The drives are very low quality. I may be one of the many customers who is having the same issue as most of the customers have of this drive. The drive worked only for a few months then it started making a click sound and drive suddenly becomes unresponsive. The drive stops reading and writing and the head is constantly making the click sound. The drive finally gave blue screen error and then a black screen appeared S. M. A. R. T. status is bad backup and replace.I gave the drive to seagate warranty but they said data recovery is not covered so lost all data and i did the RMA to seagate and returned their product and after a week they gave me a refurbished drive note that this is not a new drive but a used and repaired drive which is fit for normal use that drive was given to me as replacement which i received and installed in my pc and used it for a week and guess what happened! This drive also malfunctioned the same way as the original drive malfunctioned that too in a week only. Imagine the shock and pain you have to go through to see the drive that seagate dispatches to you after certifying it as refurbished product that too is also not reliable.Now i am currently sending this refurbished drive also for RMA to seagate warranty service becauae this also is not working. Can you believe it. The pain and stress you have to go through while backing up and restoring data twice can not be said in words. Also there is no data recovery warranty so rely on your god and luck for whatever portion of data you can backup cause if drive goes completely malfunctioned then forget whatever data you have to get back. The memories of your life that you want to cherish is all gone. All because seagate has exported really low quality products which does not seem to pass any reliability test of any type and just dumped them all to india.Very bitter experience from seagate. Never buying any storage media or any electronic product from this company.Also the packaging that was done by AMAZON and APPARIO clearly showed their ignorance regarding how a product sensitive like hard drive shoud be packed and given.The packaging was of very inferior quality and AMAZON really does not know how handle logistics of sensitive products.Never buying any seagate product for me and probably never order any eletronics good from amazon anymore. 🙅🙅🙅😠😠😠🙅🙅🙅

Product is quite good, running well over 2 years now

I bought it in 2020, now the hard disk is corrupted in 2025 jan with 9% health remaining. now let me spend 20-40k to recover data. always change your hdd once in 2-3 year

Waste of money.Non working drive.
