It took a minute to figure out, but in you read the instructions first.... then you will know exactly what to do. Works great and great price! We have had it for two months now.

My 5th passport backup

My 5th Seagate passport unit never failed yet and Seagate has excellent online costumer service when you need help.

Works great

I bought this specifically because I switched from a PC to a Mac. This has the ability to do backups on both separately. Plug & Play, easy to use.

Backup Hard Drive

Works great for me on my Mac. I transferred 45000 photos from my hard drive and although it took several hours the transfer was very slick.

Works for me

Purchased for use as external backup device to be stored off site. Item came as promised and Mac found it on boot up Set to Time Machine and some time later I received a notification that my backup was complete. Seemed slow, but I continued to use the machine and it did the backup in the background. I'm happy with it.
