    I like the seagate drives, I have a few and have had no problems. This is a great drive for my son who just needs to save his documents for college on an external drive.

    We needed a back-up hard drive for my son's X-box 360. We were greeted by a friendly employee when we entered, told him what we were looking for and he steered us right to this solution. It is just what we were looking for.

    I bought this to primarily store pictures and documents in order to free up space on an older computer that does not have many gigabites or much memory.It does an excellent job and I love that I can take it with me if and when I travel and plug into any computer to have easy access to what is stored on it. It has done the job I bought it for very well.

    Excellent for backup use for photos, videos, documents. Best of all is the size. Easy to take with you, would recommend a hard case for it if you are traveling (purchase separately). Comes with USB cable so you are good to go!

    A terrific size for a portable external hard drive! And, it's 1 TB of memory. It'll hold several backups! It's size is perfect to bring with us to our summer home!......Make sure it's Windows compatible....the first one I purchased was for a Mac, but I was reassured at that time by the salesman that it was an Apple product, but would work with a Mac or Windows compatible PC.....He was wrong! If you buy, make sure that the salesman knows which one you need........they aren't all aware of this!!

    Since I only use this hard drive to back up my files and homework, the storing space is large enough. Till now I haven't found any problems when using it. Worth purchasing. Already recommended to one of my friends.

    Great product for the price. Aluminum top finish looks slick and seems to disperse heat well. With my usb add-on card, this is faster than my internal sata drive. I would have given 5 stars if the bottom rubber pads gripped the table better. it slides around a little too easily. Overall, I'm happy with it.
