    I love this hard drive because it’s lightweight. It looks sleek. It’s all black and you cannot hear it running when it’s plugged in.

    WORKS SO FAR. EASY TO SET UP. I ALWAYS RECOMMEND A HARDRIVE MONITOR IN THE CASE THE HARDRIVE SHOWS SIGNS OF FAILING. I ALWAYS CLONE MY OS HARDRIVE EVERY 24 HR BY THE APP SCHEDULE. THE CLONING APP COST NOTHING COMPARED TO BEING HACKED OR BEING TAKEN OVER BY A IDOIT RANSOME ATTAK I JUST GO TO MY 2ND CONED HARDRIVE SINCE IS NOT MINFECTED BY THE RANSOMEWAERE

    I don't want to give this product a bad rating for performance or any other reason because I did not use it. I returned it because I wanted an SSD external drive rather than an HDD external drive. Simple choice that I overlooked before the purchase.

    My employee's harddrive was maxxed out - Seagate is the only authorized external HD at my company and the 5TB is perfect for the expansion, that is required for my coder.
