Works great with Win7 Pro 64-bit, 30 May 2012

Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200rpm SATA III Internal Hard Drive (ST3000DM001) Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200rpm SATA III Internal Hard Drive (ST3000DM001) available on January 28 2020 from Amazon for 117.40
Worked fine right out of the box; installed and configured with no hassles.I was able to easily configure it as a single partition. I configured it for GPT instead of MBR; and thus I have access to full 3TB (formatted as 2.72TB) without breaking it up into partitions. No extra software or hardware was needed.I have a new PC the configuration made this install very straightforward: Asus P8P67 Pro REV 3.0 mobo, Intel i7-2600K CPU, 16GB RAM, two Intel 510 SSDs, 5 additional internal Seagate Barracuda HDs, two 3TB eSATA HDs Win 7 Pro 64-bit SP1, Antec P183 v3 case, Antec CP1000 power supply,It runs just slightly warm to the touch, about the same as my other non-SSD HDs. Note: I have a 120mm fan dedicated to my (lower) HD bay where these drives are installed.I scanned the whole drive for bad spots without significant findings or problems.I needed the 3TB of space for my digital photography hobby, so easy access to this much space...

3TBs for £120! I couldn't say no. Apart from the fact it can hold a huge amount of data it seems pretty much like any other drive. I use it solely for storage rather than for programs so I don't really have any access time issues. When I click on an MP3 or MP4 it plays pretty much straight away. I like it so much I'm going to buy another 1!

I'm using this in a Synology NAS, out of the box not a problem, the drive runs quiet and relatively cool. Transfer speeds are good too.
