Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's a great drive. Works very well. Occasionally some very, very quiet disk noises, nothing too loud though

Great terabyte to price ratio but it is a bit loud and a bit slow to start. Overall good buy

A little more compact compared to traditional external drives. Good design for cooling & relatively quiet. The USB3 cable included was 36" in length (product description often states 18"), which worked well for my needs.

Its a good product so far, great amount of space, it just takes my computer a few extra moments to think about switching from my desktop space to looking through its space. Nothing longer than a minute at most, so not bad at all, i feel as though its likely fixable but Im not even bothered enough to try

I purchased this to backup my UHD media files. I have a 32 TB Synology server, it gives me just over 20TB of protected storage. I added a 16TB RaidBox via USB and loaded all of my UHD files on it. Concerned with no backup in the event of the RaidBox failing, I pulled the trigger on this 24TB Expansion drive. Once I backed up all my files, I unplugged it and set it on a shelf. As I add more UHD media to my collection, I will continue to add the files to the backup. All things considered, I am very pleased with the drive. It is fast, but it does get quite warm.

Awesome external hard drive to back-up my computers. It's amazing how well it works despite of managing large amounts of data, I recommend this product if you need to store large amounts of data because it is not that big.

It was a good price. The amount of TB is really good. Although it showed about 2 TB less than it should have. That seems a lot space taken up for other things. I will recheck on this later.

I bought this for extra storage for my storage and games for PC. This works quite well. It has a good amount of space and it can play games that from a certain era very well. It can play games like high on life and South of midnight either in 4k or 1080p with minimum or no stutters depending on the textures for example. It can play games that were from PS4 Xbox 360 era that were ported to PC quite well. I highly recommend this for storage or for paying video games that aren't to texture heavy.

I’m a content creator hoarding 8 K footage, and this behemoth finally stopped my “scratch‑disk shuffle.” Large‑file copies average 220 MB/s sustained over USB 3.0; a full 4 TB project dump finished overnight with bandwidth to spare. The drive is nearly silent—fan noise from my PC masks it entirely. Seagate’s Rescue Data Recovery was the clincher; knowing professional recovery is covered for three years lets me sleep at night. Wish the enclosure had a USB‑C port for future‑proofing, but the included 18‑inch Type‑A cable is sturdy. Perfect bulk storage for Plex, Time Machine, or cold archives.

Works well with no problems. The price per byte is hard to beat. Not as fast as a solid state version, but for the price and the space it's plenty fast.

Works great and surprisingly fast! Love the large capacity!

The item was as described, happy with it. At 24TB it will be a while until I ran out of hard drive space.

Did not realize this was an optical drive until after I bought it. Despite that, the storage capacity for the price… cant pass it up.

so far, so good - great price for a massive 24TB external hard drive, though is a bit early to tell for a storage device like this (will update this review if any problems in the future). files have been easy to transfer onto the drive, and after 2 months, haven't experienced any issues. think the main fear with any hard drive would be data corruption/loss over time, so it'll be interesting to see what these reviews look like in a few years' time - in the meantime, this drive does exactly what it says on the tin.

This is working perfectly so far! It was easy to plug in and start backing up data. Hopefully this one lasts longer than the other brand I had.

Great Price for huge storage. Reasonably fast for a spinning drive. Cheaper than buying the drive inside it outright.

I think this hard drive is great these seem to be the standard for high capacity desktop hard drives and bought the 24 TB and have had no issues I will update soon if anything changes

A huge amount of storage for about $12 per terabyte. Anthing less than $15 per terabyte is a good buy. Drive works as advertised,

I cannot speak as to the durability of this item but so far I have been extremely satisfied with its performance.

Very useful. Helps with backing up big files so i dont need to waste internet bandwidth redownloading them.
