Data's Best Friend
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I couldn't believe when I maxed out a 3tb hard drive, so this time I got a 4tb. That should solve it!

4TB for cheap
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this 4TB for 110 after tax, and it's great value, but it is a little thick though. Can't fit this in a jeans pocket.

Failed after 4 years
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this drive since 2019 and it recently failed. It refuses to power up any more. I'd stay away from HDD backup drives and stick with SSD.

Dont Buy!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had this for 1 month and then went bad. Used it for my photo back up. Started making clicking noise and within a week of that it would not open. I have been told before about how terrible Seagate products are but this is really bad. Seriously, don't buy. Its totally not worth your time to have to redo everything, if you recover everything.

Non-stop Clicking
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The first drive that I bought started making clicking noises a couple of weeks after purchasing. Like the drive head was trying to park twice a second. This would continue non-stop until the drive was re-plugged. If any applications were using the drive when this started, they would slow to a crawl and become unusable. I swapped the first drive with another one of the same type, and it started doing the same thing within a month. Now I'll be looking to replace this drive with another one from a different manufacturer. Won't be buying Seagate again.

Fragile cables
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cables are sooooo fragile. You move it a little and it breaks and then you can't access your files anymore and you have to get it fixed or it breaks off, or you have to buy a new one. This has happened 3 times already. These things are garbage. If they'd use different cables and if they really kept my files safe, I'd give it 5 stars, but this is ridiculous.

Large HD but don't keep anything important on it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not count this as a one star rating. It's a zero star rating. This hard drive is literally 2 months old, manufactured 10/2016. I have had it for a week. It no longer works. I know this could happen with any mechanical hard drive of any brand but come on 2 months old and it's done. I will no longer be using Seagate hard drives for any custom builds or external storage. Probably best to avoid Seagate products. I will not be sending this back to Seagate but to Best Buy for a refund

Won't allow my PC to restart
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Windows 7 won't restart when this drive is plugged in. Seagate support page says the drive must be unplugged to reboot PC. Terrible!! PC won't restart upon power failure, windows update, or similar.
