terrible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not able to transfer pictures from this device to my computer. I contacted customer service and they were not helpful. I do however have some documents and pictures saved on it, so I suppose it wasn't a total waste of money

Not working with Linksys Router
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fine backup for my pc, but not for all the other devices that could be backedup through my Linksys router. Some FAT Format contention that is between Seagate and Linksys. Disappointing, but can still back up manually.

visit to the Geek Squad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After downloading this product I had computer issues. Unsure if it's related to the hard drive but hopefully I will see. Question: how do you know if all the files really downloaded without applying it to another computer.

Wouldnt trust my important files to it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It didnt last that much and it started having trouble until now it takes so long to read stuff. I really dont know whats wrong with it. i had about 1.3TB of data in it so i bought a new 4 TB drive to back it up. it took the drive almost a week of copying files even though i was using usb 3.1 connections. it was painfully slow and some files had been damaged. i am going to shuck the drive and see if wiping it fixes it so i can use it as an internal drive for whatever but i would never use it a main drive or to store valuable things.

okay backup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The backup works as intended. However, there is no way to limit the number of automated backups so the drive can actually fill up after a few months of backups. It is good that it is only USB powered.

Didn't work...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product didn't work and I had to take it back to the store and exchange it for one that did work. Unfortunately I couldn't get the red one that I had ordered because the store didn't carry the red one.

Works... but
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great price but is not plug and play for Mac users which is strange as it is not just a formatting issue which would be an easy fix. You need to download seagate software !!!

Too messy for automatic sync on Mac
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is not a plug and play hard drive. Adding the feature of auto sync when the file changes required complicated steps for required software installation.

not very happy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted just a normal portable external hard drive, easy and fast to use...but this one you have to install it, do for every pc you need to waste some time in order to use it.

Complicated
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Slim and sleek, but VERY COMPLICATED setup with Apple products. Compatible but not easy especially if you don’t have specific computer skills.

Need an External hard drive this is the one!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this External Hard drive to back up my lap top. It's easy as 1 2 3 no problems. just plug it in and it's up and running. small and thin. caring it with you no problem,it fits in my pants pocket. Best thing besides as easy as 1 2 3, no power cord it uses the usb for power. you don't need to carry a power cord with you.!! just the hard drive and the usb cord. It's everything I was looking for in a hard drive with 2.0 and 3.0 usb. 2 of my friends bought 1 and they love it also. You will too.

ehhh
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This external hard drive works fine but there are no feet on the bottom, so it slides all over your desk and when placed on top of your laptop.
