Large photo files take up a lot of memory! I ordered this drive to get more room. I ordered it specifically because it advertised that it works for Apple or Microsoft which suggested to me that it works for Linux (the operating system or OS that I prefer). Well it works just fine. I wish more companies would be brave enough to better accommodate Linux users like me and brag about it when they do.

Worked great out of the box, no hiccups backing up my files

The drive is overall amazing, incredibly small, and not too loud. The only issue is that it can be quite slow. I only got up to 50 MB/S write speed sequential, so I wouldn’t recommend running an OS on it as I did, you should use an SSD instead.

I’ve been using this drive for about 2 weeks, and so far I like it with some reservations. It’s relatively quiet and the r/w speeds are on par with the competition. The only thing I don’t like about this drive (so far) is the lack of rubber feet… it tends to slide around on metal surfaces (like when sitting on top of your case). Over the past 7 years, I’ve purchased about two dozen WD My Passport drives, and came to discover they have a tendency to fail at around the 2-3 year mark. After the last recent failure, I decided to give Seagate a try, so we’ll see how this drive lasts. As a side note, I think any moving platter technology should be considered portable temporary storage, and not a backup. I may eventually move to SSD drives as the capacities increase

I use mine to back up the scan files from a system running Windows XP 32 bit with no problems and the Windows 10 machine reads it just fine too.

Great drive no problems

I saw this good price and purchased because it was bus powered. Copies very fast with no problems what so ever. Helped me tremendously transferring from old computer 2015 to new Super PC 2020 with out any problems. These drives would make great gifs of someone.

I purchased these for my wife as an archival backup of her graphics, videos, music and photos of immense sentimental value to her. She is so happy to know she now has a safety copy of what to her are priceless images.

Use it with my Macbook Pro for about 2 months now and happy with my purchase so far. Compact, quiet, relatively fast – everything I wanted. I had to format it to use with Mac OS X.
Gertrude Metz (verified owner) –
I’ve bought a few of these and most work just fine. However, one did freeze up and, after reformatting, it worked ok again. This meant I lost all the data I entered previously which was annoying.

The Seagate 2TB external hard drive is perfect for our needs as a backup. It very much plug and play, much the same as a flash drive would be but so nice not to be concerned about enough storage. It is a little bigger than a 3×5 index card and about 1/2 inch thick. With a price of $55, you can’t go wrong.
Thea Haley (verified owner) –
This is probably the best option for backup on a low budget drive. I bought several and I haven’t had one of them die or crash.
Ora Volkman (verified owner) –
I love Seagate hard drives, they are a reliable brand at good prices.
Horace Prohaska (verified owner) –
Best value for money
Annetta Brekke (verified owner) –
There are better and faster external drives, but I have three of these and have never had a problem that I didn’t cause myself. I would recommend them for a stationary situations such as I have in my studio.
Darien Rutherford (verified owner) –
This unit is quiet and works well with my system.
Triston Mohr (verified owner) –
This was just what I needed to store all of my photos and free up space on my computer.
