    I purchased this to provide extra storage for the SSD drive in my laptop, and for it's portability. It fits easily in my computer bag, works quickly and quietly wherever I take it. The best external hard drive I've used.

    In the era of digitalization, I am falling short of space quite ofter and always look out for external USB drives. This item I bought during thanksgiving sale and impressed with the performance so far, can be used simultaneously in Mac OS and windows too.

    The only thing that could make this any better is if I could use it with my ipad or android devices. Or my not smart tv that does not have drivers or software but does have usb.

    This is my 2nd Seagate backup drive. The first was smaller and I filled it up. It is a great comfort to know that I have all my pictures and music backed up. The only issue is it is not Vista combatable. But it worked great with my windows 7 computer.
