    My first Seagate crashed after 1 day. Best Buy replaced no questions asked. New Seagate is working like a charm. The software is very easy to use.

    There was no printed manual for product to help in the set up. I purchased b/c I needed to free up space to work. since there was no free work space on the computer I could not download the information. I think most of my issues were user related. I had another Seagate product before this one and it worked great. I think once I get set-up fully this will be good as well.

    Set up was easy, continuous backup, I haven't tried to retrieve anything yet, but did go in to storage to see if everything was there. Seems to run even if nothing has changed.

    The drive works fine as a backup drive, however it should not be use as a secondary drive. It is too slow for that.

    Huge, clunky, requires a power cord to use. I'm not sure why anyone would buy this over the portable version, but I guess it would still work fine.

    The Seagate I bought is pretty good. Good for "cold storage" of system images.
