    This makes the 6th external hard drive I have bought, Seagate is the best and this slim version is great. I collect everything, recipes, pictures, music & the list goes on. Each thing I decide to collect thousands of I buy it's own personal hard drive so I guard my little stash like crazy. You won't regret spending the money, besides the price is right,

    Would have returned it if still had the box. Got it for continual backup of the single computer and NEVER accomplished the first auto backup. Tried everything, uninstalling the software. It takes forever - up to 3 minutes - for a software menu selection to register. When first launching, doesn't see the drive, then after a while will appear. Choose it and a splash screen will appear blocking the menu with it frozen for a few more minutes. You don't know is anything is working, if the command registered, etc as nothing spinning suggesting it is doing something. Pressed the test and after a while it confirmed that the drive was good. Since leaving for an extended trip, had intended the backup for off site storage while gone. Ended up manually copying all photos, documents, videos, and music over. Never had problems with Seagate drives before and is what my primary drive is in the computer and the reason for not taking it to 1 Star. This software is so buggy it is pathetic.

    Love this little guy. Takes up next to no room. Runs quietly and does not slow my computer. Easy to configure for a Mac and works well with Time Machine. I am really happy with this product and would highly recommend.
