Just plug ‘n play. I use it with Lightroom for my tens of thousands of images. It seems a good option if you’re looking for a portable backup device.

I am WD guy first, I bought Seagate because of a better price. But so far so good, no problem with Seagate.

It’s plenty big enough for what I want. I wish it was a little faster. Price was right.

I bought this as an off-site Time Machine backup for our four MacBooks. It is very compact and works well as a small backup that fits in our fire safe. The performance is great.

Hard Drive works well like I new it would. Small footprint. Lots of capacity in a small space. Simple design. Unobtrusive. Happy with it.

In my opinion, Seagate makes the best drives, and this device is worthy of the Seagate name. It’s extremely lightweight and portable so you can take it anywhere. The 2TB storage provides plenty of capacity and the USB 3.0 connectivity is uber fast! This portable drive does not disappoint!

These are very reliable hard drives, great for video/audio work. I’m hoping they can increase size to 5TB+, until they make the SSD drives cheaper.

Well what can you say about a hard drive? It works, and it stores things adequately. 🙂 I have never had an issue with any of my Seagate drives. And I’ve had enough for one or two issues to be expected. But these just do what I need them to and they do it well. Guess that’s about all I can say about it.

I bought this to use as DVR storage for an AirTV2 in part because there was a really good deal on it and in part because it was certified to work with the product. The AirTV2 is only USB 2.0 so speed is not really an issue for my purpose. The drive operates fine with the AirTV2 and is whisper quiet so I’m happy.

These hard drives feel cheap. I hope they last. I wouldn’t trust them with anything important. I guess you get what you pay for
