Seagate 1TB Backup Plus Slim Portable External USB 3.0 Hard Drive (Red)

No complaints with this drive. It performs nicely, has good file transfer with small file size and compressed file transfers. Its not really slow even with larger movie folder transfers either. The casing could be bit stronger.

Fast and affordable, the Seagate Backup Plus/Slim is one of the best deals on the market if you want want lots of storage space on the go.

  The two-year warranty is short and there's no security option to protect the contents of the drive against unauthorized access.

The Seagate Backup Plus Slim has a lot to like, including its great performance, unbeatable price and one of the best bundled software suites for managing backups both locally and on the go.

  Weaker build than Backup Plus Fast

I just wanted a harddrive for backups. However, during installation of the privacy policy wants me to allow the company to monitor my browsing and internet purchases. Snooping by businesses has gotton out of control.

I am very happy with my purchase. My PS4 load times are as good as the stock drive and I can store far more games than ever before. Not a hiccup in two years so the drive is quite reliable. Would buy again!

  No complaints at all, lovely samsung drive that is super easy to remove then you get a free enclosure. Way better than a free drive for a PS4!

  none to speak of except the price stagnation over the past while

I bought this hard drive for my Xbox One (original) back in 2014. I have been using it everyday since I got it for hours at a time. It is very simple to use (plug, format and play). Xbox had no issues finding the drive and I have never had any issues with the Xbox not recognizing the drive.

When I was buying my MacBook Pro, I was wanting an external hard drive to backup my 1TB hard drive. I was looking at this model or a Western Digital, went with the Seagate based on ABT's recommendation. Has worked great with Time Machine.

  UNDETECTABLE AFTER 10 SECONDS

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.

Would love an SSD but this has great capacity within a small frame. Durable too, dropped twice when it fell from my coat pocket onto cement, not even a hiccup. Runs quite, decent speed and doesn't require a separate power cord. Great solution until SSD comes down in price.

Perfect for gamers with an Xbox 1. This gives you more room to store you games. No more deleting a game to add a new one to your game system
