    Used it to make room on my internal hard drives, worked great, seems fast even at USB 2 speeds, faster transfer than a flash drive. No problem playing video from the drive. Has a backup program that comes with it but didn't use. May buy another one for auto backup.

    This is a great external drive, especially if you can find it on sale. You can also use this to replace the hard drive in a PS4, which is what I used it for.

    I always use Seagate for my photo backup - easy to use and just plug it in. I gave 4 stars because I am struggling to transfer the pictures off of my MacBook laptop so once I can figure that out - I will re-evaluate.

    I use this drive to hold all of my photography data. It has very good speed and is very durable. While I never recommend dropping a hard drive, it will handle the everyday mobile computing bumps and jostles just fine. Also, the mobile backup feature is a bonus.
