Comments about Seagate� Hard Drives; Backup Plus� Portable Drive, 500GB:
I bought the Seagate Backup Plus drive to backup my computer before a defective hard-drive was replaced. It did the job well and was easy to use. I plan to use it for backing up regularly.

Great product!!
By Steve
from Columbia, MD
So far so good. Lots of storage in a very small package. Product has been very reliable. Easy to transport, easy to hook up, and easy to use. Nice that no external AC power supply is needed. A bit of a longer connection cord might have been nice...
Easy backup

This is a simple, easy to use backup storage unit at a reasonable price with more storage space than my old reilable desktop.
Written set up directions- NOT!
By Kathy
from Newark DE
Needs some directions on installing software and how to set up backup for use. I shouldn't have to fumble around after hooking up to the computer to figure out what to do.
A GREAT BUY!

I'm very pleased with my Seagate Backup Plus external hard drive. I wish the connector cord was a little longer but other than that...it's great!

About Me Power user
I had another brand external hard drive for back up that started to fail, so thought it was time for a new one.I have used Seagate internal drives for years without any problems so thought I would give this unit a try.I was very apprehensive at first about a unit without external power and USB only, but this drive has no problems at all.Very easy to setup and backup my files. First time I have used a USB3 drive and beings my computer has USB3 ports, it is so much faster than the USB2 drive I had before.The Seagate dashboard software is very easy to navigate in and so much easier than my last drive.
Pretty good.

Pretty good product. I have 3 pc's backed up on this and it wasn't at all difficult. Each computer backup is named with the name of the computer. 2 of the pc's are pretty close in name so it is a little confusing but it works. I'm not real sure how to change the name either so i'll live with what i have. Cheap and okay on the size. It will be cheaper in a month i know but it was needed for all of our pictures from the last 5 years. It also has a cloud option but it costs extra money and what is the point if you are buying a drive.
Does everything I want it to do.

The unit is easy to program and can be set up to automatically back up all your files or only a select few on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis at a selected hour of the day.
