Seagate Expansion 22TB External Hard Drive HDD - USB 3.0, with Rescue Data Recovery Services (STKP22000400)

22TBとありますが、実質は20TB使用可能でした。

Just got the HD today. It is doing what it's supposed to do. The speed is fast, but a bit of rumbling when in use. Nothing too major, just put it on a piece of cloth and it should absorb some noise. The LED light is bright (from the inside), so if you have the HD in your bedroom, it might disturb your sleep. I got a 22TB HD at about $400 after tax. So it was about $18CAD per TB, pretty inexpensive compared to what I've bought before, 8TB for $200. Now I don't have to worry about insufficient storage for my photos (JPG and RAW).

Llegó antes de la fecha. Es más pesado y ancho que el modelo anterior probablemente por la capacidad en terabytes. Espero que la durabilidad vaya acorde.

I read one article that suggested a 7.3% failure rate within three years for Seagate Expansion drives. Well then lucky me - ordered 2 and one was a brick 24 hours later. Here's the problem. By that time I had already copied 4-5 TB of confidential project data to the drive - the drive that now just clicks and will no longer mount. So .. there is every buyers dilemma with a drive that dies - the sellers expect you to either send back drives with platters full of data or eat the costs and keep the dead ones. The ethical thing to do would be to send a replacement drive and let the user destroy the dead drive - i would have been happy to send pics after introducing the drive to a sledgehammer. Seagate however wanted me to send some parts to satisfy their certificate of destruction process but would provide no documentation as to what parts they needed to satisfy their COD nor any timeframe for replacement - can't make this up. Further, to start the Seagate COD process you have to agree to accept a used drive as a replacement - as someone that paid for a new drive that died within 24 hours you might imagine my reply to that requirement.Update Apr28/26 - After some considerable back and forth between seller and Seagate the seller stepped up and took responsibility and replaced the dead drive. Translation - the seller provided better customer service than the manufacturer was willing to provide. Fair. Thank you.Takeaway - buy from this seller - but stay well away from Seagate.

Stopped working after 2 months. Seagate has over the years been reliable and I run there drives in my server.. However for this to fail after 2 months and for me to lose all my data is just catastrophic. Turns on makes horrible noises and doesn't show up on the computer anymore. Decided to remove it from enclosure voiding the warranty but possibly being able to save my data but it is definitely something failed inside the drive. Seems from reviews that others have had the exact same issue so I would stay away from this product. Even if I did warranty it I could never trust it again. Years of data lost. :(
