Seagate STHP5000400 Backup Plus 5TB External Hard Drive Portable HDD - Black USB 3.0 for PC Laptop and Mac, 1 Year MylioCreate, 2 Months Adobe CC Photography, 2-Year Rescue Service

So Ive been using this device for about a year. Then I noticed that intermittently it would not appear in Explorer. Its plugged in, why isnt it working. Well, after literally months of this, Im just now figuring out that its the cord that goes from the unit to the USP port thats causing an issue. Its not secure, kind of wiggles. I dont want to get another unit because the stupid connection doesnt work but what use is the drive if it wont boot up. Unfortunately, my availability to have tech support ended just a mere 10 days ago. Not sure what to do at this point. So, just check that your cord is really tight and secure if you buy this device. If not, return it and look for another brand.

Great external hard drive for the price. WDC never disappoints!

I love the simplicity of this device. Plug and play is the way to go, no extra power cords required.

Bought this to back up a ton of image files and so far its working perfectly. The interface I found quirky, but finally figured it out. I gave a three for tech support only because I havent used it. I doubt Ill be porting this anywhere, but, if I were, its exceedingly compact and the fact that it runs off USB power is a huge plus. Overall, great purchase at an amazing price..

Obviously there are larger storage options. While I can say that this is a great option for portability, for some reason it ejects from my pc constantly. I don’t have this issue with any of my other hard drives or equipment. However, it could just be the one that I have.

Its a very good external harddrive but its storage wasnt fully 5tb but was packing some few gbs.

Its what i was looking for, i had not enough space to set up new games on my gaming computer... with this portable i can go far on my games, this is great!!

I bought this device as my old one was almost full. While is saw many good reviews about it, I also saw some not so good ones. My old external hard drive was the same Seagate brand 500G and worked perfectly, never had a problem so I decided to buy the same brand; BIG MISTAKE!! This was troublesome from the word go. It froze my computer, which popped up a blue screen and automatically restarted. Thankfully I didnt lose any info. I then registered the product to see if it would help. Then tried to copy some old videos to it but it took sooooooo long! When it finally finished, some of the videos wouldnt start and some werent copied. I didnt waste time, I returned it immediately. Ill buy another brand.

I was about to return my new Seagate 5TB External Hard Drive, but before I did, I had called Amazon for support and they connected right away with a rep from Seagate and because I am using both a Mac and Window, they were able to help me to configure my Seagate 5TB External Hard Drive to handle both. Thank you Amazon and tank you Seagate.

A very convenient device for extremely large amounts of digital storage space. I am in fact satisfied with this product. It does what I need it to do abundantly!
