    This external has a great designed. The use and placement of the usb hub is convenient. While the sleek design allows for the the external to be payed flat or on its side.

    Tons of space for a good price. Great for a second or third backup copy. Not necessarily great for working off of. Not fast enough for 4K video.

    8GB is sufficient for most people these days. I store all my pictures, documents on this hard drive. It's not a high performance drive and should only be used for archiving.

    Updated seagate external drive is great buy. The drive holds all the data you need in one drive. Seagate has been very reliable so far.

    I neede something that provided a lot of storage, was reliable, and easy to use. This fit the bill. I wanted to back up my photos, videos, and music libraries that I've amassed over the years, and I was looking for a hard drive that offered the capacity that I needed now, but also had room for more in the future. At 8TB, this more than fit the bill. I did my research, and this brand has a good track record of reliability. I got this on sale, which made it an even sweeter deal. :) Very happy with this purchase.

    Good value for the size, but the transfer rate is a bit slow. Not a problem for using it as archival storage, but I wouldn't work off of it.
