    This is my second Seagate external hard drive purchase. In both cases these hard drives are utterly plug and play with no issues whatsoever. Highly recommended drives!

    This has been a great product. I think it was a good investment to make when I purchased my computer to give me the extra room for necessary storage that I might need.

    As an external drive, it is easy to set up and easy to use. This product replaces an earlier one of the same manufacturer that stopped functioning.

    Been looking for an external drive for a while and after reading reviews for the Seagate BackUp Plus Slim 1TB I decided to order it. Got it in 2 days and by end of that day I has backed up all of the pictures and videos from my laptop. Very easy setup!

    We bought this for my older son. He ran out of room on his Xbox One so he asked for an external storage device. This worked perfectly with the Xbox One and it was super easy to install. It hold so much! But, if I had to do it over I would have bought a 2TB because my son refuses to delete anything. 1TB is more than enough but if you hate to erase anything maybe get the 2TB

    Simple, Fast Backup Drive

    I used this drive to backup my files from a Mac to be used on a PC. I was able to download a driver from Seagate that allowed my Mac to copy files to the drive without formatting to a Mac file system. This was very nice, since I was able to backup my files and still have a Windows file system on the Drive. The drive works well, without any unnecessary attempts to put the company's software on my computer automatically. They offer backup software, but it isn't forced down your throat. It is very fast when using a USB 3 port on the computer. The included cable is short, but it gets the job done.

    Bought it at a great price; brought it home; plugged it in; worked perfectly. Still working perfectly. My only regret is that I should have purchased TWO of them!!
