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. The drive's compatibility with various USB versions and its suitability for backup purposes are also frequently highlighted.

    Replaced inferior router (weak signal) rented from internet provider. This is a better router, better signal and eliminated monthly rental fee. Easy to install and setup.

    A good external hard drive. Not an expert, but it works as described. No issues with it during the time that I've had it.

    Device is exactly what I needed. The only drawback to it was that the directions were not clearly marked that there was a different set of directions for MAC.

    I bought this on 11/12/12. I stared to make noise this year. Now it's totally dead. I lost everything. I heard Seagate hard drive has class lawsuit against them since they had high risk failure ratio.

    Worst Drive I have

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have three external drives. I bought this one to serve as my main backup. It is by far the slowest external drive I own. Even with the USB3 connection it's extremely slow and I'm sorry I bought it.
