    External Hard Drive

    I was beginning to question security for all the personal stuff I had stored in the cloud. I had an external hard drive previously, from another manufacturer and had difficulty accessing my files. This Seagate drive is great. Effortless installation and very easy to use. Everyone should have one of these. I have 45+ year old photos from my time in Vietnam and they are priceless. I feel very safe with them on this drive. Len Ganz

    I wanted something that could store a good amount of data for a project without breaking the bank and this fit the need. Product was easy to unpack and install and use. Unlike other companies, Seagate didn't need attempt to install any of the included software on my computer which I appreciated.

    I have never used one of these, so this summary is from someone new to this product. For me, this drive is very fast. It also has an app for my iPad that allows me to wirelessly backup it up as well, as long as it is plugged into my laptop. I have tried this and it works like a charm. The drive is very small and thin and is just awesome.

    I bought it as emergency to save data from an ailing Surface, and it did it well. I wanted a straightforward solution, just to have my files in a safe place, and frankly it is difficult to get it these days: almost all backup devices come with cloud schemes, and at the end you do not really know where your files end up. Otherwise, I already use a cloud service, nicely integrated into the Surface, why to use another one?
