Easy to setup, easy to use. Great price.
As someone who works using large files, this was a perfect solution. 5TB is a great capacity and it's as easy as plugging it in and you're good to move data. Data transfers quickly which is exactly what I needed. Nice design - sturdy and silent and a great price.

Easy to use
Just plug it in to the USB socket and it is ready to go; no need to install software. A lot of capacity in a small drive that will fit in a pocket. I have used Seagate hard drives before and had no problems with them.
