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!

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

Outgrew my 5TB drive, and this is the replacement. The drive is silent except for the occasional light chunk of the drive heads moving. I get about 120 MB/s read/write speeds via the USB 3 cable.

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.

The Seagate 8TB Backup Plus drive was the perfect solution for the continued backup of my files. It’s fast, easy and affordable!

Great product and great support from Seagate too. I bought a second one because I liked the built-in USB hub and when my first one quit working I ordered a second. Upon arrival, I tested the first unit with the new power supply and found that the first one was still good, so all I needed was a replacement AC adapter for my original. I contacted Seagate and they gave me all of the specs (barrel size, amperage & polarity) I needed in order to order one. Now I have 2 working drives and I’m using one of them strictly for video files. These are a fantastic value.

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 got this because my current 3TB drive had reached its max for all the movies stored on it. This has worked out great so far and I’ve used it to dump lots of music and photos on it as well. We like to watch movies through our Apple TV with it and so far I’ve seen zero issues. Great price and lots of storage as well. Not very noisy either. I would definitely buy another if needed.

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).

I love my new Seagate 4 TB external hard drive with USB Hub. I opened the box, found all the parts carefully wrapped, unwrapped them, plugged the cable into my computer & the external drive, and started downloading movies to the external drive. It worked flawlessly and the movies downloaded quickly. I have several other Seagate external drives about 5 years old, and they are also working flawlessly today.

my primary laptop is a mac, but i use pc’s to work on media… so this was a perfect solution. if you want to use time machine, you must format it for a mac using disk utility. if you want to use it with time machine and still use it on a pc, there is a paragon driver available for windows that allows you to access the drive once its been formatted for macs.

I bought 2 of these. One has failed and is currently sitting at a data recovery company to get the FCPX projects off of it.. Although we always back up footage the actual projects / libraries were on this drive. We will be out around $1000 to get our data back. Plus we have to take parts from the other one to use to get the data off of the first one. The recovery company said they see a lot os Seagate drives..Save yourself from the hassle that these drives will cost you.
