    Seagate vs Western Digital, and the winner is...

    Between Seagate and Western Digital, at least when it comes to USB Portable Drives, the clear winner is Seagate. Not only do they have a lower failure rate, but their connectors are standard SATA. Western Digital case connectors are part of the drive and proprietary. If a Seagate drive fails you can always install the drive itself into another case. Not so with WD. When a WD portable drive goes south, so does your data.

    I purchased this a couple of years ago when i was entering college. I needed to upgrade from the one i bought way back in 2011. Definitely recommend this drive. Its easy to use, comes with software that makes management of your files easy, and can be used for a long period of time. I made this purchase back in 2021 and have zero regrets. It made moving from my laptop to a desktop effortless

    Very nice, fast, lightweight, petite hard drive. Plug and play. I though the color would be all around for those that care. The colore is only on top, but not that important to me. It's still nice looking, though I bought it for useability, not aesthetics. I got a red and a blue. I bit more expensive but I trust getting a known, long-time hard drive maker for such an important thing as a backup. It doesn't matter how fast it is or how pretty if you lose your data!

    This has been my best portable hard drive yet. It's very small, handy, and with plenty of room for all my data. I've had different brands like Western Digital and this brand outlasts them all. Great drive.

    Works Great for Xbox One!

    I purchased this to use as additional storage for my Xbox-One after subscribing to GamePass, as it would save me the the hassle of having to constantly uninstall and re-install games. There were plenty of cheaper options elsewhere, but I wasn't really in the mood to gamble on a brand I had never heard of. I've had luck with Seagate devices in the past so, I didn't mind spending a little more for something I trust, plus the blue/white version pictured looked pretty cool to me. After several weeks of using it, I can happily report that it does what a hard drive should, and has indeed allowed me to download all the games my friends and I regularly play, with plenty of storage left to spare. If I had to nit-pick about anything, it would be that the actual product looks more silvery then blue to me, but does look sorta blue under the right lighting. Regardless, this would not have stopped me from purchasing, nor has it affected my overall satisfaction with the product.

    I've never used an external hard drive before, so I was nervous about choosing the right one. This hard drive is compact and easy to use, especially for anyone who's not tech savvy. It's nothing fancy, but it gets the job done. Great amount of storage for the price.

    Nice, slim drive with lower cost per TB than SSDs

    I like it. This 2TB Seagate drive is nice and slim, higher capacity drives are thicker. The USB 3 interface is fast, faster than the drive can actually deliver given its mechanics. If you want faster transfers (and sometimes I do) get an external SSD. If you're going to be rough with your external drive, get an SSD because it has no moving parts. Otherwise, hard drives still have lower cost per terabyte.
