    If you need an hdd from a reliable brand this is your best shot. My only complaint is that it's loud, and that's because it's an hdd.

    Great HDD for storing massive information libraries to reference, but setup is tricky. It didn't recognize the HDD initially so I had to jump through a few hoops to get my PC to recognize the drive then partition it for use

    Well I dont know if its this new hdd or my pc other components which makes it not upload windows ocassionally and freezes up once on a while. Pc a lil too slow for my taste specially compared to my old 4tb hdd buy it at your own risk, perhaps I need a faster processor or more memory but the makers of the hdd dont mention that need
