Customers are saying
Customers commend the Backup Plus Desktop 3TB External USB 3.0/2.0 Hard Drive for its ample storage space, ease of use, and reliable performance, particularly with Time Machine. Many appreciate its excellent value for the price and quiet operation. While some users mention the need for a separate power supply and occasional heat generation, these concerns are relatively minor compared to the overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Big Drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used on Xbox One and noticed quite the performance increase when loading games. Moved all downloads to this drive and load times decreased by roughly 25 percent. Xbox one feels a little snappier. Make sure to use the port on the left side for USB 3 speeds.

super easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great and easy to use. I just wish it could run off the power if the PC. Not always easy to find an outlet close to a notebook PC, and the power cord is rather short.

Mostly Good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This external is really nice, however this is my second one. My first one had a manufacture malfunction and stopped working. It was still under the 1 year warranty so I was able to get it replaced. Best Buy was really helpful with getting the hard drive replaced for one that worked. Otherwise, I really like it.

The Seagate external hard drive does the job.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy installation with this external hard drive. It almost does it by itself. As for backing up files it does as I expect it to do by my schedule.

Have not really used this one much yet.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not used this one much yet. I am concerned with any drive I buy now about how long they will last. Having bought a number different external drives the last couple years, I have had poor life for most. One drive failed in six weeks. Prices are down, but so is life on some.

Good Hardware - Terrible Software interface
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My fifth Seagate external harddrive - the hardware has never failed me - the software interface is terrible. Really paused before buying yet another Seagate drive but I chose to endure the software and count on the excellent tech support to help me when it's needed.

Good fast drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a good fast drive with configurable features... Just be sure to install the included software. With it, you can set the sleep time and turn off the bright led. NO issues so far. External Power is required.

Seems like good value. Didn't work with Hopper.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this planning on using it as an external drive for my Dish Hopper. I couldn't get it to fully recognize the 3TB as the Hopper only supports 2TB. I should have done more research before purchasing. My fault. Otherwise the hard drive works fine.

3 terabytes- HUGE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.picked this up on sale, only about $100. can't have enough storage. Don't trust the "cloud" thing. would rather store stuff myself. I've got about 3 of these now and haven't had any problems at all. they run quietly and don't get hot. they make great Christmas presents too.

Did what we wanted
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this external to replace another one we were using for storing our movies digitally. The other drive was giving us difficulty accessing our movies remotely on our server. This one seems to serve as a pretty good replacement so far.
