    I purchased the seagate about a year and a half ago to work with my MacBook Air. It worked beautifully up until about two weeks ago when out of nowhere it kept crashing on me. None of the software that I found in their website worked to clear any issues and ultimately I lost what I had on there. Now it’ll cost be about the price of a new drive to send it out to seagate for a “fix”. I’ll just have to give in and lose whatever was on the drive...

    For the most part this drive has worked well. On one occasion, the data was no longer readable. I had to reformat and start again. If this is your only backup - make sure you have another. Back ups fail too. t
