Seagate STAE128 External Thunderbolt Adapter for Portable Drives

This is a 5900 rpm drive.

We do not sell Power Supplies for this product at this time. Your best bet will be to reach out to Seagate directly to see if they have it available as a Service Part.

I am sorry but that is not possible.

No, this drive cannot be daisy chained in order to add additional storage to an existing drive, but it can be used a separate supplemental drive for additional storage.

March 2019: Yes. I bought two of these and both came with five different plug adapters that affix to a modular power cord (w/o its own terminals). Useful set, though these aren't really meant for travel. EU AC input plug, p/n 100693228 US/CN AC input plug, p/n 100693227 UK AC input plug, p/n 100693229 KR AC input plug, p/n 100693230 AU AC input plug, p/n 100693231 This probably doesn't matter, but the UK one has a plastic dummy ground plug. All the rest are two-prong. Hope this helps.

If formatted properly, yes. I have been using it for several years on my iMac for Time Machine backups. It has been working flawlessly.

If they are both USB 3, they are pretty much the same (assuming they're the same capacity): Backup Plus is Seagate's branding. Different brands and models typically have different controlling microcode, number of platters, various refinements and sometimes different rotational speeds. Some may bundle backup software, and some may even have "built-in" encryption (which often is not as secure as it should be).

As per Dish's requirements this drive would not work. The drive must : Have its own power supplyBe between 50GB and 2TB in sizeHave a single disk drive (flash memory is not compatible)As this is an 8TB drive it would not work.
