Pros: Extremely cheap (comparatively, per GB) HUGE storage!Works well.Not the fastest drive in the world, but used solely for backups, you might want to reconsider another drive, if you plan to run programmes from it.Cons: The NOISE!Maybe I’m doing it an injustice, because it’s sat right in front of me, by the side of my monitor, but EVERY click, whir, and chug of this drive is VERY audible.But I suppose that’s the price you pay for cheap storage.But for comparison, I also have an old (over 5 years) external Samsung drive sat right next to it, which is whisper quiet!So, Seagate, sort out your noise dampening our quality of components. Either way, it is LOUD!

I have nothing but praise for Scan, fair prices and great service. I have an 8tb external HDD, purchased in 2019. This is also by Seagate and it's terrific. So quiet you can barely tell it's powered on. I was expecting this Seagate 16tb external HDD to be much the same. Performance wise it seems similar but it's so much noisier. That crunchy noise you used to hear from a hard drive when seeking, which I'd almost forgotten, well that's back. It also has a background hum significantly louder than the old one. So yeah, I wouldn't recommend this I'm afraid.
