    mechanically ok software poor

    I have had it a week mechanically so far it is fine. However the software that you install with it takes up 1/2 GB memory, very unacceptable. It puts me in the position to do manual back ups. I wanted to have it set for continuous back but with using this much memory that is not possible. Also if you turn the Seagate dash board program off at the tasks bar, guess what it still runs in the background and 3 separate programs. I would not recommend due to the software.

    I had previously bought one of these and needed to have a duplicate one for backup at work. Works great, quick speed with the USB 3.0 port.

    Bought this for my dad and it is great for automatic back ups and knowing your pics and videos are safe in another place.

    As advertised, nothing special. Downside is the external power required.
