    The unit can be finicky at time as the computer sometimes does not recognize the unit and power must be recycled.

    PC or Mac (or like I did, the Netgear router) - Just plug it in, and you're in business. Great product.

    This backup is good but has only one issue. Need to plug into an outlet for power instead of being able to power it through the USB.

    I am pleased overall (initially) with the drive, but have a couple of concerns. The back-up program that accompanies the drive is not very user friendly and there has been one instance when I thought I have backed up a drive (my desktop, actually) when the folder is later described as "empty." I have yet determined if this was the result of something I did, or a flaw in the instructions, or a glitch in the program.

    No issues thus far. Charging ports less valuable than I thought (used rather rarely) but that is no fault of the device.

    Tried other brands before, and had difficulty. Seagate seems to be the most reliable.
