    documentation by the manufacturer is minimal. Previous seagate backup disk had good log that showed much more detail and was easier to understand.

    I cannot find the backup on the Seagate when I go into it online. My computer tells me that there was a full backup, and yet I am unable to find the files on the device. When I purchased my computer, I was sold a "travel hub" although I had told the salesrep that I would be plugging items in on a regular basis (my laptop has only one UBS port and I regularly need more than one). However, when the Geek Squad tech installed my new Seagate, he told me I would have to purchase another device to dock all my peripherals including my Seagate in the computer. He also told me that it would be OK to unplug the Seagate and only plug it in when it was time to backup. I am frustrated with this devise and not giving much confidence to whether my computer is backed up correctly. There is also a one hour wait if I go online to "chat" with a Geek tech and then to get service. I would rather talk to someone and get answers and remote help that way. Not sure if I made a mistake purchasing the Geek Squad service. This is my first time; in the past I dealt with Dell directly and never had a problem communicating with them.
