    I bought this for my daughter so she could back up her photos in case her desk top crashed. I have a Seagate external hard drive I purchased several years ago and I've been very pleased with it, so I felt this was a good choice for her as well, especially with 1TB storage.

    Needed an external hard drive for photo storage (was Christmas gift). Seagate produces a good quality hard drive and the unit was competitively priced and in stock.

    I use this little guy to keep a current backup of my laptop. Love the handly little size. Wish the cord was a little more universal (in case I lose it), but it lives in my laptop case and provides insurance. It's perfect for that.

    The Seagate Backup 1TB is the best way to go. It's portable and slim. Not the bulky big normal external hard drive. This is great for both Apple or PC. I have about 4 1TB for different things as I travel a lot. Always backup your computer as you never know what can happen.

    This external drive is really easy to use and install, but the install for registration part was acting goofy for a week or so. May have needed an update on their part and they fixed it? My roommate had no problems using it on his computer to transfer over music and tv shows on it for me to use.

    I bought this to replace an old LG 1TB NAS drive that died on me. I've been pleased with the ease of setup and the flexibility it offers. While it is a bit different than having the NAS drive always available, it does a great job of backing up all my critical files and data.

    Easy to set up. Just go ahead and install the software, plug in the drive, tell it to back up and you're ready to go. It won't set you back that much money either it has a very reasonable price tag for the size and what it does.
