    Got the external drive on Black Friday for a good deal. Have only moved a portion of my files to it but so far works as it should.

    An improvement over earlier models, which were already good. More silent than before, nice transfer speeds and a decent warranty.

    I bought this to add memory to my Xbox1. It has added so much room that I no longer have to delete games to download another game.

    These hard drives are perfect for my school work and projects. Although it says 2TB on the box you can expect to get 1.81TB for use, which is not bad. Fast and quite. Great for what I need them for, plus Seagate makes great hard drives.

    We use these types of hard drives in film production for short file transfers. They work great, and are fairly universally accepted.

    It does exactly what it is supposed to do. It has built in security measures but still allows you to use it on multiple computers.

    Wanted a small hard drive to back up photos, music and videos. One that was small enough to fit into a fireproof lockable safe. This works great, just plug it in and start moving your files into it. Will hold many years of memories to come. And it's simple for anyone to use.
