I give this 5 stars for reliability, 4 for speed (it’s definitely not an SSD) and 3 for the fact that it is far from silent and sitting on my desk it vibrates slightly – but this is common for conventional disk drives. Doesn’t mean it can’t be designed away!

No mention of speed in the specs, should have looked into it more, maxing out at 20-30 MB/s, otherwise its okay. But that’s REALLY slow for a USB 3.0 drive 🙁 They should have mentioned this in the specs. I’ll likely keep it but I wouldn’t recommend it.

I have a number of external drives that are in constant use. This drive replaces a WD My Book that died on me twice (it was used for Mac Time Capsule backups). The capacity of this drive is perfect and the price was great. However, this is the noisiest drive I’ve had in a long time. It sits on my desk and spins up each hour as Time Capsule performs a backup and it’s noticeably loud. At night when the place is quiet, I can hear it in the next room. That said, if this thing turns out to be as reliable as some of my other drives, I’d probably buy another couple because of the price.

Takes up very little room on my desk. I only plug it in when I need to copy files from desktop to permanent storage, but even then it isn’t a loud unit. I don’t recommend keeping it plugged into your computer all the time, it will slow things down momentarily because everything else is SSD. Keep it handy, plug it in only when needed. Works great!

I own several Seagate Drives… most work very well. Some don’t. This one has a continuous clicking sound… the drive is struggling with something, keeps repeating. Since I have stored sensitive information on it, I can’t return it (factor reset doesn’t 100% guarantee the data is gone). I’m stuck buying another drive.

Makes a random knocking sound.

I plugged in the Hard Drive and it was immediately recognized my computer and I was backing up files within minutes.

This is my 4th Seagate hard drive and all have been great. I just keep getting Seagate and each time a bigger TB capacity. They have not let me down yet. Still have my oldest one running but needs to be retired . only 1TB and over 8 years old.

Ive had this expansion drive for about a month now, and very happy with it. It works as intended which is all you could want from a hard drive. It is decently quiet, I can hardly hear hear it over the soft hum of my desktop. Speeds around 100 mb/s. Nothing negative to say. So far so good.

Good value for what you get. Not the fastest interface, but this is my third one in 3 years (360 video files are big). I would prefer this with a newer faster interface USB C, however at this price that probably won’t happen for a few years.

Am using this with M1 MacBook Pro 13 and OWC Thunderbolt dock. Initially I thought it was owrking great but two things are making it look really shakey. (1) it keeps undocking and reconnecting itself, every few hours, and (2) trying to copy files from this drive back to another drive is failing due to unrecognized characters in file name. Sad. No other drive has these problems at all, not even a little bit. Very sad.

the 8TB drive is actually 7.27TB and when you google 7.27 you can readabkut how this is an accepted thing that some companies do when calculating size.

This drive was easy to set up. It is fast and works flawlessly. I bought this unit to replace another brand drive that failed almost immediatley after it was purchased. I would certainly buy another.

Extreemly easy to set up and operate. Pluge in – drag and drop.

The cost is reasonable, I did not pay a lot of taxes in Mexico, I recommend it a lot!

I reformatted quickly to a Mac compliant drive and filled it up and now sits on a shelf hopefully to never be called upon for the real test.
