    (OLD MODEL) Seagate Central 4TB Personal Cloud Storage NAS STCG4000100

    • I tried with my Smart TV and it doesn't seem to work
    • When it did work, it performed very well and was easily accessible by all devices as well as our smart TV
    • The drive links easily to my LG Smart TV
    • If you have a smart TV or a smart Blu-ray player, the app available to install on your TV or blu-ray player makes accessing the content easy.
    • Seagate's listing for this product contains a significant ERROR: "Owners of Samsung Smart TVs and Blu-ray Players can take advantage of a unique Seagate Central app featuring visually rich media icons and remote-control navigation
    • DLNA server (allows you to stream content to a smart TV, for example)- iTunes (allows you to stream content to Apple devices)Each individual service can be disabled if necessary
    • This will only work on a Samsung smart TV
    • I was unable to locate any app that allowed my NEW Samsung Smart TV to connect to the Seagate Central unit
    • I use it to stream movies to the Tv's in my house, and it works really great, only need a DLNA compatible TV
    • Won't work on Samsung smart tv like advertised
    • I had seagate email me the list of compatible Samsung TVs and I got a list of 4 models!
    • These folders are only accessible from computer/laptop where you can enter password not from network devices(SMART TV) which can access network storage
    • So this media server that I purchased specifically to play videos with my Samsung TV because it is advertised as having an "Enhanced Media Experience for Samsung Smart TVs" was a complete waste of time and money.
    • I 'was' using it to backup my music files with iTunes and to also store Movies and TV Shows as well
    • With 3 iPads, 2 iPhones, 2 PCs, a Mac and a 55-inch Samsung Smart TV in addition to thousands of photos, hours of movies and even more music, the Seagate Central has become the missing piece of the puzzle -- the perfect media and document storage device
    • This product is advertised to work through their own app with Samsung Smart TVs from 2012 and up.
    • It will not connect directly to a Flatscreen unless the TV is Ethernet capable
    • Access by iPad Seagate app was good when the it worked and streaming of videos to the smart TV was excellent.
    • So, I decided to try the larger drive with the hopes of backing up 3 computers, plus watching videos, etc on the two smart tv's.
    • I also have a 2013 year Samsung SMART TV and there is no Seagate App for the TV.
    • n’t loose on it.
    • With the first failure I lost 2plus T of data that I can not replace
