Built with the form factor of a credit card, the 4TB One Touch USB 3.2 Gen 1 External Hard Drive from Seagate lets you seamlessly scroll, edit, organize, and directly stream a large collection of stored photos and videos. Beneath its red exterior, the One Touch is equipped with a 4TB hard drive and a bus-powered USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) interface. The One Touch is formatted as exFAT, meaning it will work with both Windows 7 and later as well as macOS 10.12 and later without the need for a reformat. However, a reformat may be required for use with Apple’s Time Machine.
Included with Seagate’s One Touch HDD is an 18″ USB 3.2 Gen 1 cable, a one-year membership to Mylio Create, and a four-month membership to Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography plan.
Note: Both Mylio Create and Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography Plan are redeemable during product registration and may not be available in all countries. Adobe’s plan is available to users 13 and older, requires a network connection, an Adobe ID, and must be redeemed within one year of drive registration.

too slow for work, but fine for backup.

I have this running to take care of all my backups. Both of what Windows keeps bugging about plus pictures and videos that I want to save.

It’s not fast, it’s not expensive, but it works!

I got two of these to act as a sort of USB RAID 1 setup with some simple disk mirroring software. I reformatted both drives to NTFS, and after the lazy format finally finished, I am seeing throughput of around 130MB/s on large files. That is about as good a storage solution as you are going to get for $250, and it is convenient and portable. These drives replaced some older 2GB drives that had gotten too small. All of them are Seagates, never had a problem, unlike WD and some other brands. You can use different-colored drives for different purposes.

It is small, light and reliable. I liked the price.

Works great for online photo storage and I love the color. Easy to distinguish among other hard drives. Easy format to make Mac compatible.

About 1/3 the size of my other Seagate 5TB hard drive. Neat-o.

too slow for recording or editing, but fine for archive backup.

Seagate makes great products, so when i was looking for a backup drive for pictures this was my first choice. B&H quickly got it here and all is good.

My video & photography business eats up space like crazy (as I’m sure you all know). The 2 TB has been a great inexpensive solution for storage. Transfer speed is fast enough for photo work, but lags a little if trying to edit video direct. Better to transfer to open space on PC HD then back again when through. I like Ruggard case option for use on site. Great prices.

So far, My Seagate 2TB One Touch USB 3.2 Gen 1 External Hard Drive is working fine.

The instructions are straightforward, plug in, select folders to backup and the schedule and done.

I had a rather old HD that I wanted to replace. This unit came up on sale so I purchased it. I connected it, and immediately formatted the drive and moved all my data to it, very quickly. Since then, rendering videos, copying files between devices are all performed very quickly.

It’s a hard drive, it works. Only problem I have (one which all hard drives have) is that the ‘size’ is always grossly overstated. Actually size, about 3.6TB. If you needed 4, get a 5TB drive. :-/

Very good for the price.

I use this drive for storage mostly. I’m an amateur photographer and like to store some off the main drive. This drive is a fairly inexpensive way to do that.

Fast, complete, easy, diligent.

Fairly fast writing and reading unit. Compact and well designed. So far so good – as long as it lasts for several years.
Hank Konopelski (verified owner) –
I recomend it.

Working very well, quiet and smooth.
