    I cant not believe how much storage this drive contains, I use it to store mainly photos and when backing up my fikes I then store it away in a fire proof safe,

    So far so good with no issues. This is a great price for such a large capacity. The 26TB only has 23TB of actual storage, but for the price it still beats the competition and has a great look to it.

    External Harddrive

    The 26TB Seagate Expansion is a powerhouse for massive data hoarding and archiving, offering an unmatched cost-per-terabyte value. While its speeds are typical for a mechanical hard drive, and its desktop form factor limits portability, it is an excellent and affordable choice for local, high-capacity backups and media libraries.

    It holds a lot of stuff. But, it is very slow to wake up and be usable. I would recommend this for users who want to archive a lot of data. Don't get this if you need rapid data access or for gaming use.

    Use this to back up my digital photo and video collection from the past 15 years. Good speed. Really large drive that allows me to backup multiple hard drives on my PC onto 1 for off-site storage. Very pleased so far.

    Works well. But there is a little access delay after the drive isn't used for a while. But does work quickly after drive wakes up.

    Kinda slow file transfers, sort of loud. But with the 26TB space, and in an all in one storage unit. I love it. Easy yo setup. And just drag and drop file transfers.

    As an external hd the expansion line has some of the best value per terabyte or of any company. Mine have been running a couple months and no complaints. Running two of them.

    This unit defiantly gets the job done, but it is noisy and spins up and down alot and causes lag on your computer when it does that.
