I purchased two 4TB Seagate Backup Plus drives to store videos and photos. These were formatted to work with both MAC and PCs right out of the box. I simply plugged them in, and started copying images. No formatting, no software updates, they just worked. Very pleased!

Fast… Rugged… Quality… This drive ate up all my data from various portable media without a single burp…. Rocket fast and gives confidence to any backup task

Small compact, ready to use. Just a little slower writing speed, but ok for photo storage.

I own two of these 8TB Drives, one is the White Mac version and the other is the black generic 8TB version with the 2 USB hubs. I love these drives. So far, fast and reliable. I switched to Seagate for all my backups about 3 years ago. So glad I did.

8TB and a HUb that supports USB 3.0 It’s like my dream comes true. Real power. real speed
Leila Wuckert (verified owner) –
My experience with this drive has been that it never completes a full 1T back-up over several weeks, is painfully slow, and keeps disconnecting from my server. I have spent countless hours trying to get this to work as promised.

Ordering was easy. Delivery was speedy. Installation went smoothly. …… and it’s so petite and cute on my desk.

Compact, portable and fasssst! I now have a couple of these that I use for storing my images-in lieu of burdening my computer.

working just fine; transfers data from my computer a little faster than my other five-year old external hard drive

Just plug and play. No messing with formatting. Perfect for Mac Pro.
Favian Schneider (verified owner) –
I can see a noticeable improvement in the speed with which Lightroom loads my photographs now that I have them on this drive. The previous drive, also external (USB), was much slower.
Derek Quigley (verified owner) –
Very good, no problem
Cheyenne Eichmann (verified owner) –
It was immediately recognized and it is fast.

Works great.

I jusdt got the request for a review on this disk drive from B&H. I’ve only used it for a few days now but it seems to work fine. I am using it for Time Machine on a Mac Powerbook.

This is a dream for anyone who uses a media player! it’s fast, it’s HUGE capacity makes it a really useful drive. It’s simple to reformat to NTSF (although I use a mac my media player does not utilise HSF) Be advised – it does take longer than any other drive to format. I have Paragon NTSF on my mac and this makes it a snap to transfer files. I was very impressed with the footprint of theSeagate 8TB Desktop Drive with Integrated USB Hub for Mac. Small enough to fit in anywhere. The power supply is excellent, it comes with all plug type adapters for any power outlet world wide. The PSU is beefy too. with a nice 3 amp output. The use hub is handy, you can hang a couple more devices off the drive as well. i would recommend either low powered devices or self powered usb devices such as a desktop hard drive. You must take into account that the hub and drive share the same power supply. All in all a great investment for your home or office, If you need mass storage this one will certainly be the go for you.

I’m always nervous about committing so much data to a large drive and I’ve found that a new drive takes at least 9 months before you know if it has problems. So I’ll have to wait to evaluate its reliability but the capacity for the price is outstanding.

I have several of the drives on my network that are used to store documents and backups of important data using backup software. They all work very well.

I have a dozen or so of these, we use them to image our server and have a 12 week rotation. They’re pretty bullet proof. Also, they don’t have the built in backup software like the WDs have. We use Bitlocker, so having to first negotiate the built in encryption to get to the Bitlocker login is a pain.
