    I got this drive because it had the highest storage capacity at the lowest price and it's been reliable. I'd buy another one.

    I like the slim design; it works relatively fast; holds a lot. I had trouble with a previous drive when I couldn't unload it properly from my Macbook, so make sure the drive is disconnected completely before unplugging it (not sure if that was the computer or the drive that had the problem).

    I have a 1 TB seagate that i use for backup and it works great. I bought the 2TB fr my music colection. Small size and large capacity is perfect for my music to be portable. I did not even have to reformat to use on a mac. Another great product from Seagate.

    This is a great device for saving lots of data on something other than the computer hard drive. We save our photos on the Seagate. It's easy to access and easy to disconnect when it's not needed. It's small and doesn't require a lot of space on the desk when it's in use.

    Great Backup

    Good speed for a HDD backup. I like the portability and light weight. The slim design means it'll fit almost anywhere and the space allows for my entire music and picture library. For the price, good backup, but if you're looking for speed go with a SSD. HDD just doesn't offer the same performance. Overall, a good buy!

    The hard drive on my DVR went bad, so I needed to save my old recordings. This Seagate hard drive was perfect for the job and I was able to use it with the Dish Network DVR. It was easy to use and I transferred the recordings from the old DVR to the Seagate hard drive with no problem.
