Bought two of these as part of a migration from Mac to PC for photo and video work. I haven’t noticed a noise issue as some have mentioned, no noisier than the computer fans. Best speeds so far have been between 100-110 MB/s. We’ll see how they do over time.

I’ve had this Seagate drive for 2 weeks and so far so good. Pretty much plug and play, easy set up, file/album creation straight forward. Time will tell if my pictures are there when I go to retrieve them. Love the customer service of B&H. You are the best!

Ordered quickly from Amazon the first time and the Seagate 8TB that arrived was obviously fake. The ac power adapter cheap and flimsy, the lettering on the drive itself crooked, and it would never even power up. Returned and purchase the real thing from B&H. Let it be a lesson, just purchase from B&H and avoid the flimflam artists out there.

I was using a 1TB hard drive for my old iMac which had a 250gb HD. This year I upgraded to a new machine which has a 2TB SSD and ran out of space on the old external so this 6TB drive is everything I’ll need for a backup disk, at a great price. Setup was easy. I had to reformat to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), but Disk Utility makes that super easy, let it run backup overnight while the machine was in sleep mode, and everything is running great. There’s definitely peace of mind in having all of my data backed up.

Easy plug and play set up. Worked immediately with my Mac and I started dragging and dropping files immediately.

Connected the drive and backed up 200Gb in less than 1 hour. The drive functioned without issue.

Upgraded from my previous extern hard drive, due to requiring more space. Transferred all the files over, easily.

Drive was simple to install and 10TB is a lot of storage. It is very quiet and will go into a reduced power state after a period of time so it’s not always running. Very nice and would recommend to anyone needing a lot of inexpensive storage.

I currently own 5x 8TB Expansion drive already. This is a review for my purchase order of 10x 8TB Seagate Expansion drives. Not only am I satisfied with my product, purchase experience, and service but I’m glad B&H provides extreemly low pricing no one can beat! I’m a Customer for life! Thank you B&H team! This product arrived extremely quickly, in a well protected packaging. Overall Seagate is a great product, data read and write speed is fast, quality material such as the hard drive housing is dourable, needs a little more air circulation.

Hooked it up with my Mac and it works great.

Cheapest way to get a good 8TB drive. Just bust the case open and remove the drive. I use mine in an OWC Thunderbolt bare drive dual bay unit for back ups. I’d recommend it as well.

This is my 5th Seagate 8TB drive and I have had no problems with any of them.I’m an amateur photographer and these drives are perfect for everyday use or backup and a great price!!

This is my third 8TB Expansion drive. I formatted it as a Mac Extended (Journaled) drive. It seems to be working great with the Mac. The other two drives were formatted as Windows 10 NTFS drives and have been in service for a couple of years. Absolutely no glitches yet. I have used many Seagate drives since the 1980s. I have had only two failures in all that time. One was 35 years ago and I was able to recover that drive. The other was about 15 years ago. I thought I was clever and ran a mirrored RAID array to automatically back up my data. When I got bad sectors on the primary drive, the mirrored drive copied them. If I had used an external drive for weekly backups instead I would have recovered the 25,000 RAW photos that I lost. That was a hard lesson. Even though I trust Seagate with my data every day, I still make regular backups.

Five stars for the price/performance ratio. Not the fastest, not the most expensive. It’s really a good option for what I’m using it for which is an external Linux file store.

Cost efficiency and wonderful quality.. Above all, I just made a transaction in Apr, 2021. As you know the shortage of semiconductor, my order is delivered in Oct, 2021. But I’m sure B&H keep their keep promises to customers. It’s wonderful!!! thanks.
