    This is my second Seagate Backup Plus. The first was purchased as a backup for my previous HP desktop PC. I was very satisfied with its performance. In fact, I'm still using it with my HP laptop. My new PC is an iMac Pro. It required a backup formatted for a Mac, so I chose a Seagate, again. It's working fine

    I bought this product because my previous external hard drive decided to no longer work. I never wanted to get another one because I loved my old one. But when I looked into this one, it was EVERYTHING I was looking for! Great buy! Amazing product!

    The installation of the Seagate Backup Plus for Mac was simple, and connected immediately without any problems. I wish there was a way to change the frequency of the backup - some may want more frequent backups, others may need less.

    My last backup HD crashed, possibly because I partitioned it in half, but possibly because of malware infected the drive via Time Machine - or both. Both this drive is super fast right out of the box and saves my critical business files in a flash. Highly recommended.

    I had previously purchased a different hard drive and then realized it would only work on my PC. So I bought this one and it works with my Mac and it was incredibly easy to install and backs up in the background. I would recommend it to anyone.
