Wanted to reduce the boot time of my 6 year old i3 laptop, and bought this SSD. It worked as expected, and laptop is much faster than before. 👍🏻

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.

O SSD não é compatível com a minha placa mãe. A devolução foi aceita e já foi coletado pelo correio,mas eu não sei o que virá em seguida. Vão estornar o valor da compra na minha conta corrente?

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 👍

Read and write speeds are nearly as describe. Try to register on Seagate india website for warranty, but website is not accepting the serial number.

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

I have Seagate Barracuda Q5 SSD 500GB as primary and WD SN 770 1TB as secondary. Copying around 260GB of data from one drive to another was completed under two minutes. Through-out the speed was almost 1GB per second. Quite impressive!
Can’t say how long this drive will work. My motherboard is Asus B650 Gaming Plus and it does provide two PCIE 4.0 and 3.0 port. Thank you, Seagate!

It smooth and worked well on my HP laptop. Everything is good. Just little storage removed. But it still better and cheap than Walmart.

Delighted with the SSD. Be sure to order an M.2 screw locally for $5.50. I ordered a bag of M.2 screws from overseas without realising (should be here by Christmas), which was dumb. Used the Cloning tool to copy the HDD to the SSD, which is now my boot Windows drive. The old HDD is now a secondary drive. Everything is ultra fast and quiet. Best thing I ever did.
