    I have bought previous external drives of this brand, all of them have work perfectly, of course just be sure to buy the one with the capacity you think might need. Excellent for media, music, photos, documents, etc.

    Nice Portable Hard Drive, But a CPU and Memory Hog

    In general, I have been happy with this unit. It is small, has adequate storage space, it is easy to plug and go, and it was available at a fair price. The only downside is that, if it does a back-up cycle (using Toolkit software) while I am doing other work on the computer, it has the tendency to suck up CPU and memory space and it will freeze up my computer. I now accommodate this by running the unit at night and unplugging it during the day, so that there is no competition. Not a perfect plan, but good enough while I investigate ways to expand the capability of my computer.

    Great Drive - Not Really "Blue"

    Drive is a great little backup device, but don't expect it to really look "Light Blue" as in the photos; if you hold it just right, you might see a slight hint of blue, but it basically appears silver.

    Got a new phone and decided that I should get an external hard drive so I can download and save all my photos from my old phone, rather than clog up my computer. Worked like a charm

    I was looking for a portable drive to transfer files from my PC to my Mac. Most of the drives require reformatting before being plugged into a different operating system. This one is compatible with both so you don't need to do anything extra.

    Bought something on Amazon that looked good but was poorly constructed and took forever to render files. I trust Best Buy and this product differently did what it was intended to.

    Nice product: easy to use, great capacity in a small format. Had a Seagate before this one, so did not need to install a new driver. Of note, my previous Seagate external drive still works fine years after purchase, so I am hopeful this one will last for years as well.

    Purchased this to use with my iMac and it works great. It's a plug and play drive which is very nice. I use it to store screen recordings of my classes and speed and write times are fast. Really nice design to match my desk and computer. This brand always provides me with great reliable products at a reasonable price.

    The Hard drive has excellent read/write speeds. It is super silent when in work and very lightweight. The outside has a dark red finish very elegant sturdy and well designed. I am using the drive as a back-up so it pays all the money it costs. Finally I would buy any Seagate product again. Highly recommended for archiving.

    This is one of the easiest backup devices to use. I have purchased three of them to back up my laptop. Keep two handy and one in the bank safety deposit box. They have performed great. I feel my data is well protected. No issues.
