Seagate Barracuda Fast SSD 1TB External Solid State Drive Portable – USB-C USB 3.0 for PC, Mac, Xbox & PS4-3-Year Rescue Service (STJM1000400)

I've always sworn by Seagate hard drives and my first Seagate SSD is proving perfect too. Great build quality and stylish weighing practically nothing. Unlike some competitors it has a useful activity LED. A major factor is the metal plate on the top which acts as a heat radiator helping keep speeds up and unit lifespan long. Many competitors are completely surrounded in plastic or rubber and boil to the touch with huge transfers. Highly recommended.

Wow in good way. Excellent item

Very Good

Good

Great if you are backing up a bunch of file that are small on size like 2gb each file . But if your files are huge like 10gb each transfer speed won't be that great . Either way it works well

Like it

Love it

Bought this SSD drive on April 2021 and in September 2021 . It is dead PS nor Windows 10 can see the drive. I hope there is some warranty on it .

Tengo un iMac de 2017 con HDD; vi en internet que podía instalarse MacOS en un SSD externo sin necesidad de abrirla (pues aún estaba en garantía), en su momento compré un SSD ADATA el cual no llegó ni al año de duración. Me asesoré con un profesional de la computación y me comentó que esta marca era de lo mejor en el mercado. ¿A favor? incluye un USB-C a USB-C y USB-C a USB-A; al principio me costó un poco conectar el USB-C al puerto USB-C del iMac pero fue cuestión de ejercer un poco más de presión y quedó sin problemas. Mi computadora corre de maravilla y no he tenido problemas como con ADATA. Cuesta un poco más que otras opciones, pero vale la pena.

Very good quality

My 2-Tb Apple Time Machine drive filled up, and rather than go through the hassle of clearing old backups, I just got this instead. It is FANTASTIC for that purpose. Super-fast and hardly noticeable. The green light is cool, and I like it, but honestly is does it's job "in the background" so I tend to not even notice it. I hadn't noticed any heat issues until the review offered that for rate features. Not noticing any heat really. I shut my Mac down entirely each night, so it isn't on 24/7.I was so happy with this that I decided to use it for my SQL Server machine. I have about 8 instances of SQL data servers on one machine, each with numerous databases, and I make daily (7 day rotation) and weekly backups (up to 1 year). On one drive, it was filling things up too much. So I got this as a second external SSD, and it's now the weekly backups for all instances and databases. Works great! Hardly noticeable. And I DID pull a backup for a client from 2 weeks ago and it restored really fast. Like my Mac, this Windows 2019 Server shuts down entirely each night (after backups), so it's not on 24/7. Haven't had any issues.For the price, this drive is fantastic. If it weren't for how quickly technology improves, I'd probably buy a couple of more and stick them in the closet until needed. Great storage solution!

Me gustó su diseño, su tamaño y que es extremadamente ligero. Además es bastante rápido traspasar archivos pesado, del orden de GB y trae dos cables que se adaptan a todos los dispositivos modernos. Desgraciadamente no he podido encontrar una funda que le venga bien para protegerlo.

I was looking for a back up drive as my old HDD had just failed (7 years old). This fits the bill nicely. The drive is small and light weight and transfer times seem fast compared to the HDD I used to own.Currently SSD's are expensive per GB compared to HDD but well worth it as they are not prone to mechanical failure. Seagate are a well known make which is why I chose them after some research. I have used this drive on a windows based machine and a Linux based machine with no issues at all and it's a great way to transfer large files between the two.
