Review: Great hard drive, Bad Packaging, Bad Result - I’m unsure whether to rate the product itself or the seller’s page, given the poor packaging and handling that negatively impacted my experience with the product. What should I do? Seagate Exos are among the most expensive, high-quality drives available in the market. They are also fragile and require careful handling. These drives are masterpieces, capable of delivering the quality you seek in a NAS system. Unfortunately, I ordered two of these drives, both of which arrived in poor packaging with numerous dents. I didn’t realize the extent of the damage until I ran a NAS test, which alerted me to the fact that both HDDs were not reading or writing properly. While creating a pool under Raid 5, the system issued warnings and write errors. I decided to run a performance test, and to my surprise, the test failed due to bad sectors. I haven’t contacted the seller yet, but I plan to do so. I intend to request a replacement or a refund due to the poor condition of the hard drives upon arrival. It’s important that products, especially high-value and sensitive ones like these Seagate Exos drives, are delivered with appropriate packaging to prevent damage.
Review: excellent HDD with great r/w speed - I bought it to transfer around 12tb of from my NAS so I can perform clear installation, I set it up inside my ubuntu box and start transfer the data through the network and I was expecting it to take long time to transfer the data to it, but the write speed was great on the HDD, the only downside that it is a bit loud but not that you cannot ignore. Now I'm keeping at as backup disk and used it 2 times and to transfer from and to it and happy with the results.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these retail or oem? seagate won't warranty oem drives.**
A: Purchased 30+ units of X18 18TB SATA (ST18000NM000J) from HyperHawk. Checked each serial number and can confirm that all of them have eligible retail warranty from Seagate US. Caveat is that I cannot tell you that this would be the case for other sellers.

**Q: What is the warranty?**
A: The answers here need some correction.  There are multiple sellers based on the specific drive but all the listings reference the Seagate store.  So the companies are selling these drives for Seagate.  These are ALL retail drives, or are supposed to be.  The seller is not allowed by Seagate to sell an OEM drive so if you get one, report it.  Maybe it's best to check warranty status when you first get it.  You can also report it to Amazon because violating company policy also violates Amazon's policies for selling on Amazon.

They don't have a warranty from the day you buy them, they have a warranty from the date they were manufactured so it's a policy I don't quite like, but I've bought multiple drives from this listing, had to deal with one and it's a 5 year warranty for ALL the EXOS drives, that is 5 years from the date it was manufactured.   So the people saying they have no warranty are wrong.  Maybe they bought a drive on another Amazon listing.

OEM BTW is a special deal that a manufacturer will make with system builders.  The system builder makes systems, sells the system and takes full responsibility if something goes wrong.  When a system builder buys OEM parts, there's typically less warranty so they take more risk, but they also get a lower price on the products  HP for instance sells PCs.  They have a warranty for a time period for the system.  If something goes wrong with the system, you deal with HP, not a company that makes a component in that system.

**Q: This drive was made for datacenters. Can it be used in a regular pc as a separate drive besides the main drive containing the operating system?**
A: As long as you have a modern PC.  It's typical SATA III interface.  The only issue is with older PCs because you need a BIOS that can deal with GPT partitions.  But really, if you have something that came out after around 2010 - 2012, the BIOS should be more modern.  BIOS, being software/hardware = firmware that's involved with the basic functionality of the hardware that's part of the PC, which is what brings the PC up to the state of being able to load an operating system, such as Windows or Linux.

**Q: What is the difference between the regular 16th and the X18 version?**
A: The primary difference between the X16 and X18 versions is the capacity of the individual platters in the drive, and slight increases in the transfer rate. The maximum capacity of the platters 2TB for the X18, and 1.6TB for the X16.  Transfer rates for the X18 increased to 270MB/s, up from 261MB/s for the X16.
