    I've found this easy to use. It's important to back up your computer regularly. A friend of mine just had a hard drive crash that was not recoverable. Save your documents and your photos!

    Backup for your Mac

    You should have three backups for essential files on your Mac. This is a handy one that is Time Machine compatible. You could store it off site or use it to back everything up before a software update -- something I highly recommend because not every "revision" is an enhancement. A clone, using Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner, will fit nicely on this and give you a Plan B in case a software update breaks your system.

    Very good to back up the whole computer. I use it for videos and pictures as my MacBook Air is limited to 128 Go. 2To is more than enough for me.

    I use my Dad's Mac to dump my phone and unless the drive is Mac built you have to download foreign software to make it compatible. This is a much better option!

    I wanted something that would connect to my home computer, laptop, tablet and phone and this is the one. I tried the backup plus but it wouldn't connect to my tablet. I have everything easily accessible now with this tiny device.

    This is my second Seagate for two (2) different computers. Love the slim design, so it doesn't take much room - Have it hooked up to my docking station.
