    I also got this on sale for $126 and for 4TB hard drive it is a great deal. No power cord needed and it is small for the storage. My last external was a 2TB brick that needed to be powered by outlet and was mostly Inconvienent but was all they had at the time. This one is WAY better.

    Got this drive 1yr ago to use for backup purposes— I only use it when not connected to WiFi or Bluetooth for added security. Partitioned it to do two time machine backups plus a general “photos” backup for our two macs. Got this one because of short-term international travel where I needed a portable backup. Works great; sleek and lightweight to help stay under baggage weight.

    It's amazing how low the prices of hard disk drives have become. With this small drive, I was able to consolidate six other older portable drives that I was using to store media files. No more swapping drives around when I want to watch a movie or TV show on iTunes!

    4tb in a portable drive is great, no need for external power either makes this a must have for anyone that needs to back up their computers, hold a lot of music and pics and videos, or for additional storage on your Xbox one. Great drive at a good price.

    Meets expectations so far. I exchanged a 5TB WD that failed twice after a few weeks for this 4TB Seagate, which has been working fine for two months.

    I'm using this as a "nas" drive which is connected to my router and shared across the network. I didn't test the write speeds on my computer before connecting it to the router but I'm pretty certain based on reviews that it's not a bottleneck. Finally for the price and quality you can't beat it. It's a little thicker than most externals but who cares when you have 4TB at hand.

    I had gotten this hard drive with a sale going on and a coupon but that only sweetened the deal. I love the huge amount of space, so far it seems to work perfectly (I have it hooked up to my xbox one) runs quickly and proficiently. Also the geek squad 2year replace it warranty was only 20 bucks if I remember correctly which is an awesome safety net to have.

    Running out of storage sucks. This thing is a lifesaver! It's fast and has enough storage for all my digital needs. It's small, portable and has proven it's durability as well. Excellent product for home and on the go!

    Great Portable Hard Drive

    I bought two of these drives and they are great portable drives, have had no issues, also have a smaller 2TB drive also, this brand has always been a great performer. I like how little this drive weights and makes a great companion to my laptop. I can store music, movies, and office documents with plenty of room for more. Can't go wrong purchasing this.
