Seagate Backup Plus Hub 6 TB Desktop HDD - USB 3.0 for Windows and Mac, 3 yr Data Recovery Services, Desktop Hard Drive with 2 USB Ports, 6 Month Mylio Create and Dropbox Plan (STEL6000300)

I don't understand why it is totally acceptable by everyone that when a hard drive says it is 4TB capacity but it is actually 3.63TB. Why do we have to accept that we just lost 275GB for false marketing? This is not a 4TB HDD and must be advertised as 3.5 TB. This should be some consumer right to demand and expect what was advertised but since this is the norm by all hard drive manufacturers, consumers have accepted that they will always get less than what they were told. But why should we accept it like that? Manufacturers can quote hundreds of practical reasons why there is a loss of capacity yada yada but why can't they just advertise it for the actual capacity it has or Add additional capacity so that the consumer finally receives the capacity advertised?

Beware don't buy this hard drive, this is utter garbage hard drive, from the first the day it came I plugged it into my laptop it was making weird clicking and clattering noise even when it was not reading or writing and then comes surprise when i started copying data on this drive which was a nightmare i was merely getting 50mbps over usb3.0 and when i tried copying my 2tb data on it from my passport drive it was copying at 20mbps showing 3 days to complete and all the time it was clicking and clattering as if it was going to fail any minute, this all this is because SEAGATE HAS USED AN ARCHIVE HDD IN THIS BACKUP PLUS WHICH USES SMR TECHNOLOGY PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS DRIVE

Great product !!! Smart buy !!!I think of it as a great choice for enhancing storage and backing up important data.I found the product to be sleek, hardly taking up any table space.I could easily connect another Seagate 4 TB Backup plus, USB 3.0, external, 'powered' hard drive along with a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 500 GB, USB 3.0 hard drive, which worked flawlessly together.The basic concept is, the two USB 3.0 ports act as additional ports for USB devices expansion.So even if you connect a USB mouse, keyboard, speakers, pen drives or anything which requires a USB port, work here also. Cellphone, power bank charging as wellThe data transfer speeds entirely depend upon the type of USB port (2.0/3.0) you plug it into.Best part about USB 2.0 & 3.0 is that they are both ways compatible.I've always believed USB, as one of the best inventions and best among interfaces for IT related products.----------------------------------------------------------------------Regarding Amazon, their network of vendors and delivery services, I had ordered the product at around 9.27 pm on Nov 2, 2018, and it was delivered at 7.59 am (almost a wake up call) on Nov 3, 2018. That's like within 11 Hrs.Great work, Great Network !!!

Ordered this on Festival 2019 sale and got this for only7300.Now coming onto the HDD it's as good as it can be , the read write speeds are amazing and touches 100 MBps when copying one big file but slows down when copying multiple smaller file but this is not a fault of HDD so it's all good. LED Seagate LOGO notification light is very impressive me .Excellent i think this is my Festival gift .......

Current prices is not worth per TB. I had purchased this during sale.If you have more than 8TB or close 8TB worth of data, It's always better to buy 10 TB so that you don't have to split your data in multiple drives. This is a standard product . I had good experience with Seagate HDD in the past. The read and write speeds is more than 100MBps when both the destination and source are using USB 3.0 ofcourse.

Fastest delivery. Product received in very good condition and worked as expected. Product may not be portable as it is bulk. Almost 4x bigger than the regular HDD. The USB hub also works fine but speed is at par to 2.0 only.

I bought this for the price of 7.5 k which is definitely a great value for money.Pros:1.Value for money.2.Very good capacity of 4 TB3.Very good read and write speed ( I got 145 Mbps while transferring data into it).4.Awesome design with two USB 3.0 ports on front.Cons:1.It requires external power supply since its not a portable oneGreat product for home and office use.This won't be suitable much for travel,However it will be great for an ideal place use

Performance it very nice. Read and write speeds upto 160-170mbs. It heats up to 44c even at idle with a fan blowing under it, only one side has venting holes i am not sure how to regulate any airflow in there as the operating temps of 48-49c will kill the drive within 3-4 years. Which you cannot afford for such a large capacity drive. Deducting 2 stars for this design issue.

Seems like a good value drive, Has USB 3 support...Dissapointed that it comes with a US style PSU "plug" without any adapters for other countries... it is common place now a days to supply a power unit with a universal mounting system and several adapters.. it would not have cost much more, and for a product this expensive is a drop in the ocean

I have not used the drive yet, but I have several Seagate external hard drives and they are great.

Great to have a drive of this size to back up my 5 internal drives. It's practically the same size as my older external drives of much less capacity. Comes with free backup software and warranty.

Used as instructed and it stopped showing up on my Windows 10. I don’t know what to do. Their customer Service is very bad.

Built well, does what it says and super reliable. They're the only ones I buy. Well recommended.
