    It's great having an extra terabyte of storage around, and I'm glad that I did get it, because I dropped my computer and was able to restore everything quite easily. However, the USB seems to come loose very easily, even when it's plugged in it needs to be angled right, so my connection will vanish. Not often, but enough to be annoying.

    My latop hard drive was out of space. Had about 2 GB out of 500 left. Rushed into the store and picked up one. Install with ease and was able to transfer my files with ease. Whole setup took a few seconds. I transferred over 300 GB of data in about or under 1 hour.

    This is my first external hard drive. Seems to work. Haven't used it too much but I did move files from a desktop computer to this and I was able to view on laptop. Got it on sale for a great price. Worth having. I like that it's compact and not big and bulky.

    love the slim design and the USB 3.0. Which has made the transfer of gigabytes of data much faster than the typical USB 2.0. The only bit of inconvenience was having to take a couple of extra steps to setup the unit to be used with Mac computer. Apart from having to go on th manufacturer'site I download a plugin for Macs, all is going well.

    Bought it to save an image of my computer. The operating drive was failing. Made an image, Dell came out and replaced the drive, reimaged the computer and we were back in business. No reloading programs, or configuring ribbons. Loved it.

    I purchased the Seagate Backup Plus to hold backups as well as my photo and video library. The 1TB capacity is sufficient to store both with significant room to spare. The device is light weight, but it still feels sturdy and well built.
