    I bought this to replace a Western Digital that was still working fine, but not enough space. It's a very fast backup device, and the space is plenty for my needs. I highly recommend.

    This drive is now a Time Machine back up for our macs. It works as advertised, allows us to not worry about manually archiving anything. It isn't blazing fast, but its no slouch, either.

    So far so good, pretty straight forward portable hardrive. Pretty slim for it's capacity, design looks good. Just gotta wait and see if it will hold up pretty long. This is a back up to my back up external hard drive, so hopefully it will retain it's performance.

    Seagate is a trusted brand and the amount of extra space comes in handy. Connects to both my CPU and game devices.

    It is not always easy to use the same product for windows 10 and Apple products. This worked great to back up both computers. You can also let it plugged in to do auto backups.

    This is a slim and sleek storage device. I definitely suggest getting a case for this because dropping it just once would not be good.

    USB 3.0 is super fast. If you have large photos this is the best device to backup. Wirecutter highly recommends it

    External hard drives have come a long way since their introduction. For the price, this thing is amazing. You can even plug it into your wireless network and use it like a cloud.

    I actually bought 2 of these (1 black & 1 white); I backup all my data on these easily portable drives and keep them "off-site" in case anything ever happens to my primary residence.
