Description
Small enough for a loaded laptop bag yet spacious enough for loads of content, the black 2TB Backup Plus Slim USB 3.0 External Hard Drive from Seagate combines portability with useful file storage. Formatted as exFAT and compatible with Windows and Mac right out of the box, this drive connects to systems running Windows 7 and higher or macOS 10.11 and higher using its micro-USB port and an included 18" micro-USB to USB Type-A cable that is compatible with USB 3.0 and USB 2.0. It is powered via the USB bus, which means that no additional power supplies are required, and also features plug-and-play functionality, meaning that no additional drives are required for use.
Also included with Backup Plus Slim is downloadable Toolkit Backup Software, which lets you backup on demand, schedule automatic backups, and mirror folders for file management. Take advantage of a 1-year subscription to Mylio Create to organize your photos and protect, edit, share, and sync them across multiple devices, and use a 2-month subscription to Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography Plan to edit and create using Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC.

I consider this an absolute necessity to back up all my files and photos. I admit I have issues with the security of the cloud. If someone can hack the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the cloud can be hacked.

No explanation why this should happen. Completely light usage – plugged into computer for nightly backup. Junk.
Salvatore Bailey (verified owner) –
Small, slim and stylish. Easy to format and use. I bought two of them for my Mac and love them.

This hard drive is perfect for backing up my photos.

Purchased for a single place to store and retrieve family photos, works like a charm.
Arielle Dach (verified owner) –
I have been using this hard drive sparingly because it’s extremely slow on every device. It can take days to finish backing up files. Not sure if I just got one that was damaged, but it’s terrible unfortunately.
Henriette Kautzer (verified owner) –
Slim, stylish and great speed. I carry these little drives when I am travelling and it’s perfect for backing up the photos from my laptop.
Maxine Jacobs (verified owner) –
If you have a Mac, it’s easy to use. Easy to set up. Easy to partition for Storage and Backup. Not pricey. I got two just in case
Germaine Pfannerstill (verified owner) –
This is the fourth or fifth one of these drives that I have purchased, and I have always found them to work flawlessly.
Gardner Hagenes (verified owner) –
Just plug it in and pronto.
Wade Hartmann (verified owner) –
Super compact, well designed, and seems fast so far. Using for Time Machine backups on my MacBook Air, and trouble-free so far. Had one customer service question, and Seagate response was fast and complete.
Kattie Hoppe (verified owner) –
I got this to use to back up my Mac pc. It is doing an excellent job. I have another one that I use just for storage.

We’re an event video production company, and we rely on these, and similar Seagate drives (different capacity or colors) for archival upgrades we sell to our clients. It’s hard to love a drive – best I can say is we haven’t experienced any failures – unlike other brands we’ve tried.
Eunice Wolf (verified owner) –
I have several Seagate Backup drives and they have always been reliable.
Abby Howe (verified owner) –
I can take the Seagate everywhere. It allows me to save my file.
Sheridan Reichel (verified owner) –
I always have good luck with Seagate products. The Seagate 2 TB Hard Drive is preforming just as I expected. Would recommend to anyone.
Vivianne Hammes (verified owner) –
Very convenient as a storage for files/photos/videos and for traveling. It is formatted as exFAT (so one can use on bot Windows and Mac computers). However, I would recommend to use either NTFS for Windows or APFS for Mac since exFAT is vulnerable to corruption when the HDD is not properly unmounted or disconnected.

works great and easy to install
Nia Kuhic (verified owner) –
This handsome slim drive performs data backups quickly and accurately. It takes very little room on a desk and its size makes it easily portable for travel. The Toolkit software functions well, although the scheduled backup time seems to be ignored. Will troubleshoot this and I have confidence in the Seagate brand and quality.
