In Desktop External Hard Drives

This is the 12th Seagate External SDD I've acquired over the past 5 years or so, and the first of this capacity. Just as with the others - 8TB, 6TB, 5TB, and 3TB - the drive was very straightforward to configure and start migrating data to. It's great to have the extra capacity.

- Rubber feet (2 strips on each end) keep the unit stable from common quakes (such as from walking or desk shaking). - Pretty silent, for an HDD. Whirs and vibrates slightly, when in use. - Using WD Drive Utility, can program drive to sleep after a period of inactivity, reducing power consumption and prolonging drive life. - To avoid confusion w/ seller-provided box image, the drive is covered by a 3-year limited warranty from WD.

WD says a lot about this product is that I own 18 WD hard drives. So far I have not hard one die on me. I have been using WD since 1985. Other brand hard drives did not make the journey with me since 1984. If that does not give you the security you need, I do not know what will, Nxow 12 TB is a lot of room so it gives me all the room to clean my other hard drives and it is in one place. This id avery good addition to my collection of Hard drives.

Everything is high quality, from case, drive, cables, power, online manual, registration. The USB-C connection seems to work steady and well. Has 5 year warranty. The front of the case is black & the body is a textured gun metal grey.

As described and fast shipping. Newegg mail carrier threw this expensive and delicate hard drive at my house and onto the front door, no care what is inside. Its really a disaster.

There were no problems loading files. I transferred files from 3 different external drives on the Win 10 PC on this HDD, then plugged the drive in to a Win 11 laptop thru a hub.

-Smaller and more compact than expected -Minimalist design -Huge Amount of storage space -Easy setup with backup recovery software

Works great for backup and is large enough that it should last me a long time. I use Acronis and it does an incremental backup which saves space. It is USB 3 which makes it faster than the old USB 2. I have used it to backup two computers and worked like a charm. I have been using Western Digital for a long time and have only had one hard drive failure and it is my belief that it failed because the IDE cable that was sent to me with the computer case was too long. It has a three-year warranty which is another plus.

The case feels very sturdy and well-built. It does make the noise you might expect from an HDD but it's not excessive. In fact, it's just noisy enough to let you know it's working. That's a plus for me. It was also very quick at taking the first 500gb of files. Like really quick.

lots of space
