    Worth the money. I read a lot of reviews before I make any purchases and overall, I would recommend this item. Easier to use with Mac than most other ones out there. Simple plug and play.

    My son-in-law said it was just fine for what he wanted. We had 2 purchases, one was the charger pad for his phone. The other was the external hard drive. He is getting great use from both.

    USB 3.0 external 2 TB backup disk provides fast backups of important files, small size lets you carry it with you or securely lock it away. Bought 2 so I would have rotating backups.

    I bought two of these. One of them was for backing up my PS4, and the other one to take apart to put in the PS4. Both of them did their job perfectly. Now I have a 2tb hard drive in my PS4!

    I bought this portable drive to back up and transfer files from one computer to another. I also needed to have an alternative location to store my iPhoto library. This drive is small and works out great.

    This is an awesome storage for all of my photos. Computers can crash and sometimes you lose everything. This was amazing for the price and how much it can hold.

    I had larger desk top hard drives that failed within 6 months. This portable back up drive continues to function flawlessly after almost two years and can go anywhere when traveling.

    Bought this external HDD to replace the internal HDD in my PS4; It's a more affordable option than buying the internal model; just crack open the casing for the actual HDD & you're good to go.

    Loved the HD. I was thinking about buying a Western Digital but did not like it being so bulky and heavy. I love the fact that it's so slim and the quality of it. First Seagate product and loved it. Thanks!

    The Seagate external portable hard drive is great. It is small enough to take with me when I am away from the office and it has been backing up my work just like I had hoped it would.
