I ordered (2) 16TB Seagate drives for a critical client deliverable. B&H was the only store that had these in stock and they were 25-50% cheaper! Shipping was fast and accurate as well. I was pleasantly surprised, and my client was able to meet their court mandated deadlines. Thank you so much & great work!

I am using this drive as a on-site backup for my desktop and it does the job. My operating system Win10 provides all the tools to back my files up on an external drive. What I am looking for is a drive that starts empty and the full capacity that its designation states. This Seagate drive, however still comes with a bunch of preloaded files and apps including backup management tools that I really don’t want. I find it annoying that I have to reformat a brand new drive to get rid of all those unwanted preloads.

This is my 3rd Seagate unit (the other two are 5TB size). Unfortunately, one of the older units gave indications of dying and I bought the 8TB unit. I formatted the 8TB unit with the Mac Disk Utility and was up and running in less than 10 minutes. And the unit is working perfectly.

Very satisfied, seems sturdy. Works great after a couple of weeks, of course we’ll have to wait and see after a year or two.

This is my 2nd Seagate expansion Drive, I also have an 8TB. The plug and play and easy to use Toolkit software make backups easy. The drives are also very quiet.

What can you say about a little black box that you plug in and let it do its thing to store all kinds of data, photos and videos. It just works. Easy to reformat for MacOS. This is number three of these for my workgroup and will not be the last.

I only use mechanical hard drives for Time Machine backup for my Macs. Every brand doesn’t seem to work well for this purpose so I buy WD or Seagate for this. I use 2 drives along with a cloud backup.

These two Seagate 8TB drives are the third set I have purchased to back up my photographic library. The others have been retired, since they are almost full. Over many years I have relied on Seagate drives and prefer them over all other. Very dependable. Len Holland

Mine came with a 14TB Seagate IronWolf Pro. This drive can go for over $400 on Amazon and at the $200 price I paid for this, it was a steal. Tested with CrystalDiskMark, Sequential speeds of 250MB/s read and write. Great for bulk storage of videos, games, etc. Can be shucked to use the 14TB drive as an internal hard drive, albeit voiding the warranty.

It’s a great value for the money. But as some of the reviews mentioned, it’s noisy. Still, I thought: eh, how bad can it be? But, honestly, it’s CRAZY loud. And if you set it on any kind of surface that resonates / bounces sound, it’s worse. If you need cheap storage go for it, but for a drive you have to live with every day it may be worth it to look elsewhere, even if it means spending more.
