New 1TB hard drive that doesn't exceed 100€? Bought [Problem, too slow]

Avanti :sisi:

I have already told you that I have a 2TB Black Caviar, but I would not pay what it is worth currently. I think the Seagate is a good choice.

The Black Caviar makes more noise, but it is not a blender either. After having two Raptors and this disk, I think the noise is normal :ugly:

I without a doubt Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 2TB SATA3 64MB over 100 euros
good performance little noise and low temperature, it is the best to last a long time

Well, mine also makes noise of noses, so I would be equally accustomed :ugly:
I will go for the Seagate then, thanks

Here I am again, already with money in hand and about to buy it, but yesterday I came across this…

TR Blog Seagate Barracuda 2 TB, two versions of the same disk - TR Blog

In the image of pccomponentes of that disk, this groove does not appear, what do you think? Can anyone who has bought it recently confirm which version it is? Best regards

I sent them a ticket and they replied with the following:

''Hi Miguel,

My colleagues tell me that this model is the three-plate one.

For any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us, we will always be happy to help you.

Regards and thank you for trusting us.''

So that's the ''bad'' model:ffu:

Are you still recommending that option? It will give less performance but I think it won't be that dramatic, right?

Edit:

I asked at 4frags, and this is what they told me:

''Good morning Miguel,
I find the information you have shared with us very interesting, so
I think we have been lucky, since the 2TB disks I have left here are the ones that have the notch or deeper mark and therefore, according to
the link you provided, the good ones are the ones that have 2
plates of 1TB each. If you are interested, do not delay in making the reservation,
because I do not know if the next ones that arrive will be the same, although it is
likely.''

So I will buy it there then, and it's also a bit cheaper, in fact, I just ordered it. Regards and thank you for your patience. I will let you know as soon as it arrives.

Perfecto pues

Unfortunately, here I am again.
I have received the 1TB dual drive model as I told you.

But when I run it through HD Tune or Crystal disk the speeds are very low! In HD Tune it gives a minimum of 1MB and the maximum it gives is almost 200, but only at the beginning, then it completely deflates.

I have seen this…
New hard drive with very low speed transfers (solved) » Dr PC Barcelona, computer technician at home

In solution 1, I can't see those values anywhere in the registry to delete them, or I don't know how to look at them (I right-click and modify…)

The BIOS thing of changing the hard drive to ACHI doesn't work either, I activate the option and when I start Windows it gives me a blue screen and restarts, I have to put it back to IDE against my will.

Solution 2, changing the SATA port, things improve a little, but not much.

And I still don't understand solution 3 very well, I'm still investigating.

Has this happened to you?

I attach a screenshot of HD Tune

My God, it's the first epic mess up in disk performance I've seen. I don't understand :wall:

@Obione:

My God, it's the first epic mess up in a disk's performance I've seen. I don't understand :wall:

Considering that my motherboard supports Sata II, does this seem more normal to you? Adding that it's partitioned into 1TB, 500GB and 300GB (just in case it helps)

It already has an average of 110, although I think there are too many low peaks, I don't know what else to do :ffu:

That's what I got by testing 3 times on a different Sata port :ugly:

In some test it has reached up to 200 clavados as a maximum, with similar results in average, and in error scan it has no errors.

PD: you scare me Obione :nono:

Edit: I add the test with the old one I still have installed, a Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 Sata I of 200GB

Hello everyone, it's 5:16 in the morning and I'm still here :ugly:

I finally did the following:

I went to My Computer, right-click on the hard drive, properties, and I uncheck the box that said…
''Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties''

I did that process on the three partitions I created and look at the result in the attachment...

It looks pretty cool, I don't know what the hell I did by unchecking that box, but now I'm going to sleep, I don't feel like looking it up. Let's hope it lasts :wall:

Goodbye and good night ;D

La magia del indizado xD
Tomo nota, es interesante saber que el indizado causa esos altibajos en las velocidades de transferencia…
Aquí otro que se va a dormir :ugly:

Merece la pena preguntarles, me alegro que después del coñazo que os dí, sirva de algo.
