Absolute piece of JUNK!

published

For years I have recommended Seagate drives and until recently they have always been reliable. Because I now make use of a laptop far more than in the past I needed portable drives and got s 2TB and a 4TB. I have had NOTHING BUT TROUBLE with both of them. The 2TB is out of warranty so when I (yet again) got the 'drive not ready' message I lost my temper and smashed the damn thing into little pieces. The 4TB was already been swapped once while in warranty and all I can say is stay away from this worse than useless line of HDDs. I rely on external HDDs for backups but how can you rely on drives that constantly fail? ABSOLUTE JUNK!

Purchased at The Good Guys.

everything works

published

Purchased a few years ago and is still working, I only plug it every now and then. It is not the fastest option to use on daily basis but since I use it for backup purposes, it doesn't give any problem. Pros: slim nice design, USB 3, for some reason it is light (lighter than my other HDD). Cons: none

Didn't even work.

published

Bought this to use with my PS4 and decided to test it on my PC first. It doesn't show up in file explorer and just makes a repetitive beeping noise every few seconds. This doesn't even deserve one star. When you pay $98 for an external hard drive, you expect it to work. Well, don't expect this one to work if you buy it.

Fixed the problem very well

published

I bought a 2tb product of Seagate brand and stopped working short after. I was very angry as on that device I had lots of importants file and I did no want to lose averything.
I called their customer service and the handled the issue very well. The product was sent to Holland for repair and returned in a few weeks (as scheduled), They managed to retrieve all the data on the same device plus they sent me a 4TB device for free. Honestly, well done

Works nicely. Great unit

published

Like this sleek unit very much. It transfers data smoothly and quickly. Have had no hiccups yet. I always use the proper exit strategy suggested by the manufacturer in the instruction brochure prior to removing it from my Laptop.

I can say I am very pleased with my data storage device bought from Officeworks in East Victoria Park.

Perfect. Very happy with purchase.

published

Excellent product. The design is slim, lightweight and functional. I haven't had a single problem with mine. I have the 2TB and it still has so much space on it. It's loaded with movies, tv shows, music and documents. i've had it for over a year now and it works like brand new. Always opens files quickly and exports / imports even faster. Highly recommend this product.

Easily portable

published

Compact, portable and compatible with my Apple MacBook Pro. Great addition to store the sound files from recording as it is 2TB but small enough to fit into a carry pocket to keep it safe. Fast and easy to use. I love that I don't need a power source for it and it also comes with a nice warranty.

Good HDD no problems so far

published

I've been using the HDD for about 2 months, its really compact and can slip into your pocket. I mainly use it as a backup for my travel photos. The speed is fairly fast. With these portable HDD drives its best to have at least 2 and backup each other.

Great little portable hard drive

published

Bought this almost a year ago now.

It's a great small portable hard drive, its fast and has so much storage for all my files.

Easy to carry around, have bought a case that allows me to carry it around with protection.

Haven't had any issues with mine at all.
