I always turn to Seagate whether I'm looking for Back-Up or storage solutions. I find their products to be weld made, well designed and efficient. I've never experienced a problem with their products - I trust the Seagate name to protect my most important data.

I have been using Seagate drives for several years. I have never had a bad experience with any of there drives internal or external. My first external drive died on me about a month ago but I put it through severe heavy data backup for several years before this happened. I tried a WD My Book, had it boxed back up in 30 minutes and waited for the perfect Seagate external 3TB backup drive and got it, and like always runs smooth as silk and quiet and dependable. Thank you Seagate...!!!

I purchased this because I did not want all of my files backed up to the cloud. For the price, this backup has a ton of storage space and is very easy to set up and use. I have not used it for my phone yet, but you can also back up several media items. For first time use, simply plug up, allow the software to load, follow the set ups and transfer your files. After file transfers, it's narrow enough to store away some place cool that does not take up much space as it's only a couple of inches wide. Plug it up once a week to back up your files and you are all set. Wonderful purchase and cheaper than some of the cloud rates over the long term.
