Pretty good price for the size of TB. Every one else has a higher price.

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.

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.

I have no issue with the item itself. What I do have an issue with is that it is advertised as 24 TB, even on the box itself, and the total free space is 21.8 TB, which is 2.2 TB less than advertised. And no, there is not stuff preloaded that takes up 2.2 TB. The files on it already take up 31.5 MB of space.

Few weeks of usage - using as a physical backup of last resort for the home server which I also backup to the cloud my ZFS raid.
Reformatted the drive as ext4 to preserve Linux permissions and had no issues with that - the backup of last resort is just using rsync with a snapshot weekly.

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.

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.

I have multiple 4G/5G/6G drives, and I'm the guy that likes to keep multiple backups. I do a lot of video editing, so this 24G unit comes in very handy.
