Purchased product for my son who was studying abroad in Paris for 6 weeks.
Excellent way to store photos from weekend excursions to several cities in Europe without having to store on computer hard drive, freeing up much needed space.

I use the drive for backup purposes and to store a huge amount of backup data. The drive has everything you could want (tiny package, fast, giant storage capability, stylish and cool, USB3) and just about nothing that you don't.

I have to bring my camera and gear with me so a light external drive was essential. It fits nicely in my bag and I don't even notice the weight. It is fast and even the cord is slim. Cheaper than the name brand and better.

A very nice, slim hard drive unit with great capacity for the price. I had some issues formatting this unit for my Mac, but I hadn't yet updated my operating system, so that's where I would put the issue. This is a very fast hard drive unit, too, and due to small size easy to stash away and protect. (I paired it with an Insignia-brand hard shell case--this is DEFINITELY A RECOMMENDATION--if you're going to use an external hard drive with moving internal parts, be sure to keep it protected in a case. Very difficult to get files back if drive fails.) A very nice unit for compact storage that can also be taken on the go.

This Seagate hard drive for backup is excellent. I have an older HP laptop and wanted to back it up just in case in stops working. I did some research and this Seagate product seemed to be perfect for me. It is small in size and very easy to use. The on screen instructions are clear. Good product at a fair price.

Bought this for my wife and she absolutely loves it! Her laptop memory is no longer being used up by all her pictures and videos. She likes the simplicity of transferring pictures and that the actual device doesn't take up much storage.

I have had this drive for 3 weeks. I use it to backup pcs at work. This drive is very fast and extra slim. Makes it easy to cary. A little more pricy than the thicker / cheaper drives but they would work the same.

The device is perfect slim and the drivers load easily when you plug the device in. 1 TB is alot of space don't let others tell you otherwise. I have years of photos and long videos and I used about 150GB to store all of it on the drive. I will be able to use that for many more years to come.

I have many external drives that I store photos, videos, music etc. Recently I had a PC quit working before I could move all of my files on to another external hard drive. In a panic I went to Best Buy. The geek squad member had me bring the tower in and he was able to transfer my files to a seagate hard drive. I explained most of my other hard drives were WD. He explained how he liked this better because it is dual compatible between windows and apple. It is lightning fast and super sleek. I love it. Now to transfer all of my other hard drives to seagate models.
