    Bought this to replace an older external USB hard drive. I was amazed how much smaller and quieter the new one is. The data transfer rate is acceptable and the slim design makes it much less of an intrusion into your desktop space. I would definitely recommend this for additional storage space or for backup.

    Installed the backup software and it backed up quickly. Automatically backs up as you save files. Can't think of an easier way to do it. Very pleased.

    We signed up for cable and needed new equipment. We came to Best Buy where one of your employees told us what our equipment needs were. We took it off the shelf when another sales associate with whom we spoke earlier asked us if we needed additional help. We told him what we were there for and he told us we had the wrong equipment. We purchased what he suggested. Upon installation the equipment has worked perfectly. What am I to take from this experience? Always check with at least 2 of your employees and select the one that sounds more credible?

    It took me a while to understand that you have to use Time Machine to back up a Mac with this hard drive. Once I figured that out - it was sooo easy!

    This hardrive has so much space, I don't think I could use it all. I saved everything I had to it, with plenty of space to spare. Great product.

    Initially. I bought the Seagate 1 TB External Drive to backup my main computer because I was moving and didn't want to loose any data or files. I had plenty of space after backing up specific files and needed software to feel secure and the directions were easy to follow. I can carry it with me where ever I go. Very Handy.
