Seagate Ultra Touch HDD 4TB, External HDD, Pebble Grey, Post-Consumer Recycled material, USB-C compatibility with PC, Mac & Chromebook, Data Rescue Services (STMA4000400)

I bought this as my previous (seagate) harddrive was used for my old Windows laptop and therefore not compatible with my Macbook. This one particularly appealed to me for the appearance (which is also made from recycled materials, ticking off another positive for it!) and it's compatibility. So far, it's been working great and transfers are very fast. It heats up a little bit if I'm using it for a while but I'm sure that's pretty normal for any HDD. This comes with a USB-C cable straight out of the box so it's compatible with any Macbooks with no USB 2.0/3.0 ports. While slightly expensive, it works well out of the box and is a great option for Mac users, providing a good amount of storage for the price!

Works great, no issues, no lag or slowness and houses all my games nicely

I got this drive and discovered it only has a USB-C to C cable with it. I dont have this on my desktop at all. No biggie i have plenty of those cables, but then found it performed at a meagre peak of 40MBs a second and video playback would constantly freeze. Thought it was a faulty drive till i tried it on my tablet with the original cable and got 130MBs no freezes etc. Ended up buying one of these to pair with my desktop and now all is well; https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07D7S93DD I had some pretty decent cables and even tried a USB-C adapter, but only the above worked out in the end.

THIS IS THE BEST EXT HDD TO USE

Oredered this to replace a broken external drive which I use for my MacBook with Time Machine. Registration was easy and connecting to MacBook via USB-C was simple plug in. Time Machine formatted the disk automatically and then backed up my hard drive. Simple and it works straight out the box. Also has recovery codes included should they be required. Great service from Amazon, highly recommended.

Slow and unreliable. Have had to fix with command line terminals twice. Am replacing after only six months. Avoid like the plague.

Works well and is especially suitable for USB-C computer ports, i.e. it can plug straight in without an adapter. This drive is also light and shapely.

Perfect for the job!

Unfortunately, after copying some footage, one of the two hard drives I purchased stopped working. At first, it showed errors and began turning off unexpectedly during the copying process. Now it doesn’t work at all. I would love to return it for a refund or replacement, but I’m unable to do so because it contains client footage that I can’t share or risk exposing. I was aware of the risks from some of the one-star reviews, but unfortunately, I haven’t been lucky and ended up having a bad experience myself. I really wish quality control were more reliable to avoid failures like this. The product concept and the idea of recycling materials are great in theory. Sadly, I can’t support it based on my experience and will have to stick with a different brand I’ve trusted for years.

Pas encore utilisé beaucoup mais parfait pour l’instant. La prise usb c est vraiment un immense plus. À voir s’il tient dans le temps mais très satisfait jusqu’à présent !

Easy to install. Quiet and tiny. Faster and more portable than the drive it replaced. Love the little icon. Good quality overall. I'd buy it again.

Points positifs : Silencieux, Esthétique, Matériau de qualité, Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Points négatifs : Rien à signaler.

Ottimo prodotto
