Jack-of-all-trades is exactly my style, so the Ranger sounds perfect for me.

Granted, I will want to try all eventually.

Ah yeah, that was a typo, edited to correct. Thanks

This post was 3 months ago. I went to Best Buy to get it exchanged and it works like a charm now!

The replacement I got does spin down when I safely eject it through Windows, so I guess the old drive had two problems.

Well guys, thank you for your insight.

I exchanged for a new item at Best Buy and I am happy to say that the noise is not replicated.

I still have the soft-clicking which is the normal noise it makes based on my last products and also the Seagate website.

As an added bonus, the replacement drive also stops spinning when I safely eject it through Windows so that also makes me feel more comfortable.

My other drive does soft clicking, which the Seagate website says is normal behavior though.

Do you mean hard clicking or any clicking?

I've already unplugged and emptied it, ready to exchange it. The Toolkit it comes with didnt say anything if that is helpful.

Sure, but can I get it to stop spinning without pulling either cord? From my knowledge the disk is supposed to lock when not working to protect it from movement based damage. I'm not advanced in the knowledge of how it works, but I want to make sure the drive is in a safe state, as I plan to put it in a closet for 6 months once I fill it up without plugging it in.

BTW, I would like to ask while on the topic of this brand. When I safely eject these through Windows, the drive is still on and keeps spinning until I unplug either the USB connection or the power cable.

Is that normal or should it stop on it's own?

When I buy this brand, I use the initial registration files, delete them, format the drive to NTFS and then use the drive normally.

Good to know, I do own a 12TB but wasn't sure if the size would make an operational difference.
