I was recommended to use this as my back up storage device. It worked, but I have not honestly had the need to use this. Which is a good thing, because that means my computer has not crashed!

Honestly I bought this external drive specifically to replace my PS4’s existing hard drive. I can now store more DLC and media, as well as digital copies of games, freeing-up physical space at home. Truth be told, I will be swapping this 2TB out for a better one as soon as SSD prices drop.

Using it as a backup for my Mac. Works good, reasonably fast data transfer. Fortunately I have not had to restore my PC to date. Hopefully will never have to find out if the rostral works.

I work as a video producer, so I'm constantly needing drive space to transfer and/or pass along HD video files and projects... Bought this drive for that very purpose, and it worked like a champ.

The Seagate hard drives are not automatically formatted to your APPLE and can give you a bit of a hard time if you are switching computers. Reliability has improved over the years (I hope!)

Did a lot of comparison prior to choosing this item. Needed extra hard drive space for our PS4. Works great and comes with the chord.

This is a great and inexpensive way to upgrade the hard drive space on an XBOX One S. This more than Quadruples the space and is powered by the USB. Very small form factor is a plus as well.

I bought this portable drive to back up and transfer files from one computer to another. I also needed to have an alternative location to store my iPhoto library. This drive is small and works out great.
