    Fantastic. Great hardrive and plenty of storage space. I had to use my first one when my computer crashed and it is so much easier than reinstalling everything.

    I purchased a Seagate 1TB external hard drive and it works great. I use it for all my backups for my desk top computer. And the price was very reasonable.

    It is a very small external drive, takes up little space by the computer. Used to transfer data from old computer to new, and now for back up. No complaints.

    The size is great and portable, something which is key for my work. It also has a sturdy cord that seems better than WD products that I've used in the past. It remains to be seen if it will corrupt (since I've had that problem in the past) but so far, so good.

    Backup Plus Slim is a great portable backup. It does not take up much room; I have several so that I can easily rotate them for an easy off site backup source.

    My computer was showing the'blue screen of death'. When I took it in to the Geek squad, they suggested an external hard drive and this is what I bought. Lots of storage!

    Open and replace old hard drive out of PS4 and put old PS4 hard drive back in the case and you got more space on game and more external space for whatever

    I've always liked Seagate Drives, and they've come down in price enough that I have several of them now, both for doing backups and for storing unneeded files
