Solid product, no issues so far.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have multiple 5TB HDs and this Seagate drive has been rock solid so far. Fast enough for a 5TB HD using USB 3.0 and so far very reliable.
I would recommend this to a friend Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Lots of space, innocuous design
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great drive. Stays quiet, power saving mode. Good software to start, but can get in the way if you don't need it. Design is sharp in appearance, but also sharp in touch. Edges could be smoother. Drive is designed to lay flat (wide) rather than stand up/on narrow side.

Good amount of storage for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this being used as a partitioned drive for my time machine backup, my iTunes library and movies. So far so good. Had it for about a month now. The only issue I have with it would probably be my own fault which is not being able to write to it all the time. I may have formatted something wrong or just had the few amount of files that wouldn't write that were corrupted. I don't know for sure. Never had that issue before though. All in all a good price for a good working drive and ended up transferring all my backup files fast.

Not what I thought it was going to be
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I cannot figure out how to just access the drive without the proprietary software. And, with the proprietary software, you cannot just search for one file to restore; you have too restore the entire disk.
