I will be buying any more of these. Ease of use. Flawless play back and 8 TB’s . What more could you ask for. Just pick it up and go.!!!!!

Setting up the drive is so easy and I have found it to be a solid and sturdy product. I own 2, one for use and one for backup.

It is so compact, I just felt cheated, because, buying the drive for use a long time, I just haven’t seen longevity in small drives, having had top ranked Samsung drives wear out weeks after the Warranty runs out. It maintains download speeds after a few minutes, unlike my Samsung SSDs, sometimes starting at 152 Mbps dropping below 12 Mbps, and taking hours to transfer digital files that only takes minutes on these. I am sold on Seagate AGAIN, after they’re newer drives began failing in less than 5 years. I still have working 15+ or more Seagate drives.

We use these to store 1080p video files of our finished television programs. Good to have a reliable copy on hand instead of only out there in the cloud somewhere. The 4TB allows for a lot of space for many shows to be archived.

A surprisingly perfect light and slim portable drive for travel. Very high quality and beautiful.

These little Seagate drives offer lots of storage for the price, and are powered by the USB connection (no power cord). A great solution for a laptop or desktop.

As soon as it arrived my laptop was able to breathe and it arrived in excellent condition

Quality Drive I’ve got over 10 of these Bad Boys. Very reliable and they’re my go to for external hard drives.

Very good, It’s soooooooo gooooood

Using the little short cord, it was immediately recognized by the computer. Time will tell, of course, its reliability. I will the Toolkit software would simply use the date stamp to identify older files instead of adding to the file label. Adding the extra wording to the file label makes it more complicated to simply use copy and paste to restore an old version.

Transfer speed thru a USB 3 port on a brand new computer is a pitiful 4 or 5 MB/s. My Western Digital drive is at least 10-15 times faster thru the same port. I would return it but I am concerned about erasing the sensitive data that I have already copied to it. I guess it will be a pretty drink coaster!

It works. It’s quiet. It’s small. It’s fast. It’s connected to an ASUS router via USB 3.0. It’s nothing to get excited about…If only it was SSD at that price. It’s the end of my review.

This product seems to perform as advertised with no flaws thus far. The size is nice and the speed is impressive.
Maximillian Johnson (verified owner) –
I was surprised at the small footprint of this mid-sized backup external hard drive. It is easy to set up and once done, I don;t have to think (much) about it. Great investment for under $100.
Ervin Cummings (verified owner) –
We have been using Seagate external disks for 6 years, we never have had troubles. At this time, I purchased it again. It is cheaper than amazon, delivery is quicker too. Thanks to B&h

My old CaCie backup was full and no longer big enough. The Seagate 4TB was simple to set up and to configure as my backup and my Time Machine source. Loving it!
Tristian Strosin (verified owner) –
I connected it to my macbook pro It connects quickly and without any problems I highly recommend the product
Kaelyn Hodkiewicz (verified owner) –
Being a not so tech gal this was easy as pie to set up with no problems and take up little space on my desk and will hold lots of my raw file. Great drive.

i have many of these drives, and carry about 6 of them on tours in the world of usually 8 months a year so i always have the information available, for reference or for working
