    I haven't used this hard drive yet, but Best Buy is hassling me to write a review. It might not work at all, but the professionalism and care that Seagate took in packaging it, instills in me the assumptive confidence that it's able to perform when I need it.

    What more can I say than it is small, easy to set up and I HOPE I never have to use it to restore files due to any e-crash.
