The extra storage is great for the PC but runs slow for gaming. I do like it for storing pictures, documents etc. My son does have a slow response when he tries to play his game (that’s a plus for me because I get to use it).

These drives are reliable and fast. I have been using seagate drives for 5 years without any problems. Read speed is about 120 MB second. I always buy the the 5 gig version.

This hard drive was recommended to us by very knowledgeable and respected experts in the field of data protection and storage. Their purchase advice was absolkutely great because, for the first time in a long time, I feel very secure in having my important and valuable information safely backed up on this device. Great Choice.

I needed a extra drive for years of pictures plus a backup drive that was not tied to Microsoft. I was not interested in Western Digital due to issues with them crashing. Simple an easy to install.
