SMR Drive! Prepare to WAIT!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.WARNING, this uses SMR technology! If you frequently work with, and modify, large files (20GB+), be prepared to wait while the drive rewrites itself. 45 minutes of work, 2 hours of waiting for it to respond.

Drive failed in first week of use.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to back up my computer in an external case. After I'd backed up about 5 TB of stuff the drive stopped responding. I tried moving it to another case, connecting it to another computer, and still no response (it is no longer seen), but placing another hard drive into the same cases show no problem. I would return the drive except it is full of non-encrypted personal data (including financial stuff).

Solid game storage drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid HDD, good for game storage. Wish it was a bit faster than 5400rpm, but runs a little quieter than the faster drives.

better than WD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to be a Western Digital only HD user, but lately the quality seems to have dropped. This is my fourth Seagate drive in the last few years and they seem to hold up better.

Poor Internal 8TB HD from Seagate
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Drawbacks: 1) Frequently and easily fragmented. 2) Unstable when I download files. 3) Copying files onto this HD could be as slow as 2 Mb/sec especially when I was downloading files. 4) May freeze and slow down Chrome. I returned this HD and found a good internal HD from WD. My experience for external HD is exactly opposite between WD and Seagate. WD's external 8TB HD runs too hot (i.e., >55 deg C).
