    I have used Seagate external hard drives for years and have always been happy! They last quite a while, they never have infant mortality issues (early hard drive death), and they are easy to use.

    First of all, I like the fact that this portable hard drive is portable. I've had a couple that was the weight of my tablet! It's a pretty fast unit. Transfers at a good rate.

    Seagate makes great external drives as per many reviews I have looked at. With my previous Seagate drive I had great experience for almost 5 years. Hopefully I will get what I need out of this one. It is slim, easy to carry when you travel.
