Review: 10/10 - This HHD works just as expected. It’s easy to install if you know what you’re doing and know your way around the inside of your PC. It’s very good quality which is why I love Seagate. It is quite heavy but that didn't cause any problems for me. It’s worth the price, with stuff like this it’s better to not go for the cheap stuff and go with a trusted brand. Overall 10/10 and i recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good budget large drive - and I got it to run on Windows XP!
*by I***N on 21 September 2019*

I purchased this 8TB drive as a backup volume to replace a dying 4TB Seagate drive. It arrived earlier than estimated, well packaged, via Royal Mail, requiring a signature. The drive seems to be a good basic model. Inspection with SeaTools and CrystalDiscInfo found no problems and verified that it was brand new. It came pre-partitioned in NTFS into 2.1 and 5.1 TB sections (7.2TB is all the usable space on any 8TB disc when it is formatted, alas), but it was two minutes work with the freeware version of AOEMI Partion Assistant software to make it one large volume as I wanted (lots of other free software is also available and would presumably have done the same as well). I wanted this drive to work on an old 32-bit Windows XP operating system, and as many people have discovered, XP can't see hard drives bigger than 2.1TB. However, in the old days Seagate (and others) got round that by including a cunning little chip in the "bridge" hardware in their external hard drive cases that fooled XP into thinking that 4MB clusters were 512K clusters and, well, short version is it allowed XP systems to see bigger volumes - like my 4TB drive that was failing. So I swapped out the old 4TB drive inside that Seagate case with my new 8TB one, using the same bridge, and... hey, presto, my XP system is happy with its new 8TB (well, 7.2TB) hard drive! I empahsise that this would only be possible using that generation of drive cases pre about 2016 that includes the little wonder chip. I'm hoarding mine like gold dust. This trick with that bit of tech should theoretically let XP see drives up to just under 17TB. Anyway, so far I'm very satisfied with this purchase, which came promptly and did everything a budget large hard drive is supposed to do.
