Great printer
on June 8, 2018
Posted by: cube
from Madison, WI
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this printer to print large (11x17) format paper. It works very well, and is much faster (particularly when duplexing) than the HP Photosmart that I used to use (but which did not print 11x17 paper). Lots of plusses: two paper trays make life easier, plus a special sheet feed on the back. It scans reasonably well, especially for a device that is not a dedicated scanner. About the only thing about this printer that is not ideal is printing photos, which came out a little dull on glossy photo stock (great if you want matte photos) - though I have not tried a variety of paper to see if that would make any difference.

iPad mini 4 has a gorgeous 7.9-inch Retina display, yet it's only 6.1mm thin and weighs just 0.65 pounds, making it small enough to hold in one hand. It has a powerful A8 chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity, iCloud, the breakthrough Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and up to 10 hours of battery life. It also includes great apps for productivity and creativity, and powerful new features in iOS 9 like multitasking. And there are even more incredible apps available in the App Store.

This device replaced an older iPad
on January 12, 2018
Posted by: cube
from Madison, WI
Verified Purchase:Yes
We purchased another iPad Mini (this one a 4) because the screen on our iPad Mini (version 2) started acting up. We suspect that this may have been caused by too much heat. A year or so ago we replaced the original (dirty) cover with a third-party one, as the originals were no longer available. We also note that Apple does not even offer a full case, only a cover, for the Mini 4, which we suspect was in response to issues from overheating on earlier devices, perhaps. Anyway, we love the new device.

I purchased this movie as a gift for my wife, who mentioned wanting to watch this before we go out and see The Last Jedi. This package had the BluRay, DVD (in case you want to buy now, but don't have BluRay yet) and a special features disc.

Good drive used in an iMAC

Seagate is one of my go-to brands for disk drives. This one replaced an apparently failing drive in my late brother's iMAC. As usual I did a full format to check the surface completely, and the formatting completed without errors.

Good drive at a good price

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased this to use for backups/archival on my PC. Seagate is one of the go-to brands I use for hard drives. Before I use it, I run a full format that checks the entire disk surface, and the format completed without error. (I happen to use this particular drive with a Sabrent USB adapter/power supply and an E-SATA cable, designed for an "internal" hard drive).

Western Digital is one of my go-to brands for disk drives. Bought this one to save my late brother's photos from his iMac, whose internal drive was having problems, onto this drive so my sister-in-law could access them easily from Windows.

For my wife's newer printer I always get HP original ink, rather than refills, and have not had any problems with them at all.

A good way to get started in home automation
on October 28, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Samsung Smart Things home monitoring kit is a great way to get started in home automation. The sensors are useful for lots more than security. For example, you can use it to turn on lights when motion is detected. Also, since it is compatible with both Z-Wave and Zigbee, you can add lots of devices, like Cree smart light bulbs relatively inexpensively.

Apple still has it

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this to replace a 3 year old Toshiba Android tablet that had become increasing frustrating because more and more software would not run on it, and because the Adroid 4 software slowed it to a snails pace. The iPad 2 is a JOY compared to it - I use it daily. (Disclaimer: I am an Apple shareholder. ;) ).

Optimize the performance of your desktop with this Seagate 2TB internal Serial ATA hard drive that features perpendicular recording technology for reliable file storage and Native Command Queuing (NCQ) for data transfer speeds up to 6 Gbps.
 

What RPMs?

Good question. The box does not say. But almost any "desktop" drive will be 7200, and a Google of the part number, on the box, STD20900101 reveals that it is indeed 7200 RPM.

What is included with the package?

Just the drive and a little manual. No SATA or power adapter cable(s).

In regard to "Seagate - 2tb Internal Serial Ata Hard Drive For Desktops - Multi", what does Multi mean?

Multi means various sorts, e.g. in this case if you look at the side of the box, Seagate says that it will work successfully with Windows 7, 8 and 10, and Mac OS X Snow Leopard or later, and, of course, Linux. Basically, it will work with any system that supports a 3Gb or faster SATA interface, and a 2TB drive.

This Seagate STBD3000100 internal hard drive for desktops features a 3TB capacity to store important documents, photos, videos, music and more. Native Command Queuing prioritizes important commands for enhanced efficiency.
 

On website for this item it describes "Hard Drive Capacity:" and then three boxes: 1GB, 3GB and 4GB. Typo that needs to be fixed?

Seagate uses the same box for different capacities, with the only difference being the UPC sticker on the back and a capacity sticker on the front.

Access important files at home and on the go with this Seagate Personal Cloud STCR5000101 external USB and Ethernet hard drive, which offers a personal Cloud with a 5TB storage capacity for secure file sharing, streaming and remote access.
 

is the Seagate cloud my personal cloud connected to my server only, And 2. How much of the 5tb is in the cloud vs the physical hard drive . OR are both my cloud and the physical drive both storing the same pics and info?

I would expect that the Seagate cloud storage would be shared. I don't know for sure, but expect you can set it up with encryption.

http://www.seagate.com/manuals/network-storage/seagate-personal-cloud/backup-manager/
http://www.seagate.com/support/network-attached-storage/home-network/personal-cloud/

The box of an ordinary Seagate drive identifies the actual amount of storage on the drive itself. Often these include offers for *additional* storage on the cloud for some limited period of time, often for one year.

Note that Seagate also offers cloud storage appliances, which are different than a drive with an offer for use of some separate cloud storage.

A more specific answer would require the exact Seagate model number that you are considering.

What are some of the fastest tablets to use?

The latest tablets are also faster. In my experience, the iPad 2 is really fast, particularly compared to my 3-year-old Toshiba Android tablet (which was faster than what Samsung had at the time).
