    2TB is plenty of room to house iCloud backups for multiple devices with room left over for photos and storage while remaining slim and portable. Overall a great deal, minus one star for the tethered USB cord.

    I was looking for an external hard drive for backing up all my computers, and so far this has done just fine. It was easy to set up, has worked fine with my Mac and PC, and with 2 TB I can pretty much fit everything I own on it…

    I like Seagate External Hard Drives

    I have owned over 5 of the Seagate external hard drives over the last few years. I have never had a problem with them, so I keep buying them. I have used them on CPU's and Mac's. I wish they could be used on both and keep the security features intact. It is disappointing that the only way to have it work on both it to make it a Fat32.

    Very quick drive and tons of room. Because it works with both Mac and PC, I’ve had a little trouble with creating a full image of my computer on the drive. Otherwise it has been flawless.

    I bought this product and it definitely works well with my newer model macbook pro. It is easy to store in a desk and seems sturdy enough. However, I would not recommend leaving the cord plugged in while traveling. It's better to fully unplug once on the go.

    I've had the drive for two years and it has worked fine even with a two-state move. The new drives are sleeker and feel more solid than this model which reminded me of old-school desktop hard drives that someone sealed in a box. I'd recommend the newer Seagate external drives compared to this one.
