Customers say
Customers find the external hard drive has good storage capacity, with one mentioning it can copy 4.5TB files, and appreciate its quality and value for money. The drive is easy to set up and use, and works seamlessly with both PCs and Macs. However, customers report mixed experiences with functionality, with some saying it works right out of the box while others report it stops working. Durability is a concern, with multiple customers reporting it broke within a month of use. Speed performance is also mixed, with some finding it fast enough while others describe it as slow.

It does what it is supposed to
I do like Seagate products as they work as described and the build quality and feel is second to none (at least in this price range).This drive is perfectly compact and easy to slip into a pocket, bag or even an envelope if needs be. The cable length is adequate, although I’d prefer a couple of extra inches – I’m sure I’m not alone in that sentiment.Another thing I like about the size, is the uniformity with other drives – for example, the width and length are exactly the same for a 3T and 4T drive – only the depth is different, which for me saves a lot of time and effort.I’ve had no issues using it, it has worked perfectly well since the first plug-in until now.Also, it seems fairly rugged and strong; it survived an accidental drop down a flight of stairs without even a scratch, unlike the phone that fell out of the same pocket at the same time!!
I bought one for my husband and have now bought one for myself.
A great external hard drive for storing images, it’s fast and quiet.
Storage capacity
It arrived fast , out of the box, plugged and started without any problems but I ordered 6tb device . But it is actually 5.45 tb . I understand that may be the balance taken up for it’s software but if I knew that I would have bought 2 x 4tb my passport ,which they are much smaller and no need for power supply, much portable and less noisy.Disappointed with the storage capacity, early days just used it for one day so far.I didn’t want to send it back because had already started using it .It would have been nice to have a travel case of some sort.I must say ,so far so good .I bought Seagate because already have a 4tb, which I have had for 7 years and it is now full.
HARD DRIVE WORKS WELL & IS GOOD VALUE.
IT WORKS PERFECTLY FOR MY NEEDS SO I AM HAPPY WITH IT. & FOR 4 TB SIZE IT IS GOOD VALUE.
Reliable back up storage
I always buy seagate! Been using them for years so I can back up my photography!Very easy to use, I’d suggest getting a case for it to protect it, as they feel quite delicate. Although I can’t complain on durability as long as you treat it well! The size is great it’s quite small and light for the amount of storage!I’d buy this again and again!
wrong address
Very happy with the 16TB. However I wish that you could get it delivered to the right address.
Good company communications
1st one I bought corrupted within a month. Company were very helpful in trying make the drive work. They were unable to do this and sent me a free replacement. Their communication was very good keeping me informed at all times during the issue. So far the replacement is working fine.
You must be aware that
I purchased this 16 TB hard drive. You must be aware that it is not and will not be 16 terabytes. In the best-case scenario, it will be around 14.5 to 14.6 TB of usable space. This corresponds to the $16 times 10^{12}$ bytes stated by the manufacturer (which is 16 followed by 12 zeros in bytes). Therefore, when you buy a 16 TB hard drive, you will actually have approximately 14.5 TB of usable space available. The discrepancy arises because manufacturers typically define a terabyte as $10^{12}$ bytes (decimal), while operating systems measure capacity in gibibytes (GiB) or tebibytes (TiB), where $1 text{ TiB} = 2^{40}$ bytes (binary). Overall Impression (Based purely on capacity): While the actual usable space is lower than advertised, this is a standard industry practice. The drive delivers the capacity defined in decimal terabytes.
Achei o produto excelente pois formatou em NTFS (veio formatado como exFAT); como uso para fazer backup de muitos arquivos pesados precisou ser no formato NTFS que é compatível com o PC. Estou fazendo o backup plugando o HD através da USB 2.0, apesar de ter percebido que no USB 3.0 é muito mais rápido, porém para não dar problema de salvar os arquivos, prefiro fazer de forma mais lenta. O produto chegou muito rápido que esperava, adiantando em 5 dias úteis para receber. Até agora não deu nenhum erro das trilhas do HD e a capacidade dele me satisfez. Mais para frente quero comprar outro igual.
Toppen! Som förväntat.
Don’t be fooled .. saving your info to the ‘cloud’ .. is just sharing to someone else’s computer.Save everything on your own devices and share not with who knows who’s out in the aether.Privacy is privacy and this is how you do it.
