💾 Seagate Backup Plus Slim 2TB External Hard Drive: Portable HDD in Light Blue, USB 3.0 for PC Laptop and Mac - Includes 1 Year Mylio Create & 2 Months Adobe CC Photography Review

The price was right, so I decided to buy a second backup drive. In short: too slow. With my 2 year old drive I copy files at just over 100MB/s, but with this one (same cable, same port, same computer) I'm an average of 17MB/s or about 600% slower. As for looks: ah. The tinted brushed aluminum is quite nice, but the plastic body is very cheap. Not the main thing, but something worth paying attention to. Conclusion: I cannot recommend this disc. I'll either keep it as a backup or return it and…

After buying 5 small USB drives that were supposed to be 1 terabyte (they were scams) I settled on a brand I could trust. There are about 5 brands that I know and trust. but i wanted a small hand size that would fit in my pocket or purse and i love almost every color except black, silver, red or yellow so blue caught my attention very quickly! After literally wasting hours copying 800GB to these rogue drives, it was a real pleasure to do it in less than an hour! Back to the quality drive, and…

I've decided to buy one for my Mac. In the picture the blue one is my latest purchase and the silver one I bought from 2015 and it still reads and works normally. Another bonus was that you get a two month photography plan which I was keen to take advantage of as I use the software on a daily basis. It's a bummer to me because I thought it was on a separate card/paper. Turns out it came preinstalled in the drive. In which I formatted the first thing I did when connecting. Totally my fault, but…

I had 2 of these hard drives because they weren't durable. I'm studying photojournalism, so I travel a lot and always have a hard drive in my camera bag. My first died, most likely because I wasn't very careful with it, but I learned from it, and so on the second I got a good case for it and was more careful. I used the second one as my main drive for a month and today the hard drive fell off my chair onto the carpet and when I tried to plug it in it wouldn't come up. I've tried the freeze…

This is my first time ordering this product and it failed immediately. I sent it back and received a replacement product. I also order the same product, but instead of blue I got black. I've only had the device for two months and now it doesn't work anymore. I need a RELIABLE backup hard drive. That's definitely not true. I have an OLD Seagate hard drive that still works and thought Seagate would be a good fit. nope I won't try again as I need to trust the device to last a while. Meanwhile, I'm

I wouldn't even give 1 star. It took me a while to decide which one to buy and when it arrived I really needed it but found it was defective. The connector on the hard drive itself is shorted, so the slightest movement will keep disconnecting and reconnecting. Tried different cables, same result. Sometimes when it was turned off it didn't even show up on the computer and I had to restart the computer for it to show up again, so it's NOT PORTABLE AT ALL. Unfortunately, this item was shipped to…

This thin and small part makes it very portable. Take it with you wherever you store your files. I create music and music videos that take up quite a bit of space. But I no longer worry about not being able to save my creations. I'm also live on YouTube and Twitch and can save any recording without breaking a sweat. At first I didn't like that it came with software, but after killing my monster of stubbornness I found the software that came with it very helpful. . It has more than enough space…
