    It is working well for a mirror image of computer for Carbonite to store my operating information plus the weekly updates. I had a Seagate hard drive for my home back and it worked well for more than 12 years.

    This drive replaced a Seagate with less capacity and no auto-backup software. I'm very pleased with the continuous backup function. And 2TB is more than enough.

    Even though it was preformatted to use in a MAC, I reformatted if for Windows 8. No problems. I always buy Seagate because they make the best hard drives.

    I needed a new backup drive as my old one was getting aged. Wanted just a simple drive that did not have all the frills others had. This fit the bill just fine.

    I bought this to use to upgrade my kids ps4. I could swear it didn't specify that it was the desktop version when I ordered it. No biggie. I was able to exchange it in store for the laptop version.
