It was immediately recognized and it is fast.

The purchase process thru B&H was flawless during the pandemic. Quick and Easy. This drive is somewhat slow. The support manual is so small that you need magnifying glass to read it. This is an average unit.

I own a couple of these. I tried another well known brand and two of them failed on me relatively early in their lifespan. The ones I have run everyday for 8-10-12 hours and I’ve never had a Seagate fail. Pricing is on par with other manufacturers.

Good capacity, reputation of reliability

I use this drive as back up drive for my photography business, it was simple to set up and use out of the box. It is a lot bigger than a normal external drive, but well worth it.

i love that I have so much storage in a small attactive devise. It was very easy to install. Thank for offering it in red, my favorite color.

Was looking forward to this drive as I’ve trusted Seagate for years. But must have gotten a lemon.

I have two in different colors for easy identification. Excellent backup drive, but the case is kind of slippery and I worried about it sliding off a desk or table. I put an Xcellon anti-slip pad on the bottom; no problems!

Reviews said devise was loud, was expecting John Force Funny Car type noise. Not so, some low level clicking once in a while. It had trouble backing up with the software as delivered. I erased the disk and then no problem.

For iMac Time Machine backups. working fine so far.

Had some initial problems with the Seagate Dashboard software flashing warnings that the drive was full, when in reality only about 200GB was used (i.e., it was about 5% full). Contacted Seagate, which offered no solution. Decided that it might be the software, so deleted the software and everything seems to be all right. Otherwise, very quiet and fast.

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’s really much quicker than the old 1TB Western Digital External Hard Drive that I had. I was able to offload everything from it in a fairly short amount of time. The WD hard drive used to take -forever- to open and display the AutoPlay alert box, but the Seagate hard drive opens it almost instantly.

Not only do I like the size and color but I love its complete silence. Plug it in and hide it behind your laptop lid and it disappears from view. It works well and surreptitiously. Its plenty fast enough to be used as a Mac Time Machine backup and anything else. And lets not forget that it is portable.

I have five more hard drives, this one came with a lower finish than the others of the same make and model.
Shany Kovacek (verified owner) –
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.
Jeanie Abshire (verified owner) –
Excellent form factor and space for the price.

Very big 5Tb capacity in your pocket. In my 2019 mac mini read and write speeds between 130 – 140 mbps. Very Good speed for a traditional spinning disc. Nice and discret design.
