    This portable seagate hard drive is great! I've had one for more than a year and I've never ran into any problems. Recently needed another one and got myself my second seagate portable hard drive.

    This is excellent 2TB portable hard drive and the Best Buy sale price made it a bargain for a 2TBs drive. I prefer Seagate drives over other brands. The USB 3.0 definitely speeds up transfers from my PC.

    I purchased this portable storage device during the thanks giving at the best buy for amazing price for such a good quality product. Its portable to carry with us to different places and easy to transfer the data. The important thing is that device is compatible with the USB 3.0 and 2.0 devices so no need to worry about what devices we are using. The 2TB storage capacity gives the user to store lot of data without any hassle. The transfer data takes place at the good speed.

    This portable hard drive appears to be well made, and is very compact. I have generally had good luck with Seagate products, and this one was a good value for its capacity (on Black Friday sale.)

    This is my third 2TB Seagate external hard drive... love them all, fill them up with video/pictures and one's a backup. Have them in 3 colors, so it's easy to know what's what.

    I have owned and used quite a few external hard drives and have always been happy with Seagate internal and external drives. This particular one is compact and fast when used with a usb 3.0 ready pc.

    It's the same thing without directly saying xbox one on it, I bought this for someone but I've had the same one for a year. I love it. Just plug it in and follow the directions, super simple.

    I bought this HDD to replace my 500 GB PS4 HDD that was continuously full. This HDD was easy to install in the PS4 and really does make a huge difference storage wise. It's such a relief to not have to delete/download games constantly anymore. Just be warned, you will need a separate portable HDD to backup your old drive before installing this one! You can't restore the backup from your new drive. This mistake cost me multiple hours.

    I have bought after reading several reviews. I had only WD in my mind, but wanted to try Seagate for personal files back up. For the price, WD doesn't provide any auto back up from mobile. Thats how i narrowed down to Seagate. Its worth for price i paid.
