Seagate Expansion Plus 8TB Desktop Hard Drive
Excellent Hard Drive, Great for Backup
RockingDodger, 55 - 64, Ilkeston
Does the job
I wanted a large hard drive to back up photos so as not to rely on the cloud. This is high capacity and a bit chunky in size but does what I need at an affordable price.
Mak, 35 - 44, London
Great for backing up photos
I bought the 8tb version and it offers plenty of storage for family photos and videos. Very happy with the purchase and should keep me going for a few years.

Good robust
It does the job that we needed it for
Pola, 45 - 54, Derry
Fast and good price for the storage
It was faster writing to it than a couple of portable hard drives I have been using. Needs the external power supply and is bigger and heavier, as expected. But I'm using it to backup the portable drives I have, as one of them failed recently. It's pretty quiet, so would probably be useful to someone who wanted extra permanent storage on their PC without having to fit an internal disk.
Ian898, 55 - 64, East midlands
Solid and dependable
Needed a larger drive to enable a full system backup and this fits the bill. It's as fast and quiet as you could expect without going for a solid state drive. The only negative I could mention is that it is probably not worth (in my opinion anyway) the additional £10 for the Plus part beyond the standard Seagate Expansion drive.
Dunderheid, 45 - 54, Edinburgh
Very poor product
Just the 3rd time I backed up some data onto the drive it failed. Then comes the worry that when you return the product, will the sensitive data will be properly deleted? A complete waste of time and effort.

Perfect!
Does everything it needs to.
JoeyFilms, 35 - 44, Shrewsbury
Fast and efficient for my purposes.
Bought this to use with my Plex media server. Does the job perfectly. Lightning fast file copying and no issues loading anything remotely. Good value for money
