    The Seagate external drive is a great devise to store important back ups of your work without having to use memory on your regular hard drive. It is especially good for video work since that does take up a lot of memory space.

    I bought this because I needed somewhere to store all my digital photos from my old phones and digital cameras. I had the cloud storage but it wasn't enough without spending a lot of money on additional space. This worked perfectly for what I needed it for. I was able to upload all my old photos to it no problem.

    This is a super simple device to set up. Seriously, the longest step is getting the drive out of the packaging. Once plugged in, you are only seconds from backup. Simple, fast, and relatively inexpensive makes this a winner!

    I am very please with this external USB hard drive. I'm using it on my Windows 10 PC and it's working great. I like the fact that it doesn't require an external power source, it just plugs into the PC via the USB 3.0 cable.
