Overall, great product for the gamers that seem to run out of space so fast!

I purchased two of these. The first one I opened has been running just fine for months (9). The second one had to be returned and replaced after just 5 days of use. It just quit working and was no longer recognized. Tried it on multiple systems with the same result. Best Buy replaced it thanks to my Best Buy Total Plus membership and I was just backing up to it when this happened. So I don't know if this was just a one off fluke or not. I would suggest any new buyer give it a run with non-important data for a week or two before trusting it. 24TB is a lot of data.

Good price for a lot of storage. I use it for a raid array backup. Seagate provides an excellent warranty service. I know this because a drive in my array failed and Seagate backed it up with free data recovery but I opted for a drive replacement without data recovery.

Overall I really like the drive. Has added a ton of storage for things that dont need super quick access.. The ONLY thing I dont like and need to find where I can set it, is it takes FOREVER to wake back up once it idles down. Once I get that set to a bit higher setting should be a great addition.

Works great! Great value for the money. Just plug it in and it immediately shows up as an additional drive in windows. I saw several reviews that talked about the drive being very loud. That has not been my experience. I've copied over 20TB of data to this drive and I hardly know it is running.

After a lot of searching and comparing, this was the best bang for the buck in terms of price for 24tb. So far it's been perfect, which is to be expected from Seagate anyway, but being assured backup files are safe is the most important thing. With Seagate, it's the safest decision you can make.

Seemed slow to finish transfers from smaller 8TB drives but I'm not sure the issue wasn't with the old drives. Not very noisy by my standards. Added 20 TB so far, no problems. I don't recall if it arrived EXFAT or not, but I converted to that format anyhow.
