    Best for storing data when u dont access the data in the drive more often. High storage but slower transfer rate when u compare with an ssd

    Thought that it would contain the data backup software. It did not. Gave it to my grandson. I retired from Seagate. Should have stuck with them. Which I did also buy from Best Buy
