We got one before. But it died after a few months. Mailed to the Recovery and was told the damage couldn't be recovered. Lost 2 years important data, including kids videos.

for photos and videos you gotta back them up to another hard drive or upload to cloud. //@anonymous: We got one before. But it died after a few months. Mailed to the Recovery and was told the damage couldn't be recovered. Lost 2 years important data, including kids videos.

I have experience with 4 external HDD (from 3TB to 8TB). The only one that failed within a year was a Seagate. The other three WD are still working fine after 5+ years.

I had a 8TB Seagate external hard drive, and it lasted only 1 year. I lost my precious data.

You are confusing between device and service. Roku streaming device is a device which can be used to watch prime video and Netflix. //@anonymous: Can anyone tell me why one would prefer roku over prime or Netflix or other streaming services? What am I not seeing?

This is a streaming device. It does come with free Roku channel, but you can add Netflix, Hulu, CBS, Disney+ and hundreds of other streaming channels services. Or not. It's up to you. The advantage of going with Roku as opposed to Google Chrome, Apple TV or Amazon Fire TV is that those guys have an intense battle going on for market share and they cut each other from their services. Roku stayed out of it so far and it paid off for their customers. //@Anonymous: Can anyone tell me why one would prefer roku over prime or Netflix or other streaming services? What am I not seeing?

Languages supported by Roku are limited, the subtitles and files in Asian languages are showing as squares and I could not find a workaround online. I recently switched to Fire stick and it doesn’t have this issue.

If you're not a hacker, a Roku is better out of the box because Google Play and Apple are available apps by default. //@Anonymous: Thanks! This is what I thought //@anonymous: Fire tv stick 4k.

Walmart onn 4k pro is same price with a lot more features. Roku UI is really dated and it just gets laggy after a few years. Onn google TV has remote finder feature and handsfree.. roku needs to get better at its hardware spec.
