    It's a good fast drive but the storage is kinda low for today's standards. On the plus side, it's Fast and portable.

    Good deal for the price. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is the extra online storage they try to get you to buy.

    I am unable to save my data to this unit. Can't seem to transfer items after reading the instructions several times. Needs to have clear, straight forward guidelines.

    I had to return the first one because it's cord was messed up. I found that is pretty common with Seagate. The device is self can be a little more user friendly.

    It did not initially start when 'scheduled'. Once I figured out how to trigger the backup to 'Run Now', I was happy. I did a backup of my old PC to capture all files and then a backup of my new PC for a clean restore if ever needed. I plug it in and trigger a backup on my timetable and it works out well.
