Excellent reliable product. Bought two 6TB Seagate HDD before both eventually failed while under warranty. Seagate actually replaced them both with a re-furbished models. Those drives also failed after the original warranty expired. I was not happy. I am now switched completely to Toshiba HDD. No drives failure so far and it is more quiet than the Seagate drives. Very happy with the purchase. I avoid Seagate like a plague now.
