How can you beat this price for a 1 TB drive. Also the format is a lot smaller then some of the previous 1 TB drives I have bought in the past.

I've used Seagate portable drives for a while with no problems. Some of my Seagates have been used for nearly 3 years heavily. Great drive.

This seagate external drive is just what I needed to back up files from my Macbook Pro. The drive is very small and quiet...and has same matte aluminum finish as the Macbook.

I've only had it for a couple weeks but I hooked it up to my nighthawk router to wirelessly back up my Mac daily. Has worked great so far.

I plugged this into my Mac Mini and it just flat out works as my back-up. I move it to my wife's Mac Book Pro and it does not miss a beat.

My husband and I both have Mac Book Pros for our personal use. We got this for back up. We used it on both our Macs to backup our data. Very easy to install and transfer data. Only glitch we have is it wants me to register it on my Mac, when my husband has already registered it on his.

I have three seagate drives. A 500 GB and 1 TB for my mac and a 500 GB for my work computer. They all have worked flawlessly. Just plug in and copy stuff over to store. Never an issue. Just make sure to buy the one for a Mac or a PC, depending on your system. Mac's cannot write to the PC drive without jumping through some hoops with the storage language.
