Very decent price.

I need more HDD in my NAS (11 out of 12 TB is full) but can't afford this yet. Waiting for the price to go down.

So I read that right that this is for NAS system ya?

So its the " Barracuda and Barracuda Pro for the desktop and creative users. Or Firecuda "

What I would be after if its for my system (I use 2 SSDs for my OS/games atm).

a 10TB would be great I could go down to 1 HDD. Atm use 3 seagate's 2 4's and 1 3
about 40% full (but I like the room :) - again be great to go down to 1 drive to use less power and less space in the case.

whats the difference between the above drives?

I really like seagate drives.

If you just need a storage drive then the barracuda pro will launch the 10tb model and the barracuda will be 8tb and less.

The firecuda is designed at gamers as it provides faster load times and better performance over the barracuda. It is basically the SSHD but improved.

The drive above will work as a desktop drive but it is designed for NAS units and you will not gain any of the benefits of the drive.

Well 9TB was the capacity the server/data room had when I was 15 years old, and doing my work experience for British Aerospace Systems & Equipment. Amazing that something that took an extremely large room to house, can now fit in your hand for such a reasonable price.

Awesome.

Looks perfect, 7200rpm, 24/7 usage rating, awww.... if only it carried 5 year warranty of Barracuda Pro...

I thought it was a little weird how it had 3 year and not 5 year but it looks like they will be doing a pro version...maybe next year. The pro will more than likely have the 5 year.
