    It's a hard drive and it works as it should. I can't say much more other than no problems so far.

    Low weight, medium fast and low noise. However, when I copied a folder first time, it disappeared from the hard disk. Then I format the hard drive and copied the files and it worked. So far it is working great!! Seagate backup hard drives are best in my opinion!!

    After becoming desperate for storage on my Xbox One I found this on sale and got it with the help of a reward certificate. So far it is doing the job really well and I would say if you need a little more space for your Xbox One then do not hesitate to pick this up.

    Using half of this external hard drive for time machine back up for my iMac and the other half for storage for music files. Was easy to set up with the iMac and has been working flawlessly. Plan on purchasing another one for central storage drive for my home network.

    After reviewing various external HD's I found the Seagate had more storage and a lower price than other choices. I purchased this at the Thousand Oaks store, it wasn't in stock but picked it up with in 2 days, they always give excellent service.

    Great hard drive for the money. Don't have to break the bank thinking you need the 7200 for speed. This runs st 5400 but the difference is mere seconds. I would by again, unless the faster one goes on sale and is cheaper
