    • Fit my needs perfectly!
Style: Desktop HDD Capacity: 8TB
I am reviewing the 8000 GB (8 TB) Desktop. Okay, I knew going in that this was a "shingled" drive. But, I needed it for archival storage, so I figured it would work and I was right. I have a home network and a home server. I nedded to expand the capacity of that server. This is my experience. The drive arrived on schedule. It was easy to unbox and I liked the look, feel and solid weight of it. 30 minutes after unboxing it was connected to my server. It took only few minutes to reformat it for linux. (Who would want to run a server on anything else?) After formatting I got down to work. Let me say here that it runs only slightly warm, never hot. It does make a sound, but is quiet and doesn't bother me at all. It comes with it's own power so my computer doesn't have to supply it. Anyway, the first thing that had to happen was moving about 4 TB of files onto it. I started the copy and went away. It's a shingled drive so I knew it would take a while. And it did :) The next day I set up the Samba share, let Jellyfin scan it, and I was in business. It has now been running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for tw-months. It performs beautifully. No problems and no issues. It is a perfect archival drive. It's performance is way better than needed for it's purpose. I really like this drive and it is approaching 6.5 TB, so I will need to get another one soon. Can't think of any reason not to get another one of these. So far I am VERY satisfied with this purchase. One thing I wanted to know going it was how long it might last running 24/7. Never could get an answer. But, so far, better than good! ... show more

    • Failed on me!!!
Style: Desktop HDD Capacity: 16TB
Literally cannot sleep because of anxiety the drive isn’t working anymore. I have all my files on it. I tried & google every solution possible. What a nightmare. I would spend the extra money on Sandisk and not buy seagate ever again! I wanted to give it a try to save $$$ but this is what I get now. SOOOO DISAPPOINTING ... show more

    • Excellent Hard Drive
Style: Desktop HDD Capacity: 8TB
I purchased this hard drive on Feb 23, 2020 and it is still purring along,Not once have I ever had a boot problem with it, 8tb is a good amount of space and as you can see the longevity is very good as my first one is still in top notch condition I will be purchasing another for additional backup

    • Works well
Style: Desktop HDD Capacity: 14TB
Seagate Expansion 14TB External Hard Drive HDD is a decent hard drive. I have been using it as a file repository, where files are stored and recalled as needed. That being said, once files have been copied to the drive, they are not overwritten or modified. I mention that because for my use case, despite the drive being filled with over 10TB of data, it is not heavily used. The drive can be a bit noisy at times. I would HIGHLY recommend not trying to use this drive on an USB hub. I would also recommend not connecting many other USB devices while using this drive, as doing so could cause unwanted disconnects. Other buyers have reported issues with this drive. I would say that you may want to consider alternatives if you are looking for heavier use than simply storing files that won't be modified. ... show more

    • Extra Space - Perfect for backups
Style: Desktop HDD Capacity: 16TB
After noticing that the drives that had failed me most often were by other manufacturers, I have relied on Seagate devices to store my precious data. So, when I needed more space to back up my primary drives, getting a new Seagate external memory was a no brainer. At 16T it easily backs up the primary drives for photos and data with lots of room to grow. I've never had to use their "data recovery" but always nice to know it is there if needed. Performance has been as expected from USB 3.0 speed. The only slowdown appears to be the need to transfer the older data via my computer. For power, it came with several additional places that can be used to fit power outlets in other countries. - unnecessary for me, and I really don't plan to travel with this drive. Performance has been very quiet, being literally an arm's length away, I don't hear it operating. Even while writing, data retrieval has been quick and efficient. Only real negative was that I was expecting far quicker delivery being a Prime member as well as this being a Prime day purchase. Instead, I got several email messages saying the dates had been delayed, advanced, moved back again, and even when finally arrived came the next day. Fortunately, I wasn't in a hurry - this time. Overall, price is good. (edited - Good Grief! has the price increased since I was looking at this both before and after purchase, that deal I took advantage of is now long gone.) Seagate has a proven track record for reliability, and I expect to be using it for a very long time. ... show more

    • Funny noises and slowly died from day one
Style: Desktop HDD Capacity: 14TB
I bought this drive to hopefully rid me of one of my two, 8 tb hard drives. At the very least free up some space. The moment I got it it was making some distinctly but alternatingly different sounds that did not sound like a hard drive should? Anyone familiar with the old Maxtor grinding noises will know what I mean. At first I thought that is just how this drive must sound. As someone that has been building computers since the 90's I'm aware technology changes and sometimes in unexpected ways. But as I transferred files the drive not only got slower but it got louder. It took me five to six times longer to get all my files off the drive and back onto my other drives before it died completely. I only had the drive for a week and not only did the noises (I can only equate to taking a record needle and tapping on a record that wasn't spinning) get stranger and louder but the drive took longer to transfer files and got more and more erratic coming out of sleep mode. I love both Western Digital and Seagate but in this case I am willing to say I just got a bad one as this is more than possible. I personally have not checked on the actual technology that is in this drive but until I do I had to go with a reliable drive I know the technology in better. I would advise if you get one that takes a long time to come out of sleep mode and makes strange taping scratching noises speraticly, send it back for a new one. I won't blame Seagate for this completely I just know I got a bad one out of the box. ... show more
