Q: QuestionIs this hard drive good for gaming desktops(2 answers)
A: AnswerIt's great for storage not great for gaming in my opinion. You can run a game on it but will likely have long load times. It is a 5200 RPM HDD so it is a bit slow. That said I have 2 in my rig, I keep games I want to keep up to date but not playing regularly on the HDD's and games I play regularly on SSD'S. I also keep my photo's, documents and some programs on there as well. It works out for me. Transfers are still speedy so moving a 60GB game from the Seagate to an SDD takes roughly 15 minutes or so. Hope this helps!Answered by PaulB
- A: AnswerNo. It only comes with the drive. You'll need the power and sata cables

My second hard drive and my pc has room for 3
I edit videos and since I have to record plenty I need memory and also memory for backup, this is my second Seagate BarraCuda that I have on my computer. I got the second one to backup the first just in case something goes wrong. It was easy to install, I found the cables on my computer, plugged both cables and then in settings just added the memory and done. I also downloaded the Seagate health checkup to keep an eye on it. I like that it comes with a 2 year warranty. It reads and writes fast and since I edit large videos I need something fast and this keeps up. I like how it works. easy to install and setup and very reliable.
