it is logic saying that 7200.12 is rebadged 7200.11, do you think seagate simply 'dumped' the problemed drives? that will make them a great financial loss, CEO get fired...chief engineer get fired...all that...

so it is wisely for us to bypass the so-called 12 generation 7200.12, and see how they perform in 13th gen, as many foreigners review that their 7200.12 death after several months of use and they also thinking that 12th are problem-free drive when they buy it.

you can always check review at popular online shop like newegg.com...

seagate used to be quite reliable drive, in the past i only bought seagate, but now dare not risk the fate of data...
