    I purchased this product after specifically asking the salesman if it was compatible with a windows laptop and a Mac that I would have to be backing up. He assured me that I could use it for both of my laptops but unfortunately it doesn't work that way. It's either a Mac back up or a Windows backup it can't be both. However, it is a good little back up tool and I'll probably just go buy another for my Mac.

    I make it a point to always use Seagate drives when possible due to my experience with their warranty return process when it becomes necessary. This little drive is fast, even on USB 2.0 and the cloud backup included for the entire warranty period is a huge bonus!

    I would recommend getting a case for this just to give it more protection. I ordered my first one, and it fell off my desk (about 2 ft). They replaced it with no hassle but since then I got a case. Everything works fine, I haven't had any problems with it.

    This drive worked perfectly for about a month, but is now not recognized by any computer. I changed the cord and it still doesn't work. I bought it because I purchased a new desktop and needed to transfer my files. Unfortunately, I hadn't finished putting all of my files back on my new desktop before this drive stopped working. I will now have to pay between 100-350 to try to retrieve my lost files and there is no guarantee. They are extremely important to me and it is devastating that this drive is not reliable. I have had other drives for 8-10 years and they are still working fine. Very disappointing.
