    It's exactly what I was looking for to back up our IMac. Storage size compared to the cost was good. The drive is compact and easy to use.

    Great gadget to own. I needed a simple solution for my enormous media files and I found what really performs without the hassle of ripping your wallet apart. Looking forward to own a portable storage like this with greater capacity soon... :)

    love this drive - i keep important pictures and docs over several external drives and keep one off site in case of a disaster at home. I love the ease of use and have several of these for different files - personal and work.

    After replacing my internal hard drive on my '08 era iMac, I decided it was time to go with an external drive to back up the new one. It was pretty simple and easy. No issues so far and it has been running for over a month now.

    First purchased a wireless back-up device, but returned it because I could not get it to work. I then went with the Seagate device which is designed to use with a Mac. Simple and quick to set-up and works just fine with the Mac Time Machine. I have a Macbook Air.

    I am a teacher and typically use my macbook pro for most of my work. However, there are certain programs needed by teachers that are not available on mac platform. I bought this external to go between the operating systems and it works flawlessly. I spoke with the guys at the geek squad counter before the purchase and they said it would be fine. This works great for between platform use due to its formatting. Would also be great as a backup hard drive as well. Very small and easy to pack in a backpack.

    Purchased to backup a new Mac notebook with time machine. Works just fine. Was "plug and play." No hassles. Like the fact that it is powered through USB.
