Seagate Barracuda Q5 SSD 500GB up to 2400 MB/s - Internal M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen3 ×4, 3D QLC for Desktop or Laptop, 1-Year Rescue Services (ZP500CV3A001)

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.

I was searching SSD for my New Icy Box IB-241WP SSD enclosure with Physical Write Protection Switch.I have selected Barracuda Seagate based on 7 days replacement at Service center and as service centres are available in cities out of silicon Power, Western Digital, Foxin as they are non returnable, Alketron and Acclamator they are returnable but of Chinese brand.The barracuda size is just matching and thickness is 7 mm against permitted 9 mm. It is working fine without any heating.

Bought but haven’t used it yet, expecting senate to deliver as patron of the brand

After more than one month used in my opinion speed of my laptop increased and we like to go for this good product. Also we got it at great discount price than in local market.

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!

Very quick and stable.

Good & Easy Install

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.

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?

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

Works well, but won't last as long as the other ones

Funciona correctamente, no se calienta en exceso y ofrece velocidades altas y consistentes para el rango de precio que tiene.
