Review: Best External Hard Drive I've ever had! Has one or two minor annoyances - This product was exactly what I was looking for! I occasionally edit 4k video (Most of the time it's just 1080p) and needed a backup drive for my Mac pro. This drive worked incredibly well. Partitioned it, one is a backup partition and the other is a video editing partition. I've had it for 4 months now and there has never been a hiccup. 200gb of data transfered in a measly 60 min and it's even fast enough to edit off of. This drive is perfect for me in fact, I am going to eventually get a second one to do raid with. Only one complaint. It can get noisy when its sitting on a wooden desk however, it really isn't too noticeable unless you're listening for it. I would definitely recommend this to a friend. If you're questioning what drive to get, you can stop questioning, this is it. One last note: If you don't have the drive software installed and just wipped the drive as soon as you get it (Like me) the lights showing how much drive space is used don't work so, just keep that in mind. I would rather not have Seagate's crapware on my computer anyway so, this is fine.
Review: Loved it, bought three - Alright, let's start with addressing those bad reviews: I'm running Mac OSX 10.9 on a new MacBook Pro, and haven't had any problems. If you are having problems, try disabling power-nap in Energy Settings. Problem solved. Now, let's get to the good stuff. It's unbelievable that 4TB can be this affordable, and this fast: if your computer has USB3, this is crazy fast. If you're wondering, this drive does require a power outlet to work; I used to think this was a downside, but after running some speed tests, this drive is waaaaaay faster when compared to the USB-powered-only drives, even with USB3. Now I won't buy a Passport-style drive ever again. These drives have been the only thing to help make working with RED video footage doable. If you're dealing with lots of video or media files, you'll be blown away at how nice this is if you're coming from older drives And yes, it is technically slower than Thunderbolt, but in practice I've found that it's not slower by much. And Thunderbolt is still way too expensive, and not supported by many computers, so this is a clear winner. I would recommend this drive to anyone; I even bought one for a friend as a Christmas present. I do a lot of work with audio and video, and I burn through space very quickly. I'm finally getting caught up and organized thanks to these hard-drives. And I sleep easier, because backing up a computer now takes hours instead of days. After seeing how excited I was with mine, my roommate (a Windows guy) bought one and has had good luck with his as well. Seriously, I never expected to be so excited about a hard drive, but it has made my digital life so much more manageable. Do it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice size for the price. Amazon's packing leaves something to be desired, but they work well to replace if damaged in shipping.
*by S***. on December 15, 2013*

Despite the horrible packing job by the people in Amazon's distribution facility, I finally received a working drive. The first one evidently got banged around quite a bit en route, so it made LOTS of noise when I plugged it in and then every 30 seconds to a minute thereafter. If you order from Amazon, it comes in a cardboard box barely bigger than the drive itself with only one or two of those pillow cushion things shoved on one side of it to absorb the bumps and bangs. It is clearly insufficient. One corner of the drive box itself was crushed in a bit showing it had taken quite a hit at some point. Despite the shipping, I will say that, so far, this drive does a pretty good job. It spins up a little bit slowly when it wakes back up from sleep, so that can be pretty annoying while you wait on it. It goes to sleep pretty often...after about probably 5 minutes or so...and anything you do in the OS from opening Spotlight, to opening a new Finder window, to opening Dashboard makes it wake back up. There are times it wakes from sleep when I really don't need it to at all. I suspect it is because I have Spotlight indexing it as well, but if I am going to put files on it, then I want it to be indexed. It is the slowdown when trying to do anything after it has gone to sleep that made me take off a star on the device. If it came up quicker, I would put 5 stars no problem. I have it plugged into a USB 2.0 port on my late 2009 iMac, so I am obviously not seeing the USB 3.0 speeds that it is supposed to be capable of, so I cannot comment on its speed from that standpoint. Otherwise, it appears to run at full 2.0 speeds. I wish the replacement modules for the base weren't $50. I really would like to swap this USB 3.0 one to a Firewire 800, but if it is going to cost $50, then I most definitely will not be doing it. That is just stupid expensive. There are indicator lights on the base of the drive which shows you how full it is. They can be turned off via the software that comes with the drive. There is no way to adjust how much time passes before the drive spins down for sleep mode. I wish there was. Anyway, overall, I would say that this drive works pretty well. I would like to see the price drop by quite a bit, but that will take time. You don't have to do anything at all to configure it for a Mac. It just works straight out of the box when you plug it in. I had it out and had Time Machine sync with it within about 5 minutes I would say. The capacity reported by finder is 4TB. Disk Utility says total capacity is 4 TB (4,000,787,025,920 Bytes). I would say it is a good drive. It is very big and, knock on wood, appears to be reliable so far.
