Before anyone says its only 5400, slower than Barracuda etc. - This is a green drive. It's slower because it uses less power, runs cooler etc.
Has 2yr warranty and generally seen as more reliable imo.

The barracuda is super fastt! 5400rpm is a no go. Who cares about saving energy!
Err when a server is on 24/7... and speed is not an issue, i.e. just streaming movies maybe? :)

Erm this drive is aimed at people who are using it for storage, backups etc, 5400rpm is more than enough for that.
What do you use a 3TB drive for ? a OS ? if so buy the Seagate then.
This is a Hot deal.

I transfer data back and forth, extract files, that extra speed really makes a difference.

Still does not make this a cold deal as ppl do just use the 24/7 for streaming etc.

It also only has a years warranty, this over the the other. Hot for sure
Still
I might be tempted at this price to add to my NAS... voted hot.

That would be... almost everybody, with any sense that is. As 3TB Storage, is exactly that "Storage" you don't need speed (not that you would even notice anyway) Most technically minded use an SSD for their Main OS.
The 1ywarranty prone to failure Seagate Barracuda, is just right for you :p

YET AGAIN, isn't this site about the price for this particular item, not whether it is fit for your individual needs - FFS!

The 2TB version of these drives will give a sustained 120 megabytes a second, the seek time may be slow, but if you're that worried about seek times you'd run an SSD for the O/S drive and big clunker for data storage.
It wouldn't make any difference, as the throttling factor in all of this is your network, not the hard drive. So good example of where this drive would be ideal.
