    I bought this drive to use as a backup for all my files. Twice a week I back up everything on my PC. It was easy to install and I've had no issues so far! Great price for a ton of storage!

    I had another brand but after getting too many errors, I tried Seagate and so far its been relatively fast and error free. I noticed that its rpm is higher than other brands with the same capacity, and it was indeed a bit faster to use too. A few times, I have run into problems during backup and I had to redo the whole process, but most of them, its been okay. I would recommend it over other brands (at least until solid-state external storage drives becomes available with a reasonable price!).

    The Seagate is very compact, so you don't need a lot of room. It's very easy to use, whether you have your backups set up automatically or do them manually. You get a lot of memory for the price.

    This is one best storage products available. This drive holds about 400 DVDs for about $100. Backup and portable access that is inexpensive and works great. I have purchased my last 100 pack of blank DVDs!

    I was looking for an inexpensive medium capacity hard drive and this fit the bill nicely. The first thing I did was delete the software that comes on the disk. For a user like me, it was more annoying than helpful. I would give it 5 stars but if it fails on me within a year then it will have been a complete waste.
