    It is pretty slow and really loud, although that is a lot of storage for the money!

    Its quite fast, compared to earlier models but both units I bought have already failed with click deaths less than a week after plugging in (and filling up). They are in no way reliable.

    After receiving this drive, I loaded a lot of videos into it. That worked OK and I could see the videos OK. But.. I use a WD TV Live media player and the player could not recognize any videos. I cleaned the unit and returned it to Best Buy. They were gracious enough to return my funds.

    Loud, feel like this is going to fail. The drive keeps bouncing back and forth in the shell. Can't deny the cost for the amount of storage at 26TB. Hope it holds up.

    A little disappointed that it really only has 22TB usable space on it. It seems to be quite compared to other drives I've had. Hopefully it last at least a few years.

    Hard drive started failing on day 15, without me realizing there was only a 14 day return period. Waste of money, next time I will buy from another store, this was a very expensive hard drive that I was using as a backup and customer support on the issue was basically passing the buck to Seagate. Never again will I buy from Best Buy for anything.
