Out of the box this hard drive is unique and has a nice look and feel to it. The touch aspect of the item name is to distinguish the fabric layer on the front of the drive case. Pretty nice to make it stand out from the crowd. The fabric is similar to what you’d see on an Amazon echo type of speaker. It’s a small and easy to hold and carry hard drive. Measuring in at about 4.5 inches tall and 3 inches wide. Approximately 5 ounces so it’s easy to keep in my laptop bag or also my jacket if I’m traveling real light. The hard drive has a lot of storage space with the 1 terabyte. Plenty enough for me as I’m using it mainly as a back up of pictures and files from my laptop to keep that fairly clean. Having so many pictures stored up over the years and tax documents...I needed to store them on here. The Seagate hard drive made transferring data super easy and fast with my usb 3.0 connection. It also comes with a usb-c connector as well. Was able to get approximately 5 gigabits per second transfer which made sending my years of iPhone pics over to the drive a breeze. Loving the fact this hard drive has a 256 bit encryption built in to give me some peace of mind that my data is safely stored away for my eyes only. Nice feature to have and Seagate makes this drive stand apart from competitors by offering this in my point of view. Setting this up out of the box is easy and really plug-n-play. I have a windows 10 laptop and the Run file walks me through the setup process. I think this drive is fantastic to store your personal files since it’s compact and easy to use. I can’t imagine how many years of pictures I’ll be putting on this thing over time but I know I don’t have to worry about running out of space any time soon. 1TB is way more than I would need but I’m thankful to have all the extra space. Knowing I have the space to store more files and that they are encrypted makes me feel comfortable with sending more and more to this drive. I’ll be using the backup feature later this week provided by the Toolkit software that came with the hard drive to perform hard drive backups as well. It wants to make my life easier and digitally protected and I’m all for it. Get this if you’re looking for a reasonably priced and quality branded hard drive for your home or business needs.

Plugged it in and it took off. The last hard drive back up I had required me to install software that took forever and was clunky. Not this one. This sleek, palm sized back up is a one stop shop for everything under 1 TB, and with its continuous backup option its a solid winner in this category in my opinion. If there was one super small thing I would change, it would be to provide a small canvas carry case with the purchase. Aside from the above suggestion, this back up is solid, sleek and able to back up everything i need to backup, and with its different time interval auto back up options this turns into a no-brainer.
