    Do you want a portable Hard Drive - this is for you. You can travel with it and use it anywhere. As a photographer I can upload my photos to this without any issues. This is my third one - the best external Hard Drive.

    Not sure if it is Windows 10 but the SeaGAte GoFlex I purchased a few years back was much easier to access the stored information than this one. Overall, it does its job and it is much smaller for more storage room.

    Bought 2 of these. One for my PC so that I could burn my DVD library to digital for watching via PLEX and a second as secondary storage for my XBOX ONE. Both work great, movies play without stuttering/lag as do games. Great price!

    I use this as a backup drive and it works. I can not say anything about how long it will last. Since I have owned it for less than two months.

    Seagate - Backup Plus Slim 2tb External Usb 3.0/2.0 Portable Hard Drive - White seems to be working well for my needs and so far I would recommend it for others interested in expanding disk storage or for backups.

    We use this as an cold backup. Speed isn't an issue since we just set it and forget it. The capacity if good enough for our uses now but eventually we'll need more. Definitely would buy again.

    Overall using the Seagate external hard drive was simple. I did however buy this device to use with both my Macbook Pro and HP computers at my office. I am still having trouble seeing it on the latter. Once I have perfected how to use it with both systems this product will definitely get 5 stars. Lightweight, ultraportable, compact yet powerful storage capacity.

    Works well and is a lot smaller to transport with my laptop. Double the capacity of my older 1TB model too. Only issue so far is that it doesn't seem to be able to coexist on the same USB 3.0 hub with my older one.
