    This is an excellent external hard drive for the money. I have three of them I am using for synchronized network storage and all have performed well.

    Opened box, read instructions pulled out Seagate, attached cable to computer and in minutes the data was backed up and retrievable. Smooth and fast.

    I like the way this external plugs in to my computer. No need for an outlet. Recently took it across country on the train and it worked perfectly.

    I don't have anything bad to say about this product. It's a large amount of space especially for the money and it's blazing fast during file transfers.

    This is my third portable Seagate HD. The other 2 aren't full, it's just that I like to backup my backups. As the storage goes up and the prices down, it's easier to purchase. I use for my Apple and have had no issues. The read/download speed is pretty fast. To transfer 1 gig of stuff takes only seconds.

    Bus powered! Great bonus that Seagate didn't ruin the wonderful compactness of the tiny portable drive needing power. It is cross OS compatible - Mac or PC - so use Time Capsule software from a Mac or the built in - and removeable - software that backs things up for you. It's light, small and so convenient.

    Although one of the two I bought was an openbox and not sold as such, they both worked right out of the box as expected. I have had pretty good luck with seagate drives in the past, so I'm optimistic these will perform excellent for a long time to come.
