About Seagate 5TB Expansion External Desktop Hard Drive, USB 3.0
FEATURED REVIEWS
Nice Drive
Use it to backup hundreds of large photo files and, so far, it is performing well. Because it's plugged into a PC, it was truly plug-and-play. I plugged in the power cord, connected the USB cord and it worked immediately.
A Really Big Drive
I use it to back up my photo files, which keep growing both in file size and number of files. With my PC, it's true plug-and-play device in that I simply attached the power cord and USB cord, fired it up, and my computer instantly recognized it. I don't know what would happen with a Mac. One would probably have to format it first. Be that as it may, the USB 3.0 connection definitely makes for faster copying. On the whole, I like it fine.
