Easy use and portable.

I was running out of room on my hard drive on my computer, this little baby made it super easy to transfer a bunch of files that I wanted to access on from another computer and also free up alot of space on my desktop. One happy camper here!

Reliable Storage Drive

I just purchase this product, relatively recently, and these are my thoughts thus far. It is lightweight, small, compact and the texture of the device is uniquely interesting. I am not certain on why the cloth like design is part of this storage device, but I like it; it is a delightful and warn look to a storage device that I can appreciate. I am extremely satisfied with the storage space and the consideration of Seagate company to provide USB C and USB 3.0 adapters for my computer. It frees up a port for my older devices that support the USB 3.0 connection. Lastly, I appreciate the silence of the storage drive, no loud or annoying fan in the background.

Fast Backup for Terabytes of Data

Compact with m?e?g?a? tera storage. Fast and problem free backups with the included software. Backed up 1.3 TB of photos onto the Seagate Backup Plus in about 30 minutes. Will suggest this to my son, who is a music producer, to backup his files.

Great size - ample storage - quite - portable - reasonable cost

So far, they have performed very well. I have two of them, one for a complete time machine backup(Mac) and the other is an additional backup for music, photos and important files. Upon receipt, I reformatted, plugged them in to my computer and they were ready to go.

Good standard hard drive

Standard external hard drive. Smaller than I was expecting which was a nice surprise. Had to mess around with properties and drive type to get it all set up properly, but once I did I've had no issues. Great product for the price

Seagate Backup Plus is very portable and has lots of storage capacity

The Seagate 5TB external hard drive is exactly what I was looking for to backup a laptop and store photos from my camera and phone. It's small size means I can easily take it along whenever and wherever I transport my laptop. The backup software is very easy to use and works in the background to back up all my data.

I had it installed and had my harddrive backed up in about and hour.

Works great and was easy to install. It backs up all new data almost as soon as it is added to the computer.

Took it out of the box, plugged it in, it works fine! Two terabytes of data in a small package.

Its a hard drive

I have several seagate products and they all have served me well. This does its job as expected but the new covering isn't that special to me. It actually cheapens it for me in real life. Again it's a hard drive i'll just keep it safe in a casing which defeats the purpose of the cool new look, just like cell phones hahahahahahaaa.

Reseña del Disco duro externo Seagate 2TB Backup Plus Slim USB 3.0

En el mes que he utilizado este disco duro externo, ha funcionado muy bien. La capacidad de almacenaje es adecuada para los archivos que guardo y los programas que utilizo, ya que con 2 Terabytes entiendo que es suficiente para mis necesidades. Me gusta porque es portátil y lo puedes llevar a donde quiera que vayas. Otra ventaja que tiene es que es compatible con los puertos USB 2.0 y 3.0. Su diseño es sencillo, moderno. Viene en una caja metálica que entiendo que debe protegerlo en caso de que se caiga, si es a una altura baja. Además viene en varios colores. La transferencia de datos es bastante rápida y no he tenido problemas a la hora de guardar información. También incluye una aplicación para hacer tus backups de forma ordenada y segura. Lo que no me gusta es que el cable es muy corto y si lo vas a conectar a una computadora de escritorio, tienes que ponerlo encima de la torre para que no se vaya a caer. Pienso que es ideal para las laptops ya que lo conectas y lo pones al lado de la misma y no vas a tener problemas con eso. Por lo demás, ha funcionado muy bien. El precio es bastante asequible y definitivamente lo recomiendo.

Great drive for workflow flexibility!

I am really happy with this external drive. I have a Windows at home and a Mac at work, so it is really helpful to be able to go back-and-forth between systems. I haven’t had any issues with this drive and this is my second time purchasing one.

Functional, Convenient and Attractive...

Connect and go and never worry about having enough space for your monthly backup again. A great product from a great manufacturer at a great price. I bought two, one for my lab to backup the videos I'm producing for online courses and another for a desktop PC backup.

Small Footprint … Big Heart …Seagate 2TB Backup External Hard Drive, Black

A significantly smaller drive the I expected … actually a pleasant surprise since it takes up very little desk space while storing a good amount of information! The price is well worth it!

This hard drive serves the purpose well. I work with a lot of data that requires storing for several years at least. It hasn't been long since the purchase, but so far I'm satisfied with the product. The transfer is quick, and storage is safe.

I bought two

By GUY K.

I bought one for my wife and one for myself. It's compact, fast, and super easy. We have Macs and you just plug it in with the usb cable that comes with it, click Time Machine and you've got a second copy of your computer. No external power source is required which is a big plus. I back up my computer regularly and put the Seagate hard drive in a bank safe deposit box when I travel. I may buy another one so I can always have one at the bank and swap them out every so often.

Great little portable backup

By MARIA S.

I am in the middle of busy season and ran out of space, so I finally reorganized my backups. This is perfect since I don't need to access it all the time and it fits anywhere, but eventually I should go the RAID way. For now two handmade backups work.

Think about it. Photos, movies, documents. Phones, tablets, laptops. Your digital world is made of many parts that add up fast. Because we believe that managing all these files, across all these devices, should be easy and not a burden, we designed a family of premium portable hard drives to help you balance things out.

Backup Plus hard drives go above and beyond to help keep your file folders secure with time-tested reliability and password protection through hardware encryption - the same standard used by the U.S. government and global intelligence agencies.
