    Small and easy to travel with. They told me I could just plug it in and prompts come up to tell what to do. Well that was not accurate. I ended up calling a friend who is great with computers to show me what to do.

    I was told by one of the employees that I could store pictures and videos on this but I cannot it is literally only for back up and you can't put too much on it and you have to dump it every once in a while I guess it's good for a back up

    I find the instructions very poor for a non tech person. Read, went up online at Seagate, and have not been able to BACKUP computer AND download to Seagate. Very, Very USER UNFRIENDLY.

    I backed up my data, documents and photographs, on this unit. Rechecked after downloading and all info was saved. A week later when I tried to put the info into a computer, I could hear a loud noise coming from the Seagate and no info could be found. I tried 3 different computers and even had an IT person try to find my info, but my info was gone -- all of it!! I had read reviews on this unit and none were good. Too bad I didn't follow their advice. Never again!

    I purchased this external hard drive for my macbook. I downloaded it, and when it restarted, my macbook wouldn't even recognize it. I plugged it in the different usb ports and nothing. I had to return it.

    Good product, but we had to download a few things in order for the driver to be recognized on the laptop. Prefer one that is already set up, and the driver doesn't need to be downloaded.
