This series includes reliable server drives whose design and firmware are optimized for long-term data storage tasks in SAN/DAS/NAS arrays and servers with up to 16 HDDs in the basket.

Overall, the Seagate Constellation ES.3 is a reliable option, especially when used with a stable power supply.

Been working for over a year. Awesome. But there are some nuances.

Got myself this factory-refurbished one. Didn't have time to test it on the computer right away—straight to video surveillance. It crackles a bit while reading and writing. The thermometer says it heats up like all HDDs. But that's a plus in a cold winter room. :) I'd specifically mention the downfall of any HDD: any constant deficiencies or single power failures can kill any hard drive! Some quicker, some take a bit longer. So sometimes it's worth testing the working parameters of your "best and time-tested" power supply.
Works quickly, price, heats the video surveillance system.
The mice complained about the crackling.
