Seagate Baracuda - hard drive - Számítógép (4) - Pótolt dobozzal

Welcome to my auction of a rare hard drive from the American manufacturer Seagate: the Barracuda ST32171N from 1995.

I am offering a total of four Seagate Barracuda ST32171N hard drives:

- One hard drive without the original packaging, but it still looks like new.
- One hard drive with opened original packaging, also in like-new condition.
- Two hard drives still sealed in their original packaging, therefore brand new.

All hard drives are in excellent condition but has not been tested due to missing cables. Therefore, I am offering it exclusively as a collectible. It has served as a decorative piece in my computer room and has been stored protected from light and dust in a display case.
