The Seagate BarraCuda ST4000DM004 is a 4TB, 3.5-inch SATA internal hard drive suited to desktop users who need roomy storage for games, movies, music, and other everyday files.
Recommended For
- Desktop users who need a large, read-mostly library for movies, music, photos, or archived files, and expect to read files far more often than they rewrite them.
- Home media-server owners who mainly stream stored movies or music and do not regularly make large batches of changes to the drive.
- PC builders adding inexpensive secondary storage for game installers, recorded gameplay, or other large files they can tolerate loading and copying more slowly than from an SSD.
- Users keeping an occasional, mostly sequential copy of files as secondary or off-site storage, where a long write or restore is acceptable and another copy of important data exists.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- Adding low-cost capacity to a desktop for movies, music, downloads, and other files: it works well as a bulk-storage drive, while the operating system and frequently used apps can stay on an SSD.
- Keeping a home movie or music library on a PC: stored files are available for browsing and playback, but adding or rewriting large amounts of data can take longer than on an SSD.
- Making a second copy of personal files or completed projects: it can hold a large backup set, especially when writes happen occasionally rather than as constant, frequent updates.
- Storing game installers, backups, and games played occasionally: it frees SSD space, but games installed on the HDD may have longer load times than on an SSD.
- Building a multi-drive NAS or RAID array with frequent writes or rebuilds: this is a poor fit for those workloads, where users may encounter slow writes or lengthy rebuilds; consider a drive designed for NAS use instead.
