    I needed another external drive for my laptop and I got this on a good deal! 2TB is a great storage amount and Seagate always delivers on quality in my opinion! No issues and it's very helpful for backing up files when transferring to a new computer/OS. Plus, I also like how lightweight and quaint it is! It can easily fit anywhere and the USB cable is sturdy too.

    My laptop was on its last legs, and was severely underperforming compared to how it’s run for the last several years. I bought this as a last ditch attempt to try and keep my laptop going until Black Friday sales. It has run significantly smoother since purchasing this and should certainly make it to Black Friday where I’ll buy a PC and still use this external hard drive!

    Very easy to set up, decently small, the only issue is the length of the cord, which can cause issues of use depending on where you are required to plug it in

    Amazing and Flawless device. It's still the one I use today. I use it as my main hard drive over the computer one. Just leaving apps on the laptop. I love it and the price is right

    The Seagate 2TB external storage works great-super easy to set up, just plug it in and go. Plenty of space for my games and files, runs quiet, and transfers are smooth. Definitely worth it if you need extra storage.

    i desperately needed an external hard drive for all my videos and photos. Something that would keep all my personal values safe. Seagate nails it every time as this is my 2nd 2TB from them purchased at best buy. The sale they had, i couldn't resist the price.
