I have an Apple computer and had problems with Western Digital external drives. The Seagate works perfectly. Great drive. Mark

Issue #1: I have been able to format Seagate 0.5 TB, WD 2 TB, and WD 3TB drives to exFAT so they work directly with my Windows and Mac computers. Not so with this Seagate 8 TB. Formatting to exFAT causes this drive to be unrecognizable by Mac. I had to format back to NTSF and install the Paragon driver. Issue #2: Mac – Seagate 8 TB – Seagate 2 TB works just fine. The Seagate 8 TB is acting as a USB hub, and both drives are usable. Mac – Seagate 8 TB – WD 3 TB does not work. The WD 3 TB drive is not recognizable. Mac – Seagate 8 TB – another USB hub – WD 3 TB works fine. Why do I need another USB hub in between? I’m very disappointed with this product and don’t recommend it.

Used this on my new computer for backups. Easy to connect and use. Backups are inherently slow so write speed is of little consequence for my application. I copied the backup to a second hard drive connected via one of the USB 3.1 ports on this drive. Easy as dragging the file from one folder to the other. 180 GB backup file copied to second drive in about 90 minutes. I was surprised it copied that quickly because of my experience with an older computer and older hard drive but my new computer has USB 3.0 as does this drive and the drive to which I was copying the file so I am very pleased with its performance. I think Seagate puts a variety of different drives inside the enclosure for this product. The drive inside of mine is a 5400 RPM ST8000DM004 Barracuda according to my CrystalDisk utility. Some customers report having received 5900 RPM drives but this one has 256 MB cache and TGMR recording technology (which may be similar to Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) according to some sources though to me it seems to be a form of Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR) which is evidently superior to SMR in terms of speed of overwriting existing files).

This is my third Seagate USB 3.0 external HD with USB Hub because I have never had a problem with the first two. I started with a 2TB, then bought a 4TB, and now an 8TB as my need for storage space steady increases over the years that I’ve been running by photography business. These external HD are reliable which is important to me and my clients whose work gets stored on them. Of course, who can’t use a couple more USB ports too!

This is the 3rd one I’ve purchased. I was outgrowing my 5TB drives connected to my router (i.e. accessing them as shared network storage). Swapped them out for these 8TB drives, and connected the 5TB drives to their USB ports. It’s working out great.

The unit offers quick data transfers and a huge amount of storage capacity, for a very reasonable price. I especially like having the two USB ports on the front of the drive.

I hope to grow into this 10TB hard drive. I am tempted to buy another to have an extra back up for all my photo’s. So far so good. It seems to be working well.

Seagate has been reliable for me for years. This is in addition to other 4GB external drive filling up and 2GB flash drives used for travel that are already owned. USB hub a nice addition, providing more easy versatility. Special pricing the real draw to a timely purchase. B+H characteristically with great service.

This is my 5th Seagate external drive. I’ve used them for backups for many years and have never had a problem with one. The new models have USB hubs on the front which is an added bonus.

The drive was delivered quickly and in good shape. Connected it to my system, plugged it in, and started backing up my smaller 2TB drives. It was as simple as that!

This seagate device really helped me feel secure with lots of photos….I use an iMac and it works smoothly.

We bought this hard drive for our high speed internet but it would drop service and we would have to reboot it or sometimes it just didn’t work at all!

Beauty! Seagate stuff is supepr reliable, have had this thing plugged in and working hard for over a year now, it’s doing great! I love that you can use it as a usb hub and just download footage/photos straight to the harddrive without having to go through your computer.

Got it for archiving images. So far it works great. The 2 USP sockets come in handy too.
