Description
Is your Seagate GoFlex Home no longer reachable on your network, and does the light stay off or blink? Then you can no longer get to your photos, backups and files. Often it isn’t the drive itself, but the adapter that no longer delivers enough power. This power supply gives your GoFlex Home the 12V it needs, with plenty of power to spare. Plug it in and as soon as it has booted, it is reachable on your network again.

How to verify this is the right power supply
Check the label on your original Seagate adapter. It should read Output: 12V DC ⎓ 3A with a center-positive polarity symbol. The barrel connector measures 5.5 × 2.1/2.5 mm barrel (combi plug). If your adapter shows different values, it is not the right model.
Frequently asked questions
Which power supply does the Seagate GoFlex Home use?
The GoFlex Home is powered by an external 12V DC adapter (36W). The original Seagate adapter can be replaced by any 12V DC adapter with the same barrel connector, correct polarity and at least the same wattage. The required connector is 5.5 × 2.1/2.5 mm barrel (combi plug), polarity center-positive.
Can I use a power supply with a higher amperage rating?
Yes. The device only draws the current it needs. A higher amperage rating is safe. Never use a higher voltage.
Is this an original Seagate power supply?
This is a compatible replacement adapter that meets or exceeds the original specifications, is CE-certified and tested before shipping. It is not manufactured by Seagate.
