    • Don't stand behind their product / warranty
Had this drive for about 6 month then powersupply started making noise then later failed. Went to Seagate warranty online requesting a replacement powersupply. Their reply is below: "Thank you for contacting Seagate Support. We understand that your power supply failed after emitting a high pitch noise so you are unable to use the drive. We understand you wish to get the replacement. We regret the inconvenience caused. We will certainly help you. In this case, we would like to inform you that Seagate doesn't sell accessories separately. But, you can easily purchase the replacement power supply for your external hard drive by contacting any third party vendor or any e-commerce website." This reply is total crap. This product is in warranty and it is not my problem if your company doesn't sell these separately or not. I bought a product from you I expect it (all parts of it) to work!!! Especially the powersupply that when fails, causes the entire product to be useless. My suggestion to you is to buy products from companies that stand behind the quality of their products and care about the people that keep them in business - their customers. Will not buy another Seagate product! ... show more

    • Buyer Beware: SMR Drives
Capacity: 8TB Pattern Name: HDD
First thing to note is that these are SMR drives. What is SMR? It means Shingled Magnetic Recording, basically the data on the drive is written overlapped like shingles on a roof. This means you can get more data on each disk platter, hence less platters for a given size and thus the drive is cheaper. Ok that's great right? Well the problem is this DRASTICALLY slows down the write speed for long sequential writes. It can get bogged down during large writes and become very very slow, like 10MB/s on average slow. Reads are fine it is only writing that is affected. That being said, the SMR technology does make this drive one of the best for $s/TB on the market, just don't expect amazing performance from it. You definitely get what you pay for, and for it's intended purpose as a backup drive it works fine. I can't speak for the long term reliability as I haven't had them for very long, but it has a 1 year warranty (most drives have a 2 or 3 year). The warranties are specifically calculated to balance between how cheap the manufacturer can go on the components and how many RMAs they will get when a certain expected % of the components fail. I wouldn't expect to get 5 years out of this drive, not that it's not possible but you are relatively lucky if you do. Summary: -SMR = slow writes -Only 1 year warranty = components of meh quality -For the price and purpose, not a bad drive ... show more

    • Bought in August, dead in November - Seagate says no warranty!
Capacity: 4TB Pattern Name: HDD
Wow, what a disappointment. This was purchased back in August as an external backup device for my pc. My computer is run with a Tripp-lite battery backup and the power also goes through one of my high-end surge suppressors. There has been no power fluxes or storms since I bought this. I've been working in the computer industry since the 1980s so I'm well aware of system operations and what can cause damage. No heat variations, the drive was never bumped or moved. Nothing. Today I noticed an alert on my backup program. No Seagate drive is seen in Disk Management. I tried the device on a 2nd computer in the house and it is dead. Dead dead dead. UPDATE: I went to the Seagate website and entered the drive and serial number. As mentioned earlier this was bought in August 2016 here on Amazon. The date of manufacturer on the drive is 02/27/2016. Seagate states "the warranty has expired". It powers up okay and the blue LED is illuminated. There's no dreaded clicking or clunking and you can feel the drive is spinning, but all computers do not see it. I can't even try fdisking it because no hardware is being registered by my operating systems. Seagate used to be better than this. Thank goodness I do redundant backups. ... show more

    • Junk drive, save you money
Capacity: 4TB Pattern Name: HDD
This drive is junk. It is slow, and it failed after less then 4 months of VERY occasional use. No longer powers up. There's no switch -- it is supposed to activate with power and when the USB3 is plugged in. Nothing. The housing is tinny. The power supply cable is very thin/cheap/fragile, and the connectors are sloppy. Has no value as a backup drive if it doesn't work.... I don't break stuff -- I have backup drives still going after 7 years. ... show more

This is my first try with Seagate in a long time (mostly a HGST guy). Inside this case is Seagate's Archive hard drive which OEM bare drive retails for $249. So for $179 it's a steal. (read about the Archive drive on Seagates website) USB 3.0 interface was fast. Tested empty drives formatted in HFS and ExFAT, both were a constant 180-190 MB per second read/write. After the drive was 90% full, large files peaked at 100MBps read and write, and smaller files averaged around 64MBps write, 80 read. Decent. Been running 6 of these for a week now 24/7 and have had no problems. All files have transferred and verified. And I performed a complete sector scan verify on one of them with no issues reported using SoftRAID for OSX. Cases are plastic so they're not the best for heat dissipation, but the drive itself sits in a metal bracket inside the case which helps. The case has vent holes on the bottom for some reason instead of the top, and holes on the back, but nothing on the front. I've been keeping a small fan on them as I've been copying and verifying for 24/7 for a few days. Probably not best to run 24/7 unless there's some cooling on them or they're in a very cold room. But I don't imagine most people will be running them at full tilt for days on end. I would buy these and take the drives out of their cases and put into a NAS. I'm curious how they'd perform long term. ... show more
