Works well but not perfect

This is not plug and play. It is also not fast. It took me days to get my data on to this storage. (Use a cable don't use wireless when copying a lot of data at one time.) The Seagate application for Samsung TV/devices does not work well. It is really clunky and video playback has problems most of the time. The Seagate application for iPhone works better and for the most part this will stream to my TV with Chromecast. The main reason I purchased this was to store my home video files (instead of burning them to DVD) and be able to watch them on TV. I am able to do this but I had to read or watch a lot of "how to" guides to figure it all out. I hope there will be improvements and this will get easier and better in the future.

I bought this and then returned because I found one similar for 1/5 the price. Mechanically this is probably very sound but the price is not worth it.

This is just a standard ink cartridge. I have ordered dozens of these. When the price is right and ink is low I usually buy a spare on line to have it on hand. It costs the same with less hassle to buy it online.

This is my second Samsung TV. I like the Smart capabilities and the ease of connecting it to the internet. I do not have it connected to my cable box but instead just use the Smart features like HBO Go and Pandora. I also use Chromecast to "cast" my laptop/iPad monitor screen to the TV.

Very useful wifi thermostat

I have an older AC unit and was worried when the instructions told me to go online and watch their alternate instruction video. This video walked me through rewiring my AC unit to add the additional needed wire and it was very easy install. The unit is very easy to use and looks nice. It was also easy to connect to my wifi. It is very nice being able to control my system remotely.

Can this be used as an iTunes library that is shared between my desktop and laptop?

I am thinking of using this as both a backup for my PC laptop (wireless) and also to move my iTunes library from my desktop PC to this storage device. Does anyone have any experience using this as an iTunes library, and if so, how is the playback over wireless?
Yes. I did this. For initial iTunes setup (adding your music) make sure you use an Ethernet connection not wireless connection. Still, I have a 120Gb music collection and it took over a day to populate. (some songs did have to convert from .wma format)
