This family includes 5 models with capacities from 320 GB to 2 TB, which are optimized for streaming digital video in consumer DVRs, multimedia centers, and surveillance systems based on DNR network video recorders. They feature low power consumption (no more than 3.4W in intensive use mode) and impressively quiet operation.

Maintain operability over a wide temperature range from 0 to 75 degrees, allowing these drives to be used with silent passive cooling systems.

Model overview based on user reviews  
The Seagate Pipeline HD series, including models like the ST3500312CS, is known for its affordable price and decent speed. However, user feedback highlights significant reliability issues, with reports of the hard drive failing within a few months of purchase. One user experienced the drive dying after just three months, with previous experiences of the same model lasting only a year before developing bad sectors. Additionally, users have noted noise issues with the drive. Overall, while the price and speed are appealing, the reliability concerns make it a risky choice for consumers.

Purchased this crap on April 9, 2019. It died after 3 months, bought it from sven.dp.ua store, it spins up and stops after a second. Before that, I bought this model, it lasted longer (a year) and started failing with bad sectors at the beginning.
