That's awesomely respectable for a harddrive (especially a Seagate 🤣)
The ST225 would like to speak with you.
I know, was just trying to make a joke. Most manufacturers went from making good stuff to bad stuff and vice versa.
Was actually in the attic just a minute ago, looking for this Prairytech laptop drive I heard so many wonderful tales about 😁
Couldn't find it, but I did find something else that kinda warrants a mini-re-unboxing (will post pics soon)
edit: Went through my old pics and found a pic of some of the oldest drives I should still have laying around.
The one at the middle bottom looks like this one, except it's 40MB instead of 80MB

I'm not sure I still have this box, but I'm certain I never threw the drives in the bin.
