Read fine but writing to the drive is very unreliable. Only a 3-week window for return/exchange with BB so they drive has gone back to Seagate for replacement.
I was very surprised and disappointed at the poor performance, I've been using Seagate drove for nearly 30 years and have always had very good results. How this is a one-off and not a reflection of the current level of quality from Seagate

Tons of space and it is very fast in copying/accessing files. Also sleek and, although it does make some noise when it's being accessed, it's pretty quiet.

Seagate makes awful drives, which, while a bit cheaper than WD and the others, are not worth the savings. I will never use them again based on the recent failed drives and poor technical support.
I have had only a few problems with drives; all of the ones I had that died were this brand. The most recent was awful; they don't have phone support and offer a chat with associates who are very difficult to communicate with.
My problem was with a 16TB drive I had for a few weeks. Suddenly, the 10TB of video files turned into 5TB, and many files turned into 0KB for no reason. After support told me they could try and restore the drive and, if not, send me back the original, they sent me a 5TB drive with just that data on it and said it was restored. I reached out and told them the mistake. They said they would try again, and, then there was no response, and they said the lab got rid of the original drive. PLEASE don't let this happen to you.

So far so good. I had to “repair” it once but that happens using an external exfat drive with a Mac. Had to repair using my Lenova Laptop. Good idea if you don’t reformat for Mac to have a Windows computer available to clean up time to time
