I use drives like this to store video files of customers Scanned 8/16mm movies, video tapes, and photos, etc. They are price effective and accomplish the job. So far I have not experienced any problems.

Nice deal at B&H. The storage unit was exactly what was looking for and at a price that felt very comfortable paying. Delivery was in time and service flawless.

The Seagate 2TB external hard drive is perfect for our needs as a backup. It very much plug and play, much the same as a flash drive would be but so nice not to be concerned about enough storage. It is a little bigger than a 3×5 index card and about 1/2 inch thick. With a price of $55, you can’t go wrong.

It’s plenty big enough for what I want. I wish it was a little faster. Price was right.

I placed this drive on top of a stack of books about 9 inches high. I connected the cord it came with and went to plug it to my Surface Pro. Apparently, the Surface was a little too far for the cord and I ended up pulling the cord enough for the drive to come with it. What followed was a pretty hard thud, enough for me to be concerned about the drive. I cleared my desk and plugged in the drive only to find 300GB of files wiped out. Luckily, I’m using this drive as a backup, so nothing was actually lost. As I tried to eject it, a notification popped up preventing me from ejecting. This was new to me, as I am able to eject without any issues. I unplugged the drive anyway and upon re-plugging, a notification popped up saying the entire drive is corrupted and needs to be repaired, which I am in the process of doing. Great. For $100, I’d expect the quality of this hard drive to be a little better. If you are looking to buy a hard drive, please be take extra care into it when to open it out of the box.

I purchased two of these drives one for my playstation 4 and one for my xbox 1 consoles the drives started off working fine but today exactly a month after I purchased the hard drives one hard drive stopped working. The hard drive stopped working on my xbox 1 and when I tried to connect it to my laptop it wasn’t appearing on my laptop I decided to send back both hard drives for a full refund.

Haven’t used it yet as my laptop says that it isn’t readable, nor can it repair it to be able to read it. Not sure if this is defected or if they’re selling products that don’t even work.

I have used Seagate drives since 2002 when I built my first workstation. It had three Seagates in it. Now I have a Zalman GS1000 which holds eight drives, six easily hot-swappable. They run anywhere from 24/7 to just 10 hours/day. They are reliable. I have only lost three since 2002, but I have dozens. I store my Docs on one, music on one, audio recordings, AFX & music on one, media project support on one and then projects, companies and TB’s of video on others including master DVD’s, CD’s, BluRays and others. I have used other drives like WD but I buy these because they work and last. Sure you can use SSD’s but these are WAY cheaper. And cloud storage? Only for the ignorant and foolish (mine would cost nearly a $1,000/year. Learn how to use HDD’s they save money and time.

It is being used with my Windows 10 and Windows 7 computers primarily for backup. It is quick and quiet. I am happy with it
Elvis Stroman (verified owner) –
Yep, a bit larger than an iPhone but it has 5TB of storage. I’ve just begun using it. It should be as reliable as the other Seagate Drives I’ve used. They’ve all lasted a long time. No complaints. Definitely like the smaller size.

So far so good. I reformatted it easily to be Mac and PC compatible as I use multiple devices depending on my mood. The design is a nice touch, but purely cosmetic. As long as it holds up, I believe it will suit me well.
Marta Bogisich (verified owner) –
I can use it with both my PC and my Mac, holds a ton of data, has a reasonable transfer rate. Got it on sale at B&H. Fast shipping. I’m ordering another one to back up my backup!

Fast. Compatible with my Samsung S7.
