This hard drive provides a storage capacity of up to 2TB and connects to your host system using its micro-USB 3.0 interface, which also provides bus power using an included USB 3.0 cable, meaning that no external power is required. Copy and saving data is easy – simply drag and drop. Also included is Seagate’s Rescue Data Recovery Services.
Please note that reformatting may be required for use with Apple’s Time Machine. Also, Rescue Data Recovery Services is not available in all countries.

I’ve had many of these little Seagate portable drives. They are great because they are bus powered and do not need an additional power supply. Just plug in the USB cable and go. Plus this drive is extrememly fast with the USB 3 connector. Very fashionable, too. Much better performance than the previous iteration. Buy this one!

Out of the box, this is absolutely the slowest drive I’ve ever owned. 19 hours to transfer 1TB of photos and it kept freezing. Tried transferring same files to a 2 TB Seagate drive and it took less than 2 hours. Not certain if this specific one is a defective drive or if all the 5TB’s are this slow….

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.

Easy plug n play. Was able to start full backup within minutes. Might need to buy another since this one was a gift for my hubby (and he won’t share)!

Only just received it and it works fine. Comparatively speaking works as well as the two Western Digital models I’ve had for a lower price. As with all harddrives the proof of how good it is to see how long it lasts after years of good performance.

I’ve used several others of these drives, so this review is only about this specific purchase, but the drive acted as if it had been damaged. I reformatted it exFat since it was for media delivery to a client. It formatted, was still slow, but worked so I sent it off since I didn’t have time to wait to get a replacement. I will probably not get one of these again.
