REVIEW: Seagate Backup Plus Hub 8 TB – External Hard Drive + USB hub!

I got a Seagate Backup Plus Hub 8 TB External Hard Drive ( https://amzn.to/2OGva2K ) for at Costco. This is a very large external hard drive with USB A ports in the front of the drive. This is good for charging your phone or to use other USB devices.

I needed to clear out hard drive space on my MSI GE75 Gaming laptop ( https://amzn.to/326XfDJ ) that i use for video editing. I normally carry a Crucial 1 TB SSD drive ( https://amzn.to/327rABM ) to quickly transport and backup video and footage to and from my laptop.

The Crucial X6 SSD ( https://amzn.to/327rABM ) transfers about 500 megabytes a second. However, for longer term backups of footage, using a traditional mechanical external hard drive is more cost effective. SSD drives transfers 5 times faster than traditional drives but costs at least 5 times as much has of this 2021. The cost is the reason why I also have a portable mechanical hard drive.

I have a few Seagate Backup Plus Hub 8 TB External Hard Drive ( https://amzn.to/2OGva2K ) external desktop hard drives to backup my laptop. In the video it transfers at about 68 to 160 megabytes a second which is fast for a mechanical hard drive. So my typical 300 megabyte video clips and footage takes about 3 seconds to backup. So it is worth it to carry both SSD and HDD when working remotely from home.

This drive uses the same single USB 3,0 cable as my other Seagate external hard drives. The case is lightweight and made of plastic. Since it is a traditional mechanical drive, you need to be careful not to place it next to magnetic fields.

This is why i only bring my SSD drive with me when traveling away from home or office. Crucial X6 SSD ( https://amzn.to/327rABM ) is not magnetic and has no moving parts. I usually keep my Seagate desktop drives at the office or work site only.

Lastly, the Seagate Backup Plus Hub 8 TB External Hard Drive ( https://amzn.to/2OGva2K ) is warranted for 2 years, so I typically buy a new one drive that is double the size of my previous drive to backup my all my data on to my new hard drive. I normally backup all my new content and data at the end of the month.

HOW TO: Change Honda Transmission Oil / Fluid for 2018 -2021 HONDA CLARITY

Honda Clarity Vlog 15 – A quick video on how to change the TRANSMISSION oil on my 2018 – 2021 Honda Clarity. This is part of the Service A0123 videos I made for my Road Tripping with Clare. It takes about 15 minutes to do this procedure with tools. I change my Honda Clarity when the Maintenance Minder notifies me or about every 50,000 miles on average. I saved me time and money (about $100+ ) from going to a dealership to do the transmission oil change.

HOW TO: SHARK Stick Vacuum – Filter & Roller Cleaning! Monthly Maintenance Routine!

After 2 months of using my Costco SHARK Cordless PET PLUS Stick Vacuum – ( https://amzn.to/3I8cuix ), I have been cleaning the foam and hepa filters and rollers every month and they are DIRTY! To maintain the performance of this vacuum, it only takes about 5 minutes to clean.

The floor attachment roller is very well designed to prevent hair and other items to be tangled in the roller. I noticed there were dust build up in the crevices and plastic nooks. Brushing and vacuuming all the dust helps the suction efficiency. You can also check and remove for any stuck fiber or debris from the roller and path.

You can remove the two sponge filters and clean them with water per the Shark owners manual, however I found using a drop of dish washing soap removes most of the trapped dirt faster and more completely than just a water rinse. It is evident in the darker water. Squeeze dry the sponge filters and let them completely dry before replacing.

I also clean the cone filter, however I only just rinse it with water and let it air dry completely.

Then clear waste bin also builds up dust along the edges and makes the case look gross. I rinse out and shake out all the dust buildup. Three rinses usually removes all the dust build up. I use a microfiber towel to dry and wipe the inside before letting it air dry completely before reinstalling.

Overall, the SHARK Cordless PET PLUS Stick Vacuum – ( https://amzn.to/3I8cuix ) is a great vacuum for the small home or apartment. You get great accessories for many cleaning situations. The suction is good for a stick vacuum. After 2 months of use, I find it very useful every day.
