Customers are saying

Customers recognize the Expansion 20TB External Hard Drive for its substantial storage capacity and satisfactory overall performance. While some appreciate its pre-formatted ExFAT for broad compatibility, others have concerns about the drive's write speeds and connectivity limitations. The noise level is acceptable for most users.

    I am shooting a documentary and need two hard drives, one for the videographer and one for me to add archival footage. I appreciated how easy it was to format and use, especially for someone with intermediate video skills. Also for the amount of storage the price could not be beat.

    Bought a year ago to help with videos storage need. Still going strong. Strong price value when compared with Western Digital. Time will tell if this harddrive will last, but so far so good.

    First of all, it's not noisy like other people have written in their reviews. It's super quiet, & works right out of the box. All of my Seagate Drives have stood the test of time that I own, so I'm very happy w/my purchase so far. Also, it's 20TB, & was on sale at a good price @BB.
