We’ve been using large-capacity Seagate drives to backup our main editing drives and RAIDs for a long time. We only use these as a backup solution, and they represent the best value per gigabyte anywhere. I’ve yet to use the new USB ports but it’s nice to know they’re there.

We have it connected to our RAID and it has been working seamlessly. Very large capacity. Runs silent. Runs cool. It’s a great unit for extra protection and the price is very nice.

Accurate for large backups. Very quiet. Handy usb 2.0 hub. Needs activity light.

Like having an entire parking garage for a small car…lots of space. Works great. Hope it lasts!

This is my second shot at this device. I returned the first one after the drive became totally un-mountable after attempting to re-format the drive from its native NTFS to the more efficient AFS for my Mac. Using Disk Utility has never failed me in this task ever on any other drive. This one however, no success. Multiple attempts, two different units. Just to make sure I didn’t do something wrong, I verified the steps I took with Seagate’s instructions on re-formatting, and I had done exactly what the manual suggested. Save your money and frustration, unless NTFS suits your needs. I do enjoy the hub feature, but since the drive itself is useless there’s no 2-port USB hub worth that kind of money.

It does what it supposed to do and the USB ports are very useful

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.

Received from B & H in short order. Connected to my QNAP NAS and access it through my home network. This provides much needed additional storage!

I was really excited to find this product at B&H (hard to find this size external hard drive easily elsewhere). The shipping was fast and free, and the drive works great. I’ve since purchased another, and received a price adjustment when the same product went on sale the next day. Overall quite happy with the customer service and quality/range of products available.

These are well guilt drives, I have 2. I will say it’s sometimes a bit of a pain setting up, I don’t know if it’s just because I have a Mac but the software included is a little cumbersome. I just like to plug in the drive and open up the icon. The charging ports on the front or a nice option although I don’t tend to use them. And I strictly use these as a back up so I don’t work off of them too often but the performance seems fine, especially for my needs. And you cannot beat the price.

Quite fast for an external USB HDD and the two USB ports on the front are a bonus.

Was just what I needed, works great just as described, great seller

I bought a back up for this backup. It makes an incredible amount of noise, but I guess this is to be expected with an actual moving hard drop. (remember it’s not an SSD). I haven’t had any problems with it, but it’s just noisy.

I bought a 8tb and it was awesome so I upgrade the for the next level

I have an Apple computer and had problems with Western Digital’s drive. I got a Seagate and it works great. Mark

It is used to back up my RAW TIFF & jpg images. I like the built in 2 USB option
Timmothy Langosh (verified owner) –
Its fast, its affordable, its got plenty of storage (for now). Shipping is included, politics are not. Gotta love B&H!
Leonard Schulist (verified owner) –
It’s nice that it doesn’t have a separate power switch, just plug it in to turn it on. I keep past project video files on it. Good storage for a great price.

Product is quick and functional. My bride and I each own one. I’d buy a third if needed. Happy customer here!
