    As always, Best Buy stores are easy to navigate, in person and online and they have some great sales. We have purchased our TV, our ROKU, some Hard Drives, a Printer, and even some Networking supplies in the past several years from Best Buy and everything STILL works great and they were cheaper at BB than online even. THANKS BEST BUY!

    Great Drive, knocked a star off because the USB cable is really short also the drive goes to sleep when not in use which is annoying when its connected to a PC because it takes a while to wake up

    The only issue i have with it is its an actual HDD. But then again im juat using it as a backup for stuff i dont activly use. Maybe im just spoiled to my NVME but it is loud while writing. Otherwise its a solid mass storage option.

    bought a pair for data redundancy. Windows 11 sees both drives right away and data copy speeds over USB 3 cable was pretty good...Lets see if these drives can hold up over a year or 2...

    This 18TB drive reports as running at 7200 RPM by CrystalDiskInfo and this pleases me. The same 12TB I am copying from runs at 5400 RPM.
