Q: QuestionIs this really 18 gigabytes? I'm hearing stories that it's actually 14 gigabytes.
Asked by Slick.
- A:Answer It has to be smaller than 18 TB. And the bigger the hard drive... the bigger the difference between the size of the drive and useable space. This drive has 16.3 TB of usable space.

Q: QuestionHow are all these new models sold out yet have no reviews? Have there even been any purchases of these yet? When are they coming back in stock?
Asked by FamilyGuy0395.
- A:Answer Best Buy has a bad habit of listing items that aren't for sale yet, and an even worse habit of listing items that have no concrete release date. That is the case with these drives - They are sold out because they aren't out yet, and we don't know exactly when they'll be out (but should be soon.)

Q: QuestionCan this backup hard drive be hooked up to two computers at the same time on the same network?
Asked by SpartyGirl.
- A:Answer I am assuming an external drive is being discussed. (I only see the question, not what drive the question is for.) What I do is connect it via USB3 to one PC. Then share the drive (either the entire drive, or individual directories) on that PC. Then it can be seen by other PCs on the LAN. (Assuming Network in Explorer is showing the share, not a given in Windows 10. Might be forced to manually use Map network drive.) I use Macrium Reflect Free to backup my PCs. I point the backup destination to a directory on the shared drive (\\shared directory name). Macrium Free cannot "browse" to a network location, so I copy that location and paste it into a text file on the pen drive I use to boot Macrium. Then I copy/paste from the text file (instead of typing it in) when starting the backup. Obviously both PCs (the one being backed up and the one where the backup drive is connected) need to be running. If you mean physically connecting the drive via USB to two computers at the same time, via USB hub or otherwise, not possible. I wanted to do something similar with a non-disk device (A/V mixer) and learned it wasn't possible. Another option is a NAS (Network Attached Storage). People "shuck" external drives to put into a NAS. I don't shuck and don't own a NAS, but I think some also have USB3 ports on them. I don't know how that works exactly. Then the backup destination would be the NAS on the LAN without needing a second PC.

Q: QuestionCan someone please confirm the dimensions and weight? The specifications mention 6.87” x 2” and only weighing a little more than 2 oz. That would make this more like a portable SSD drive and not a fixed one to remain on my desk. Thanks!

Q: QuestionCan this device connect to a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ smartphone to offer additional storage?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer It cant connect directly. But i suppose if you use it to back up older files/photos/videos, you could make room for new stuff on your phone. But this isnt a portable drive. It plugs into wall for power.
Answered by Blaster
Q: QuestionCan this hard drive be set on it's side...instead of it standing upright... Thanks in advance,,,
Asked by Robin.
- A:Answer Yes it can. Vertical or horizontal, it doesn’t matter, but if you do lay it on it’s side you should get some stick on rubber feet/pads to minimize vibration and noise. And never move a drive while it’s in use, you can damage the drive and lose data.
