If you dig into some of the synthetic benchmarks, it's interesting to see where some of the drives fall apart.

Performance

Sustained write performance is adequate, but eventually, there’s a bump in the road. SMR drives can write fine when fresh but eventually will have to rewrite data due to the shingled nature of the storage. This manifests as the interspersed periods of lower performance that you see in the test above, and the impact and duration of this type of performance inconsistency will vary based on the workload. A purely sequential write workload such as the one shown above is the best-case scenario for a write workload on an SMR drive, and you can expect those interspersed periods of lower performance to increase if you mix in smaller files during a transfer. Overall, SMR technology results in slower overall write speeds and poorer write consistency than CMR hard drives. Power Consumption Today, we are going to take a look at the Seagate BarraCuda Compute 8TB hard drive to see how this drive performs and helps us in our daily work and storage needs.

We’ve determined that the Seagate BarraCuda Compute 8TB hard drive is created for general storage and archival, and it is well designed and priced to achieve just that. It is essentially almost a no-brainer if you are looking for a new hard drive with large storage capacity to store your every growing number and size of files. With Seagate’s branding and reputation, you should be in safe hands. File server ? hey maybe for a small business, but how do they fare in RAID ? does the SSD cache gets in the way ?

Gebruikershandleiding Nytro VMware vCenter Or maybe more in a software Raid array to avoid compatibility problems ?What SSD part/cache? It has normal RAM for a cache like any plain HDD has for decades? This isn't an SSHD (it is mentioned throughout the article that it is ann HDD and in the title even). Even though the Seagate Barracuda internal hard disk has a rotation speed of only 5400 which is on the low spectrum of hard drive speeds, it has other features embedded in it which make up for it. It has a data transfer rate of 190 megabytes per second (190MB/s) and load/unload cycle rate of 300,000. Those are very good speeds considering the rotation speed of the hard disk.

Noise Levels

The drive also maintains a relatively lower temperature. With heavy use, the drive reaches a maximum temperature of about 60°C. The non-operating temperature can go down to -40°C depending on the weather and the place that you live in.

This is suitable for a NAS that uses ZFS in any configuration-be it a mirror or a RAID config (thanks CMR!), local storage that is sensitive to network latency but not high bandwidth, archiving that has large changes regularly that SMR will choke on or perhaps a drive for storing games (since this is a gaming brand of Seagate's) that weren't designed for SSDs or aimed at an older game collection. OS : absolutely not, even the cheapest 128GB sata SSD would be much better. Unless you like to take a coffee while your PC boots. Priced at about PHP 13,0000, the 8TB variant has a cost-to-storage ratio of around PHP 1,625/TB, which is notably lower than the 4TB variant at around PHP 1,750/TB and the 1TB at PHP2,399/TB so you’re definitely saving a bit more money in the long-term if you choose the higher capacity variants. Regardless, Seagate did clearly state that the drive is rated at a read speed of 190MB/s based on the specifications sheet. So you will be clear on what are you getting before actually purchasing the drive.

Software en apps

The BarraCuda also has a workload rate limit (WRL) that defines how much data you can read and write from the drive before reliability degrades, but it’s quite low at 55TB per year during the two-year warranty period. In contrast, the 8TB WD Blue has no workload restriction. With how cheap NAND is, I don't think anyone would even consider this for an OS drive if they understand current technology or concerns with boot time. Yes as noted in the post, the Barracudas are desktop hard drives and are not designed for use in enclosures. That’s why they don’t have rotational vibration sensors which are required to detect and offset vibration.

While comparing these drives, we should be mindful that these are very different drives, created for very different applications, and have different price points for the same capacity. Honestly, all sales of SMR HDD's to average consumers or through consumer e-tailers or retailors should be banned. The Seagate BarraCuda is a typical hard drive that's built and optimized for capacity and lower pricing over performance. As such, it offers plenty of storage space at an inexpensive price point, but it has serious limitations. The product line is limited to 8TB and uses slower SMR technology at every capacity point, restricting the drives' use because write performance and consistency are quite poor, while the competing 8TB WD Blue uses faster CMR tech. The BarraCuda's overall performance is also low. This is partly due to the 5400-RPM spindle speed, but the lower rotational speed is forgivable given the price point.

Bepaal snel de toestand van de schijf in uw computer met deze uitgebreide, gebruiksvriendelijke diagnose. Ondersteuningsinformatie bekijken Some people say when you write a bigger amount – for instance over 100 GB – that the writing performance is sinking drastically to under 1-2 MByte/s. Thanks for the article. I have an additional question: I have 3x LaCie Porsche Design 8TB 3.5″. 2 of them failed within 2.5 years of use. Internally they have Barracudas. I am suspicious, that the failures could be based on the fact, that they ran on the same platform, that transmitted the vibration of the drives to the other drives. Do you have any information what happens with the drives, when they are worked under such conditions?
