    I need to back up all my notes while I switch from one EHR to another. This does the job for me and give me extra room if I need it.

    I bought this primarily for my PS4 as 500gb wasn't sufficient enough! Installation is easy and I'm able to install/run games from the drive no problem!

    So far so good. The hdd is to light with hard smoth finish. This may be a disadvantage because even with a slight movent to the very stif cable, the hdd slides over the desktop surface. In the other hand, this finish makes easy to take it out of some tights pockets.

    This is a great addition to my MBP. I use this for my time machine backups when I am away from the network. Just adds a little bit of peace of mind that my data is backed up.

    The Seagate - Backup Plus 2TB External USB 3.0/2.0 Portable Hard Drive is a very simple to use backup system. Sure beats using the thumb drives I've been using.

    Received hard drive, and was surprised how small it was. About the size of an iPhone. I haven't used it much, but when I have, everything worked perfectly.

    This is a good product for quick and easy backups of files from your computer. It is lightweight, it only uses power from the USB port and fit for use anywhere such as studying in a coffee shop or checking files at an airport and have the need to backup the data

    I originally bought this external hard drive for my computer, but after downloading games to my xbox one console I needed additional storage. So i used the external hard drive for my game console instead of my computer. It was a great investment at a decent price.
