    It's small and very versatile. I can use it to transfer pictures to my wife's pc and use it to back up my MacBook Pro. Also, the price was great.

    Haven't actually used this particular unit yet. But, it's Seagate. Have no reason to believe it will be anything less than expected.

    I purchase the external hard drive after purchasing a Mac Air which had little memory space. It was comparable with Apple and was easy to use.

    Overall, its a good product, but could use improvement on its software. It appears to be set up for amateur users, simply plug in and backup, but advanced users who want more control of backup features may become frustrated.
