    This product is no where near as easy to use as the click free. It does not start automatically it's tricky to save and recover just a certain section of the drive. Stay with click free.

    No complaints. Brought this along for some extra power on a trip to NYC. I never had to recharge it and it still has some power leftover on it.

    Had it for years, still works fine. The cable is a little delicate though, but that's the nature of this type cable.

    Got a great deal on this. I always back up my computer in two places. I back up to a hard drive and then back the hard drive up to a cloud.

    With possession of a mac laptop for school, it is essential to have a reliable backup system such the Seagate external hard drive.

    My WD passport died and I did some research before deciding on this one. So far it works great and is noticeably quieter than the WD.

    It could use a better system for drivers to be loaded. Please read instructions, as you have to go to a website to download drivers before your device can recognize it. This is why I gave it 4 stars not 5.
