B and H was great as usual. Product, Seagate Expansion hard drive copied my photos well. FedEx was disappointing as it took them 4 days to make delivery once they had it local.

Great value for 2 TB external drive. Comes formatted for Windows, but start up program makes it simple to follow the instructions to format it for Mac.
Gilbert Adams (verified owner) –
Only just received it and it works fine. Comparatively speaking works as well as the two Western Digital models I’ve had for a lower price. As with all harddrives the proof of how good it is to see how long it lasts after years of good performance.

It works well and with greater bandwidth compared to legacy drives. My only hope is it will be extended to even greater capacity!

Lots and lots of storage.

I edit a multi-cam TV show off these drives, with no performance issues. Highly recommend for the price.

5 stars because it’s an excellent little hard drive, as Seagate products typically are. However, for buyer research, I want to expand on a question regarding compatibility with iPad, and echo what I’ve written in the Q&A: All answers in the Q&A section say that it’s not compatible with iPad, but in my experience, it works just fine with my 3rd Gen iPad Pro (USB-C*) if the drive is formatted in either exFAT or Mac OS Extended Journaled (both in GUID partition). *An iPad with a Lightning connector would likely require the use of Apple’s Lightning to USB Camera Adapter However the one caveat is that I can’t get the iPad to recognize it if it’s encrypted. When formatted in Mac OS Extended Journaled Encrypted, the drive would power on, but it would not be recognized by the iPad in the Files app. My SSD and USB flash drive work fine formatted in APFS Encrypted, but APFS is not recommended for hard disks. Therefore, if you want to use this drive with encryption, format it in Mac OS Extended Journaled Encrypted and use it with a Mac. But if you want something encrypted for direct use with your iPad, use a flash drive or an external SSD and use APFS Encrypted. Otherwise, this is a fine hard disk drive all around and will see use as a compact backup for the iPad’s flash drive and other personal files (using a Mac for file management).

A real workhorse!

these are cheap drives so you should test them immediately after you buy them. I left mine on the shelf till i needed it and then it was too late to return it when I realized it was defective.

Incredibly smaller than my previous 5TB drives, which is a definite plus, and very quiet. As a photographer, 99% of my data is in photos and I found the transfer to be equally fast as other USB 3 drives. Price was the best I found anywhere for 5 TBs so crossing fingers that it holds up well.

Easy to use ,excellent for this money!

I use mine for back up of an older XP system I use for a Canon scanner (which was not Windows 10 compatible).
