This drive was easy to set up. It is fast and works flawlessly. I bought this unit to replace another brand drive that failed almost immediatley after it was purchased. I would certainly buy another.

Customer for life! Thank you, B&H you have such an awesome team. This product arrived extremely quickly, in a well protected packaging. Overall Seagate is a great product, data read and write speed is fast, quality material such as the hard drive housing is dourable, needs a little more air circulation. I currently own 10x of this 8TB expansion drive. I will be ordering more of this soon. Because B&H provides the best products, low pricing and expedited shipping.

Needed more space as videos and other programs filled up hard drive on my PC. This provided so much more room that I was able to free up memory on my computer and it also is running better now. It transfer files relatively fast.

I have always had good experiences with Seagate products. The Seagate 8TB Expansion Desktop USB 3.0 External Hard Drive has been no different. It is a good product for a reasonable price.

I am a professional photographer. I have been buying Seagate drives to back up my clients projects. The drives work and the price is fair. What else is there to say. However, I have a story to tell. I always work with two drives at a time. One of the drives failed two weeks ago. The drive was out of warranty. Seagate had me send them the drive to check out. They replaced it with a working drive. Now that is a stand up company!

I use a mac, formatted this device to my mac and it works great. It’s load and unloads faster than I thought. If I remember correctly, it took 35 minutes to upload 200 gb. Impressive.

Working as expected. Only 4 stars because nothing is absolutely perfect.

Terrible hard drive. So noisy constant clunking and banging noise the could be heard two rooms away. Very slow reads and writes maybe do to the defect causing the noise. I’m exchanging it for a second one but the second it gets noisy it’s getting returned and I’m through with Seagate products.

This was a quick and easy setup for my ps4. So far, so good.

For a 50-yr old, tech-challenged chick, this external hard drive was very easy to set up. I plugged it in to my 64-bit op system and started moving large quantities of files to the new expansion hard drive. I use Win7 professional and have the older usb 2.0. Moving from computer to external did take some time (huge files). However, moving/organizing the files within the seagate itself flew.

It was late in being delivered but I would blame that more on the post office than the manufacturer. I have not owned it for to long to have had mush of a chance to find to many faults but so far it seems to work as one would have have expect. I do have one issue but it’s more the industry than this product it’s self and that is that there is less room on the drive than is advertised. When they say that there is so much room on the drive that is not usable space but space before all the stuff on the drive that takes up space on the drive so it’s usable.

No set up needed. Just plug it in! Works well

I wish SSDs were cheap enough to make old fashioned HHDs disappear. This drive was cheap and slow, but will work as the backup location it was immediately demoted to. It’s fine for what it is.

I guess that is all I can tell so far. Why ask for a review just after purchase? I need time, at least a year or three to see how reliable it is.

This died after only backing up once. A couple of weeks after backing it up, I plugged it back into my PC to do another backup, and it just beeped and I could hear the arm motor try to move. Very disappointed.
