Both the llisted speed and model number change in the product description as you pick different disk size options. This is consistent with Seagate's website -- From the home page, drill down through (or search for) Internal / Hard Drives / BarraCuda - Learn More, and then click the 3.5 inch models tab (NOT the 3.5 inch PRO models tab). Then click on the data sheet next to any model to get a PDF with a table containing all of the models along with their drive speeds and other specs.. **Q: Is a sata cable included in the package?** A: Cables not included. You can buy a SATA data cable and likely the appropriate power cable for your computer right here on Amazon. Depending on your power supply, the power cable may already be connected to it in your computer -- some have that and some do not. **Q: Is this really 7200rpm? the model number suggests otherwise.** A: Only the 1TB and 2TB HDDs in this series are 7200RPM. The higher capacity drives are 5400RPM and only intended as data drives. When using the 5400RPM drives you should have a separate drive that is either a 7200RPM HDD, a NVMe drive or an SSD for the operating system/as the boot drive. 5400RPM drives will boot a computer but will be noticeably slower than a 7200RPM HDD, a NVMe drive or an SSD. If your computer is new enough, an NVMe drive would be the best option. Otherwise, a SATA SSD would be the next best option. All three are available right here on Amazon. **Q: Is the 2tb (st2000dm008) internal hard drive cmr or smr?** A: I can't speak to SMR vs. CMR but since I see someone said this is unsuitable as a boot drive I will note that I have used this as the boot drive with a dual Windows 10-Xubuntu 20.04 OS install and it has worked fine. I personally think the load/unload cycle count is set way too liberally, it unloads way too quickly IMO but that is easy enough to deal with and even if it isn't dealt with the drive has about 3-5 years of load/unload cycles built into it and that is worst case where the computer is on constantly (my use case). Of course if you use it as a data only drive and use an SSD or M.2 for a boot drive this is a moot point as the drive is not accessed regularly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excelente. *by K***P on 8 August 2026* Espaço top para guardar meus gameplay em 4k, indicado para coldstorage. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Harika orjinal Seagate box paket içinde geliyor. *by C***L on 3 June 2023* Model numarasındaki ST8000DMZ04 farkı 75x155x230 Seagate box paket olarak geldiği için değişmiş. Yoksa bilinen ST8000DM004'ten bir farkı yok. Gayet sağlıklı bir şekilde elime ulaştı. Tavsiye ederim.... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Item received and working 100% *by A***M on 6 May 2021* I was a bit worried when the HDD arrived and the box was dented (signs of 'mishandling'). Did a validation (unRAID preclear) which ran over 49hours to test each sector of the hardisk and I am glad that it pass 100%! Note: Got this at a very good price but remember this is SMR disk. It fits my purpose for archiving data. IF you are using this as a NAS (e.g. in synology NAS) you are better off looking for a CMR disk (google the difference). Putting this disk for RAID purpose will be a disaster! Take note. ## Frequently Bought Together - Seagate BarraCuda 8TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 3.5 Inch Sata 6 Gb/s 5400 RPM 256MB Cache for Computer Desktop PC (ST8000DMZ04/004) - BENFEI SATA Cable III, 3 Pack SATA Cable III 6Gbps Straight HDD SDD Data Cable with Locking Latch 18 Inch Compatible for SATA HDD, SSD, CD Driver, CD Writer - Black - ARCTIC MX-4 (4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for All Processors (CPU, GPU - PC), Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Safe Application, Non-Conductive --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/218341979-barracuda-8tb-internal-hard-drive-hdd-3-5-inch-sata](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/218341979-barracuda-8tb-internal-hard-drive-hdd-3-5-inch-sata) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-08-18*
