This is much smaller physical drive than the much bigger black drive that sea Gate makes as well. This is much easier to put in your pocket and take it with you anywhere. also it does not need its own power cord as the big black drive needs and it is about 1/4 of the weight at least. This is the way to go for a 5 Tb drive space.

This is a great drive. It is lightweight, portable and has ample storage. I would however, not recommend this to be a great portable drive. For this kind of density, they have pretty much condensed a lot into a small form factor. This means that the platters and the heads are all pretty much working at an optimal setting. My experiences - even a hard pat on the desk will cause the drive to fail. Handle it with care, especially when it is active. Losing 5GB of data is one thing. Losing 5TB is quite another. I WOULD not recommend putting your life's files into this drive as the primary storage. It is great to be used as a backup. If at all possible, just connnect it to your NAS or to your desktop in a shock-free, fall-proof setting and it will probably last you a lifetime. One drop, one little vibration at the wrong time means that the disk is bricked. Seagate however has excellent support and if you enter the S/N and the P/N, they will accept returns and ship you a replacement drive for free. If you pay 10$ upfront, they will actually ship you a replacement drive and a return label so that you can use the same packaging to return the actual drive. This is not a pocket drive. I use rotational drives for backup ONLY. But you can use it to store photos, videos and music as long as you are rsyncing those files to another location. It is definitely portable and if you handle with care, will last you a really long time.Read full review
