    This thing is Junk, never buying Seagate products

    Easy to use is all I have good to say about this external hard drive. Less than 90 days into the product it chugs along slowly and now it just stops down completely. No help with warranty and I am screwed. Worst external HD I have ever purchased. JUNK.

    I have multiple Dish DVR's at my house with External HD Backups on them for extra recording space. THIS ONE! OMG. 3 Hours trying to format on my receiver, it claims it formatted, but the receiver doesn't even realize it is connected to the HD. I have NEVER had issues like this before. Returning!

    I use these drive for server backups primarily using windows backup. They work great with Server 2k8, 2K8R2, 2012 and 2012 R2. For some reason they are completely incompatible with SBS 2011. I spent 3 hours on the phone with Dell support attempting to troubleshoot only to find out that these were not on the compatibility list.

    I bought this for my new MacBook. It makes this annoying beeping sound whenever you transfer files. it doesn't do that all the time but when it does it drives me NUTSSSS. I get anxiety from the beeping sound, like it's about to explode or something. It also sounds like youre scanning an item at the grocery- very annoying.
