Portable hard drive gets the job done

Terrible external hard drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would never ever buy a Seagate product again. It's not at all user friendly, doesn't back up the data it says it's backing up. It takes tweaking and lots of patience to even get it to work. The WD drive it replaced was easy to use and worked perfectly for the 5 years I used it--still working, but I needed a lot more storage space. Seagate offers no useful support, is a shoddy product--cheaply made and even though I finally managed to get it to work, I have no faith that it will stand the test of time. Do not purchase a Seagate drive.

It works!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took 8 hours to back up my 312 GB linux partition. Not a real problem, but I'd hoped for better. Happy anyway. Know nothing about whatever software is included, we're using linux.

Perfect storage backup for my daughter's Mac

High capacity storage for the price, but SLOW
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've generally been happy with Seagate's products in the past, but this drive transfered data very slow, even over USB 3.0. I connected the drive to two different computers, and on both the transfer speeds were horrible Both computers computers have SATA III SSDs from Samsung, so I know the slow transfer speed is the Seagate's fault.

Affordable Storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works exactly as described. However I have registered it at least 10 times with Seagate and every time I boot my system it asks to register the device.
