    I've only used it once. I bought this to back up all the photos I've taken with my iPhone 6plus. The process was not complicated and I now have my older photos on the hard drive and have plenty of room for photos of my new niece. I haven't done anything else with it, so I can't really comment on how easy it will be to access the photos I have stored on the drive.

    The Seagate Backup Plus Slim 1TB External Hard Drive works great for those computers that need just a bit more space for extra documents and downloads! It helps me exponentially by storing all of my extra recordings and software; this allows my computer to run faster now that it has a cleaner internal hard drive! However, the hard drive itself can take quite a bit of time to load all of its files for the owner's viewing pleasure. Despite this, I'd like to thank Best Buy and Seagate for the sale!

    The smaller unit I had bought several years ago was full and I kept getting notice that nothing was being backed up. This unit was recommended by the Geek Squad. Now I can feel safe that all is being backed up and with the things I use my computer for I should not need a bigger unit at any time. Probably will buy a new computer before that ever happens.

    What a great product. It's small, lightweight and you can take it anywhere. I have an older 1 TB HD and it is the size of a hardcover novel. This is perfect to store important and precious info that you want to save.
