    The person who checked me out must be new. It took him 10-12 minutes to complete a simple transaction, then he apparently did it wrong. The Adobe Premiere Elements 2020 has a code to scan in order for the product to be activated. I spent about an hour downloading and trying to activate only to only to receive a notice that I do not have a proper activation code. I used the code supplied with the software. Now I will have to make another trip to Best Buy.

    Purchased two for my NAS. Easy install. Quiet. Perfect solution to keep my computers in auto backup on a raid NAS. Recommend these drives.

    A little loud, but not extremely so

    Hard part about reviewing hard drives is that you can't speak to how long they'll last. I purchased two for a Synology NAS enclosure. They installed and set up easily, and are performing to spec. The only issue has been noise from the heads. Louder "clunking" than I normally get from drives these days. While it's not "loud loud", it could be clearly heard across the room. I ended up moving my NAS setup to another room, because it was distracting during quiet scenes while watching media. For their purpose, they are (so far) good drives, and I would buy again for this purpose. I couldn't recommend them in a machine at your desk, or an exposed media server near your TV. (and I cannot answer if they are both loud or just one due to the RAID setup)

    It's a spinny hard drive, one of four on my NAS.

    Does what it's supposed to do. Bestbuy price was good as the drives came in retail packaging not brown box like some others around same price. Overall happy with drive and BestBuy.

    Mine continue to spin it makes HDD get hot. Is it normal? I don't think so because my other HDD stops when data transfer finishes sit stop to spin. I just return it today. I always purchased Seagate because I was satisfied with it but not this one. I am getting another one , will see replacement works or not
