    There are smart phones bigger that this. I backed up my entire hard drive on 5% of the capacity. Rapid data transfer.

    I've used Seagate slim portable drives for years and I've stuck with them as they've been very robust and reliable. I got this one to take advantage of USB 3.0 on my new MacBook Air. What a difference! Transfers are 10X faster than USB 2.0 on my old MBA.

    The size of the drive is great. The drive itself keeps on losing connection with the computer. I need to unplug and plug it back in again every couple of days.

    I bought this to supplement the storage of my Xbox One. Runs off of USB power so no extra AC plug needed. Pretty simple to install: plug the drive cord into a USB port in the back, restart the console and it should identify it. You can name it and select which drive you want things to be saved to.

    I bought this to backup my laptop and other external hard drives. It has worked well, is a small case, doesn't require an external power supply and syncs quickly. What's not to like? The cost was also very competitive with the other options I saw and Seagate has a decent reputation so I hope it lasts.
