    This is an awesome portable hard drive. It does NOT require a power supply (either by an outlet or extra USB connection). It functions as a hard drive, and it runs fast (not 7200 rpm, but an adequate 5400). I was able to get it at $130, which made it a steal. If you need extra storage, you can't go wrong with this!

    I had 4 Western Digital external backup devices fail in 3 months. They were all 5 years old or more, so it was their time. Western Digital was no help so I went looking for an alternative and found Seagate 4 TB device. Has worked as described. Everything was backed up from the WD devices to the Seagate in an hour.

    I bought this for my husband for Christmas because his PlayStation 4 had no memory left. This was the best gift I could’ve given him ( or the worst LOL ) He had to delete games before due to no memory but we were able to recover some of them and now he’s been playing nonstop

    Bought because I needed the size. Attempted a few large transfers via USB 3 and transfer speed was all over the board. Seemed to work more reliable over USB 2. Attempted on different devices. At times it would appear to hang. Believe I have one on the fritz and need to already RMA. User experience will vary.

    I have only utilized the drive for a short time. As such, aI can't speak to the longevity of this device. I have used Seagate drives in the past and had good experience with them. No drive will last indefinitely. I only hope that this drive will give me some warning before it begins to fail.
