Customer Questions & Answers

Question:
Anyone use this as a working hard drive rather than a backup drive? Want to use it for Photoshop Lightroom Libraries!
Answer: Yes, you can use it as an active hard drive for storing and accessing files like videos, but make sure to back up your important data to avoid potential loss. -
Question:
IS THIS 7200 RMPS disk speed?
Answer: The 2TB model has 7200 RPM, but the 4TB model has 5900 RPM. Most models are 7200 RPM except for the 4TB variant, which has a different speed. -

Answer: Yes, it is compatible with USB2 ports. However, avoid using the bundled Dashboard 2 software on Mac as it may cause system issues. -

Question:
external vs desktop
Answer: It appears there may have been issues with the functionality of the drive in specific setups. -
Question:
Can I use this with more than one computer?
Answer: Yes, you can use it with multiple computers for backups, as long as you manage the drive letter and storage locations properly. -

Does it have an ON-OFF switch or is it always ON when connected?
Answer: It does not have an ON-OFF switch and remains powered on when connected. -

Seagate External Hard Drives Editorial Review
The Seagate Backup Plus 4TB Desktop External Hard Drive USB 3.0 STCA4000100 is a versatile drive that is suitable for backup and active hard drive usage. The drive is fast and compatible with USB3.0 and FW800. Customers note that the drive goes into sleep mode after 15 minutes of no use and it can also be used with a router. It is a USB 2 compatible drive and it does not have an on/off switch. It comes with a USB 3.0 to SATA adapter which is removable, exposing the SATA3 data and power interface. The drive can fit on its big side, but a problem with diminished cooling is likely to occur. The drive is reported to Consume less than 10 watts of energy. However, there are concerns about the drive's durability. There are reports of the drive failing after being used for a short period of time, and it seems that Seagate has had some quality control issues. The device is also known to make noise when in use and to have a bright light indicator.
