Get the brilliant Seagate Barracuda 7200 3 Tb 7200rpm Sata 6 Gb/s Ncq 64mb Cache 3.5-inch Internal Bare Drive St3000dm001. This sought after item is currently available. For this great price, the Seagate Barracuda 7200 3 Tb 7200rpm Sata 6 Gb/s Ncq 64mb Cache 3.5-inch Internal Bare Drive St3000dm001 is widely recommended and is a regular choice amongst lots of people. With so many on offer right now, it is great to have a name you can believe. The product is certainly that and will be a excellent purchase. The manufacturer have added some great touches and this results in great value for money. You can believe this review, i hope you can try to buy this product if you want know this product. This is one of the select few 3TB drives approved by Synology for use in a variety of their NAS devices, so I put 4 of these in a DS411 in SHR with one disk redundancy (basically RAID 5). While anyone will tell you enterprise hard drives are better in RAID 5 or 6 configurations - and they are right, for the most part - it's hard to deny the big price difference in going enterprise: 3TB enterprise drives are well over $550 right now due to the recent Thailand flood and it may be some time before that price drops significantly. While these drives weren't as cheap as the 3TB WD Caviar Green varieties, I will NEVER put Caviar Greens in a RAID 5 again, so the ST3000DM001 quickly rose to the top of my admittedly short list.
I think it's important to point out that IntelliPower (WD) and CoolSpin (Hitachi) technologies are not really ideal for any kind of RAID array using parity. WD Caviar Green drives, especially, are known to sometimes not power up when needed, ultimately resulting in them getting dropped from the RAID array. A good NAS like the DS411 will put the drives into hibernation after 10 minutes of no activity, so you don't really need the benefit of "eco-friendly" drives in this kind of RAID anyways. Plus, with 7200RPM you will get speed improvements, so it's a no brainer to pick a drive like this over those.
That said, of course these do not have TLER, RAFF and other advantages of enterprise-class drives. So you run the risk of more errors, RAID rebuilds and potential failures by choosing a consumer drive like this. But even though the risk is greater, it's not really worth the extra money to go to 3TB enterprise-class, so I feel this is a good compromise of risk vs. value.

Seagate Barracuda 7200 3 Tb 7200rpm Sata 6 Gb/s Ncq 64mb Cache 3.5-inch Internal Bare Drive St3000dm001 Overview
Seagate Barracuda Hard Drives
The Power of One
Barracuda hard drives from Seagate give you with the Power of One. One terabyte per disc technology. One drive platform for every capacity need and every desktop storage application. One hard drive qualification effort. One hard drive platform to choose from. One hard drive with trusted performance, reliability, and simplicity to deliver the lowest total cost of ownership.
You no longer need to choose between low power drives, mainstream drives, or performance drives. One hard drive with 7200RPM performance and capacity points from 250GB to 3TB makes it easier than ever to choose the right drive for any need.
The Size and Performance You Want
You get more bang for your buck with 1TB per disc technology. Increasing the capacity per disc means the highest capacity drives like 1TB, 2TB and 3TB become more affordable, needing fewer discs to meet your capacity needs.
Your drive is up to 45% faster than the last generation thanks to Seagate OptiCache technology. OptiCache technology combines the latest advances in hard drive microprocessors, DRAM, and proprietary caching algorithms resulting in great performance improvements for you.
No-Hassle Transition to 4K Technology
You don't have worry about the transition to Advanced Format 4K technology with Seagate SmartAlign technology. With SmartAlign, 4K drives look and act just like legacy 512 byte sector hard drives which makes your adoption of Advanced Format simple.
Maximizes Hard Drive Storage Densities
You get reliable read/write performance even in tough operating environments with Seagate AcuTrac technology. AcuTrac represents new advanced hard drive technology that can accurately control reading and writing on these "nano-sized" tracks spinning at 7200 RPM, even in high-touch environments, such as an all-in-one PC with loud music booming through the speakers.
Proven Quality and Performance
Barracuda has become the world's most popular family of hard drives with consistent quality and performance-enhancing innovations and features like native command queuing and perpendicular recording. Additionally, the legendary family of Barracuda desktop hard drives is produced using the most sophisticated manufacturing process in the industry, with a focus on environmental stewardship.
Go Beyond 2TB with DiscWizard Software
The sure way to get native access to hard drives bigger than 2TB is to adopt the new BIOS standard called UEFI. If you're not there yet, Seagate has an alternative. You can now use Barracuda 3TB hard drives even using legacy PC BIOS, or Windows XP with free DiscWizard software. The free DiscWizard software allows you to configure your system to access a 3TB drive, even on legacy PC BIOS systems or Windows XP. It's a safer, more cost-effective solution for installing 3TB hard drives.
Green Where it Counts
Barracuda 1TB-per-disk hard drives now have advanced power modes to save more energy while in idle states--without sacrificing performance. Produced using the most sophisticated manufacturing process in the industry, with a focus on environmental stewardship, Barracuda drives comply with the RoHS directive on hazardous materials and voluntarily restrict halogen compounds. Plus, 70% or more of the materials used to build Barracuda drives are recyclable
