## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: High quality outer with a lot of capacity for the price! - OK so I have seen other reviews about failures etc. but hey....things fail...that's why we back up in the first place isn't it (and I never trust just one backup for precious files)?? Anyway, I already have two 2TB portable Seagate expansion drives for my movie and TV collection, and for my backups. However, an ever increasing movie and TV collection meant I needed even more capacity. I decided on this one purely because of the price point, the capacity, and the fact it was a Seagate! Straight out of the box it feels like quality. It is nicely heavy and comes with a decent length Mains adaptor and USB 3.0 cable (if you are new to USB 3.0 be aware that a normal USB cable does not have the same fitting at the equipment end as a USB 3.0 cable). So what did I do? I put the drive on my desk behind my PC. I connected the drive via the USB cable to a vacant USB3.0 port (the blue ones) on the back of my PC (I would say NEVER plug a backup HDD in to a HUB....always use a dedicated direct socket). And I plugged it in. Within a couple of seconds a window popped up showing that the drive is active. And that's it really! I leave it plugged into the mains since it automatically goes to sleep with the PC. Noise? well, I happen to like hearing that positive little whirring sound that lets you know something is happening when I copy a file to a backup (at other times it is, as far as I can tell, silent....or at least quieter than the whisper of my PC fan). If you have the hearing of a Fenec Fox and get annoyed by the sound of a cockroach running across a carpet 10 feet away then maybe this drive is too noisy....! It is backwards compatible to USB 2.0 if you need it to connect via that method but bear in mind that USB 3.0 is some large number of times faster than USB 2.0! Transfer times?? Well, as we all know, different file types take different times to copy and big files copy at a much faster rate than lots of small files. I have seen 130MBps during copying a large archive of video files from my PC (i5 processor) to it, but copying my custom icons file (yeah I am a movie geek and the folder icons just have to portray the movies they contain ;-)) of hundreds of files less than 1MB each managed only around 20MBps. I don't know what else to tell you really.... I will watch out for questions and try to answer if I can. I will say that I paid 74 quid for this and the same drive was 119 elsewhere online! Yeah it could fail next week...or never...but no backup is perfect which is why you should have at least 2 backups of all of your precious files as well as your in-use version on your PC.....don't be like me and learn the hard way by losing 2 years worth of irreplaceable family pictures and videos!!!!
Review: Seagate 3 TB Expansion USB 3.0 (bought in 2015) - In the situation that i use this (always plugged in to my xbox one as an external hard drive rather than constantly being moved as a portable hard drive) this has been an excellent storage device that was very easy to set up and has never given me any problems. *Warning* My PERSONAL opinion upon inspecting the sockets and design of this product is that they are prone to wearing out and breaking very quickly if the device is plugged and unplugged alot (ie if it's being used as a portable HDD rather than a permanent expansion) so be forewarned that it's really not suited to the role of "portable" **EDIT** it's now 2022 and i've been using the same external drive daily since 2015 , the reason for the edit is that i think it's finally dying as i've had a couple of disk write errors and several files lost due to corruption. Literally could not have asked more from this equipment and i'll be looking to get whatever the current version is to continue on my external HDD needs. You have my sympathies if you've had a bad experience with this line of external/portable HDDs but in my experience the reliability has been top notch

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how noisy is this harddrive if it needs to be on 24/7?**
A: I don’t know what the others are on about I have 3 of these and all next to one another and it’s absolute rubbish that they make “so much noise”, in fact they are quite the opposite. Yes you get the typical “spinning” noise when the hard drive is in use but nothing too disturbing like the sound of pots and pans being bashed about. Literally some people over exaggerate noise like wth I mean you must have one dodgy hard drive the way you make it out to be when all 3 of mine are quieter than a sleeping hamster. Hope that helps solve your question.

**Q: Can this be used on both PC and Mac?**
A: I would recommend exFAT over FAT32 or NTFS; while NTFS can be written to on OS X it has never been well supported, and FAT32 has significant limitations. Even ExFAT isn't ideal, but it can handle bigger files, copy more efficiently and is supported on Mac, Linux and Windows as standard. You can format drives as ExFat in OS X's Disk Utility.

**Q: Does this product come with a USB cable, or do you have to buy the cable separately?**
A: Yes it comes with the usb cable

**Q: Does it work for Mac laptop owners?**
A: Out of the box it won't but if u format it will read.How to Erase an internal or external drive that is 500 GB or larger and has already been setup with NTFSOpen the Disk Utility.Select the drive.Click Partition.Under Volume Scheme, choose 1 Partition.Choose Options.Choose Apple Partition Map.Click OK.Click Apply.Click the Partition button.The drive will Erase. When it completes, the drive will mount on the Desktop.Takes less than 30 seconds. Job done.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product so far, I recommend. (3TB Version)
*by J***. on 13 July 2016*

This drive came a lot faster than expected, 2 days before its estimated arrival. So far, had it a few days, it's great. Using it primarily as an Xbox One storage upgrade and it's working like a charm, can practically install my whole game library on this thing with reasonable space left over. It's loading everything perfectly fine, and takes little time to move things from the internal to this drive. I'm not sure if it's made a difference in writing/loading times, I realise there are very detailed and specific writing times which can only be millisecond differences to other drives, which, in my opinion, doesn't matter. As long as it loads everything without problems, which it does, I'm not bothered about 'faster' writing/loading times. Physically, it's a really nice shape, super subtle and clean looking, the fact that it requires mains power is completely fine with me, but may not be with others. My only criticism so far is if it's placed on some kind of wood surface, especially something like a TV stand, you can hear the humming coming from it, although this is EASILY solvable by putting something underneath it to stop the sound completely. Now it's completely quiet. Overall, great product so far, I'm loving it. Definitely worth the price, would recommend.
