So far, so good. Drive replaces a former media drive. Only time will tell if it makes a good choice for backups.

I already have a Seagate 2tb external I use with my Xbox . I bought this one when I filled the 2tb up. Have had 0 problems and will eventually move everything over to this drive. Very happy with my purchase.

I needed extra storage for my digital photography and this met my need. Easy hookup and very fast using USB 3! It also has a small footprint - mine just sits on top of my computer tower. Highly recommended.

It can be confusing if you are not computer savvy. I didn't give up and managed to figure it out. I feel better knowing my files are backed-up and I can take them with me if I like. I chose Seagate because it has a good reputation from other sources that I've researched.
