    This drive offers me the portable storage I need with potential speeds up to USB 3.0. To me this is an excellent drive to pack and go with me on business trips.

    I can't tell you how easy this backup slim to work with!!!! I like flash drives but this slim is like a iPod feel. You can't loose it and it holds all plus more!!!! I do wish there was a case made for it.,I have put it in an old diabetic case....lol....I am sure there are pencil/paper pad cases out there. or even a GPS case would be great. I just want to protect my investment.

    This was a perfect back up when I was buying a new desktop and I didn't want to move all programs. I was also on a recent vacation in Europe and had hundreds of pictures I wanted to preserve....easy to use and great storage space.

    Seagate Harddrive

    When first purchasing my hard drive it was very easy. The features I wanted were clearly printed on the box. Also I did some comprising shopping from other photography websites and the prices are similar but shipping would have been more. I choose to purchase it at best buy because of convince and the brand name. I have always heard great things about seagate and I trusted them over western digital. I have been using it for a couple of weeks and I have only had one issue. I own a Mac and windows computer. Storing files on the hard drive was easy to me until I have to switch over to my MAC. All my files do appear when I'm at home but at another MAC computer it won't allow me to transfer them. I'm thinking it is because the software has to be installed on every computer that you use it on. The documentation that came with the drive was straight forward but wish they would include FAQ in the paperwork because I did not see a solution on their website. I am happy with this purchase and feel that it was a good investment.

    this is perfect for anyone needing an external HD for gaming systems.....it was so easy to set-up pretty much plug-n-play. its compact enough to keep from other heat sources to help from any chance of overheating & crashing. I don't know what else to add its perfect for what I needed it for, so i'd bought another for the xbox one in the other room. A+ verrrrrrry happy with this purchase !!

    The Seagate Backup Plus Slim storage drive is exactly as advertised. It is very slim and small and it is very simple and intuitive to use. Plus, it looks great. You can either use Seagate’s very easy to use dashboard to store and backup your files or you can simply use the old drag and drop method to load and copy your desired files onto the drive. Simple! I highly recommend this drive.
