games like PUBG, Microsoft flight simulator 2020 onto the new drive and it was really smooth to play. It has more than enough speed for gaming. I feel this is a better option than the overpriced Samsung 970 and 980 Evo series. The read and write speeds are higher than Crucial’s and WD’s SSDs.

I had purchased a cheap gaming laptop that came with a HDD was struggling with extremly slow speed and found the bottleneck to be the HDD. I found that the laptop was compatble with NVMe SSD and purchased this product.
The difference is significant. It feels as though I’m using a new laptop. Things load instantly and my laptop is finally usable.

Bought it for my asus tuf. Was kinda hesitant as it didn’t have much reviews. And some SSDs such as WD were having issues with asus motherboards in general. So it came down to this as a last resort. And boy. Did this deliver. Does the job as mentioned. No false claims whatsoever. I would totally vouch for this product. . Hope this post was helpful

I have an Acer Nitro 5, i5 8th gen, GTX1050 with 1TB HDD. Basically only the hard drive speed was the issue with my laptop as I joined a WFH coding job. Every task from installing software to running IDEs and browsers ate up significant time.
Decided to go for the 500GB model for peace of mind. You can blindly go for a lower capacity one if you’re only going to be installing OSes (yep multiboot Linux distro users, I see you) on the SSD.
Definitely worth it on a sale, the speeds aren’t going to vary too much between different brands in this price range.

Previously I was using an HDD which had the rpm of 5400. As you can imagine it was pretty slow. Initially it was just a few random stutters here and there but the problems started occurring way more than I expected. That’s when I switched to an SSD, and believe me when I say this, it has drastically improved speeds, loading times, boot up process, and any other function that requires disk usage. Q. Is it good for gaming? Ans. Definitively, ((given you have the right hardware)) Q. Is it good value for money? Ans. I tried to wait out for a sale and managed to get this at Rs 5100. Your mileage may vary. But at this price segment you won’t get anything better than this. There is an option to go for crucial or WD blue sticks. All of them differ slightly but the read and write speeds are best on the Seagate One. Q. How do you install it? ((Is it easy to install?)) Ans. It is very easy to install. First you locate your M.2 drive slot. You remove the screw already threaded in place. Carefully take out the drive from the packaging. Insert the SSD in the M.2 slot at a 45° angle. Once it’s in, slowly lower it so that you can screw it down. Be gentle don’t apply too much pressure.
[Try to be in a static free environment. If you don’t have any equipment that you can use to ground yourself then just go outside and hug a tree. It might seem funny but it does the job.]
Final review. Q. Is it worth buying it? Ans. Absolutely yes. The difference in speeds is astonishing. You’ll notice it the moment you boot up. If you’re looking for an upgrade, look no further, you’ve got it right here. Cheers. Happy gaming.

I bought this for my Acer Nitro 5 laptop which is 3 years old. The laptop came with a 128 gb Sata M.2 SSD. I was not sure whether this Seagate Barracuda NVMe M.2 SSD will work for my Laptop, but i took a chance and it works well. The bench mark test shows 2300 MBps read and 1050 MBps write speeds. Though it is faster than the orginal Sata M.2 but i did not find any considerable change.
Anyways i wanted to upgrade the storage size of C drive as 128gb was not enough.
Overall its performance is good. No complaints. But should have tried the Crucial or Samsung brands.

I am using this SSD specifically for installing my games and I have to tell you the loading times have decreased by a huge amount. This also helps in reducing stutter in some games although any SSD would do that trick. If you want a high speed SSD under a budget don’t think twice just go for it.

Great SSD from Seagate. I installed it on my “MSI GL63 8RD” and it’s working flawlessly. At the end you will get only 930GB of storage from 1TB. which is OK, but this SSD is a bit pricey.

My first upgrade to a ssd device from HDD, so of course it’s a lot faster than hdd. Packaging was good, received on time. Pricing was my first concern as compared to normal sata3 ssd, since I got nvme in the price of ssd, so it was good. Since this is qlc but that didn’t matter to me as as I work a little on PC (the general stuff) & some gaming. Overall a good product.
