    Easy to carry, easy to plug-in and use. Great for video files that would otherwise eat up my MacBook's hard drive.

    Easy to install software. Backup is fast with USB 3.0. This is my second Seagate drive. Very good to have as I used the first one to backup my laptop that crashed but I have all the files on Seagate drive.

    This has been a good reliable hard drive thus far with respect to making large data backups. It's very portable and fits easily into a computer carrying bag so it's simple to take with you when you need it.

    Our daughters have a band and it is simply a great way for them to store their music compositions and other documents with lyrics - and associated pictures and videos. This frees up space on their laptops and they can take their work practically anywhere with them. Very compact and easy to use.

    Perfect size for portability; yet providing a ton of disk space at the same time - enough for personal use.

    I ws shopping around for a external hardrive that would have a lot of storage and not be bulky or make alot of noise like my old G drive. I really love the way the Seagate - Backup Plus Slim looks and the price for 2TB was in my budget. Easy to install and quieter than a mouse !
