    We use external hard drives non stop for video editing. I have grown to like the simplicity of the Seagate product. The best part about this portable is it's solid construction while still having a small frame. It's quiet, and I have never had an issue transferring data to it. Registering it with Seagatee is easy through a link that comes from the factory and I have yet to have one DOA. Very dependable product and affordable if you're looking for a back up or external drive to handle large files. Another big plus is the capacity and it's USB3.0 powered.

    I bought this to have a quick and small option to back up family photos. It doesn't have the quickest writing capability, but it certainly works well. It also has a small foot print and would fit easily into a laptop bag or backpack.

    I picked this up over the WD My Passport because of the slim profile. No complaints yet. Good performance and plenty of storage capacity.

    As with most backup drives, this one is easy to use, but it is quite fast. I had no issue with it what so ever and would recommend it.
