Seagate Ultra Touch HDD 4TB External Hard Drive - 15mm, Pebble Grey, Post-Consumer Recycled Material, 6mo Dropbox and Mylio, Rescue Services (STMA4000400)

I very sorry I bought this. It is far from plug and play as evidenced by my many ours with tech support.

I needed to clear up some space on my MacBooks hard drive so I decided to grab an external drive that had USB-C. The first thing I noticed was the adapter from USB to USB-C just didnt fit snug into the port and overall just didnt seem to be good quality. Once plugged in the drive showed up however it would make my computer hang and the drive continued beeping. Attempting to reformat the drive also didnt work and I called it a lost cause. Much happier spending more and getting an SSD drive with USB-C.

Producto calificado, de calidad

I have had to go to snapshot only function to make it trustworthy. The software for the device often fails to recognize the computer when I plug it back in, the device itself had to be scanned and repaired, and it fails to properly update files when I activate it. Ive had other Seagate Drives that were OK. Im sure my experience isnt average for the device. I have about 35 years experience including college training in computers, software, and have continuously used a wide variety of programs/apps on multiple higher end computers and laptops. Some of my files are highly proprietary, valuable, and not reproducible other than from backup, so I need a fully dependable backup systems. Of course, I do multiple backups periodically, one other is an automatic system which to date, has been flawless. For me, this device is my least favorite ever. I do have a much earlier La Cie (ca 2005), same company, which has been great and still functions as a tertiary file cabinet.

Not bad. I like the security feature. Occasionally it says the memory is full and I have to unplug and replug to fix it. I don’t have to do this with another cheaper drive I have. I’m guessing it’s a glitch related to the application toolkit.

Got this for my son to use as an external storage for his PlayStation 4. Works like a champ. Had for a year now and hasnt had any problems. Ive always liked the reliability of Seagate drives

I was trying to back up my Mac onto this and when it finally worked it did its job, but you have to be patient with it. In order to use it, I had to completely wipe everything from it with the highest setting (which took a good 10 hours for some reason), but then it seems to work well.

super cute and easy to use. i had a hell of a time finding a hard drive with a usb-c port, and this one did not disappoint

This is lightweight, compact and easy to use. But the way the USB cord plugs into the unit isnt stable. When its plugged into my laptop I have to be careful because jiggling the cord or knocking the drive can cause the cord to pull out of the drive.

We bought this to back up our photos. It is lightweight, portable, comes with a USB-C and USB connector (good for new computers/iPads), and functioned just as desired. I am highly satisfied with this purchase! I would recommend you buying this harddrive for any backing up needs you might have!
