    I had to buy a larger drive because Seagate says no way to delete older files from smaller drive thus freeing up room for newer files.

    This is not what I wanted, I was unable to pull up the videos on my TV with this Seagate I had to return it to best Buy and I purchased a Seagate 4TB External Hard Drive - Blue and it looks like its going to work out for me. I am waiting for The Seagate 5TB External Hard Drive that I can pull up my Videos on my TV so that I can purchase. The Seagate is the only External Hard Drive that I will use.
