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.

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.

Plug and play flawless

I had my Seagate attached to my ThinkPad. The power was interrupted at the house while I was copying megabits of information. Thank goodness the Seagate external drive power supply came from the ThinkPad through a USB port, which seamless switches over to battery when the power goes out. Strong consideration when considering which external drive to buy.

basically gave me what we need

I needed enough storage space for a DCP file, without the extra expense of a 2TB drive….which I have a few of already.
Alexane Bartoletti (verified owner) –
It was quite easy to use, but slightly confusing at first probably due to my lack of expertise. After my friend helped a little, it was very smooth. It backed up my tablet in less than 2 hours, and I feel a lot less insecure about losing all my projects. I intend to use it to backup files on a regular basis now. I would buy this again and have recommended it to others.

I’m insanely busy overseeing a million digital art projects ( working at the university) and this is just plug and play heaven….. easy, fast well, I wish it was faster , but ok does the job, reasonable price (never raise it !) B&H is reliable, fast order set up, delivery, one and done. AMAZING!
Bettye Aufderhar (verified owner) –
Plenty of room to backup your old PC when you move to Windows 10 on that new PC. And it’s so small you can put all your photos and files in your pocket.
Kathlyn Rau (verified owner) –
Small and portable. Perfect for having redundancy backups of my photos.
Kayla Nitzsche (verified owner) –
The Segate portable driver is small for travel or office. I was anle to create individual folders in no time.
