    Better than Passport

    I bought this as an alternative to the passport. The passport I bought was defective and I couldn't use it so I replaced it with the Seagate. This was way easier to navigate and even with thousands of items including long videos it downloads fast.

    Used to replace my old Seagate that had a few sectors go bad so it would not boot up Windows. Installation was easy and I had my system close to normal in several hours. Key is to have your current hard drive backed up just in case of failure.

    I purchased this drive to be able to store music, photos and video and not clog up my PC which has a really small memory capacity and slows down when I store too much media in it. So far it's been working good after 2 months. Would recommend.

    This is a great HDD. I disassembled it and used it to upgrade my PS4 HDD. You can find YouTube videos on how to disassemble it if you want to do the same. It's pretty fast and I haven't had any issues with it so far.

    Great Back up drive

    I have purchased Seagate and Western Digital over the past many years. My experience is Western Digital is okay, but is out shined by Seagate. Seagate in every case has at least lasted the twice as long as Western Digital. The only thing that Seagate lacks that WD has is Password and Encryption on their drives, that is why I only gave it 4 stars. Quality is worth 5 stars.

    This is the second one I got. I used it to back up my photos and MacBooks. I always find it performs well via USB 3.0 connection. I hardly experienced any lag when using Lightroom to access photos on the hard drive.

    This is a super quiet drive with tons of space and can hook up to the USB port of my router to create a "quasi-NAS". I can reach the drive from any of the PCs hooked up to my network. The price vs. storage point is more than perfect!
