  • Key Specs
    • Storage Drive Type: HDD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
    • Rotational Speed: 7200 revolutions per minute (The rate at which the hard drive spins its platters. The higher the rotational speed, the faster the drive can read and write data.)
    • Interface(s): USB 3.0 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: Why does this drive, the 4TB Seagate Backup Plus FAST has a transfer rate (220mb/s) slower than the 4TB Seagate Backup Plus Slim (up to 4.8Gb/s)?

A: The 4.8 Gb/s is the maximum transfer rate of USB3, NOT the transfer rate of the drive. The 4TB Seagate Backup Plus Slim has a transfer rate of 120 MB/s, and the FAST has 220 MB/s, because the FAST has two drives in one enclosure and uses RAID 0 to spread your data across the two drives, making access faster.

Q: What is the manufacturer's warranty?

A: It has a 3 year limited Warranty.

Q: Is this compatible with Xbox One?

A: that's the one I have and I have had it going on two months and no problems out of it. You just have to let the system reformat it once you connect it! I made it my default download storage device through settings it's pretty good.

Q: Help

A: Samsung Blu Ray Players have no problem supporting this drive, I use it all the time as a network movie drive.
