    I needed a backup harddrive that would connect to my wireless hub, and this did the trick. This is the first Seagate drive that I have purchased, and it has worked without any problems.

    I put 44,000. MP3's on here and sent it to my pops in NC! He loves it! I gave him an iPod classic too! He is 70 and is like a kid in a candy store. No! Wait! It's like me in Best Buy!

    I bought this for my Photos Library about a month ago and so far so good. I had trouble formatting it for my Mac but Seagate customer service was very helpful and answered my call quickly.

    I got this at a discount, but I would not recommend it at full price. It holds your computer hostage for about 12 hours. If that's not not supposed to be the case, that's how mine behaves and the troubleshooting is beyond my admittedly minimal skill level, as well as my patience with the poorly written instructons/guide.

    I thought the copy process from my old PC would take a long time. I was surprised at how fast the copies went and that it was completely accurate. I'm relieved I finally made this purchase.

    I use the Seagate Backup Plus Slim drive for backing up photos of family, and use it between a couple of computers. It does the job and is fairly quick copying large folders of photos.

    Bought this instead of the green colored Xbox one and it saved me at least 10 bucks. Only wish I would have bought the largest drive to make sure I have enough room for a longer time.

    Formatted this drive with a recent Macbook Pro 13 and has been working great. Connected this drive to the new design late 2013 Mac Pro and the drive has numerous problems. It hangs on access of the drive, so I would not recommend this drive for cross-mac usage.

    This product does exactly what it says. I got is to use as a extra space for my xbox one. All games Run good on it if not faster than off my Xbox alone. For the price you can't beat it.
