## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Great external HDD - After reading a lot of reviews that said it's noisy and slow I initially tried to cancel my order but missed the cancellation point, anyway I decided to keep it as it was a Prime day special offer, I haven't suffered any of the woes I read about in negative reviews and so far it works without fault it is actually very quiet in comparison with many other USB external drives I have used some of which I still own, to the speed I'm getting about 160MB/s transfer speed over USB 3.0 which I think is quite reasonable for an 8TB 3.5" 54 RPM HDD, I bought it to backup my film & TV series from existing HDD drives just in case one of them fails and I'm really glad I bought it when I did as I only paid £168.99 it's now selling for £240.65 so a saving of £71.66. Cost aside it's really useful backup solution and has a small footprint my only criticism is it doesn't have an on/off power switch so you'll have to unplug it
Review: The ultimate external HDD for making backups - Works great and is very easy to set up. Quite noisy and you can feel the ticks within my desk. You have to use the enclosed PSU (not a generic 12v HDD PSU) because it uses a lot more power than other HDD's, but of course, 26TB means you can give away all those old units! The PSU comes with a variety of pin adaptors for every plug on the planet, including EU, UK, Oz and US. I have purchased this purely to backup my main file server and store it off site. To initially copy 21TB took about 30 hours and once initially copied, the weekly update takes about 15 mins, so quite nifty and perfect for my application. I personally, would not use this as a permanently connected drive, its a bit too big, noisy and clunky (and of course 26TB is way beyond a USB connection!), a built in drive is better for speed, power, ventilation, vibration proofing etc. and this drive is probably the ultimate for being able to transport that data in a safe secure manner. You will need something with lots of memory to connect to it because chances are that 26TB of data will probably be over a million files! Make sure windows is set to 'Not indexed' and your anti virus scanner is configured to 'not check' when connected because something this large in capacity takes hours not minutes (and my PC is 5.6 Ghz, 32G RAM so no slouch!)

## Features

- Easy-to-use desktop hard drive—simply plug in the power adapter and USB cable
- Fast file transfers with USB 3.0
- Drag-and-drop file saving right out of the box
- Automatic recognition of Windows and Mac computers for simple setup (Reformatting required for use with Time Machine)
- Enjoy peace of mind with the included limited warranty and Rescue Data Recovery Services

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plenty of storage but you may need an isolation pad.
*by C***N on 3 December 2025*

Plenty of storage but a bit slow to respond. Doesn't take up to much desk real estate but I had to put it on a shelf to prevent it from adding to the hum. Not as solidly made as my old 2TB Seagate, let's hope it's as durable.
