    The 4TB storage in a portable HDD form-factor at an affordable price is an excellent product. I recommend it.

    I've been able to back up 4 different computers to this drive. Though this drive seems to be better designed, of course, for Windows computers, a simple reformat prepares it for use with a Mac. It's quiet, doesn't run too hot, and is relatively responsive. It could use better Mac software though.

    It works well and I haven't had any issues with corruption. Was a great price for the storage amount, especially compared to other hard drives. I previously had a Toshiba external hard drive but it was less sturdy than this one.

    Seagate is the best when it comes to storage. I got this on sale over the Christmas holiday season so the value is absolutely incredible. I actually use this one as an external hard drive for my PS4 and it works perfectly. 4TB of storage is just amazing.

    This Seagate 4TB expansion hard drive is light weight, fast and quiet. I take it everywhere! I use it with my 2016 Apple MBP, configuring to MAC was simple and is very easy to use. Get yourself one!

    Easy to use. Plug and Play. The box doesn't come with instructions which at first frustrated me, but once I plugged in the external hard drive, it automatically created it's own drive (D:) and downloading files was easy.

    Buying this is better and cheaper than paying Dropbox to store my photos! I have lots of photos and documents on there and plenty of room for more - which is the best part!
