    Works well for storing pictures and docs, but little slower than expected. But comes in handy when my phone starts getting laggy because my photos take up like 40gb worth of space -_-

    it has 1.8TB total. I stored my photos and videos from phone. easy to use, not slow when I transfer files. the only thing that I notice is when I deleted files, it does delete permanently without being asked “are you sure you want to delete it permanently”. but I guess that’s what most of hard drive now, unlike my old seagate hard drive that would pop up the question before deleting it unless I would click “never ask again”

    Overall this product served its person of backing up my stuff on my computer. It was easy to set up, along the recovery service plan does confuse me as it is not clearly stated. The device has a 1-year warranty after registering. It came with 1.7 TB of room when I plugged it in. I haven't tried it with any game console.

    Seagate provides secure storage for your data!

    Excellent. With Seagate, your Data is in YOUR control. When you back up to "The Cloud", you are storing your information, files, photos, videos, etc. on someone else's server. It is a documented fact that Big Tech scans, reads, and may even copy your Data. Having it on this convenient Seagate drive is so much more secure. Keep it in your file cabinet, or better yet in a safe. When your computer's hard drive crashes, you take comfort knowing that everything is safely backed up on your Seagate. Or when your computer starts warning you, "Drive is approaching capacity", that's no problem, just transfer the excess onto your Seagate.

    Awesome product as you would expect from Seagate. Easy to use and super fast data transfer. Super fast and easy transaction. Purchased it late afternoon and before I knew it, it was already delivered right at my door step the following day. The delivery was so fast that the email notification came an hour after I picked it up from my door step. Awesome product too!
