1TB 3.5" SATA 5400rpm Desktop Internal Hard Disk Drive (brand of the hard drive may be of any kind)

I picked up these drives for my Ugreen NAS - all arrived safely and in excellent working condition. All have been installed, formatted, and working just fine. Ordered four, received three WD Green 1TB, and one generic WD 1TB. Great value for money at under £20 each! Edit: June 2026 Update - all four drives are still working great! Bought another two for a smaller NAS project.

This item arrived quickly, but was faulty, so I filled in the supplied form and returned it. I was then pleasantly surprised to receive a replacement within a few days (both were Seagate devices, which was nice). It has now been installed and seems to be working well.

Good

Had to format it twice but afterwards worked as expected

Early days, obviously, but punctual delivery and works!

I bought two, I bought a USB disc hub it didn't work I returned the hub and bought two caddies, they didn't work. I had formatted one of these hard drives I bought, and assumed the other one would also be OK. Plugged both into the NAS drive and left it. One light green and one red. Today I wasted hours trying to get it working. It doesn't and the return window has closed.

A brand new Seagate Barracuda 7200 rpm 1TB arrived, well packaged (by Amazon) in just a couple of days. There were no SATA cables or screws provided (but they are very cheap, and I found some data and power cables in another PC) but still this was an absolute bargain. The new drive was installed (into a Windows 10 file server I've made out of an old but perfectly serviceable PC) in about 5 minutes and it works just fine. The HD runs quietly and has no faults; it is out of warranty (with Seagate) but for £26 delivered that is well worth the risk.

It looks good, I want to have patience to install it , I was expecting some instructions, on the insertion of the device and what to do, this purchase is a DIY exploration , trying to carefully attach it to the internal compartment of my computer. I would have to hope and pray that it works. I would then write about it again. It arrived by delivery planned by Amazon at a charge. I was unable to photograph, transfer the photo from my phone to my computer, as I dont know how? If I could only learn how to do this, I would be be able to share a lot about so many different products that I have bought!!
