5 of 5 great product, great price. Monday, April 13, 2009
J0hnny from Atlanta, GA  
awesome so far. This is my second Seagate external, and I can manage them both and set my Syncs from the same manager app. Very easy, quiet and fast, and I can set the power saver and everything. Excellent product for the price in my opinion.

5 of 5 Great Value Easy to Use Wednesday, March 18, 2009
Josh from New York, NY  
Disclaimer: I'm not a techie. I use this product to back up my work and media files every night. It was simple to set up and seems to be working very well. I'm not that concerned with speed as backups are created at 4am and finished by the time I get started in the morning. This hard drive was a little more expensive than the comparable Western Digital drive I was considering, but I was willing to pay a premium for Seagate's bundled software.

5 of 5 Great little harddrive Wednesday, March 11, 2009
Dale from Redmond, WA  
This is my second 1 TB hard drive. It is so quiet that you can't tell if it is on. I bought it to back up photos and it is perfect. It has a firewall connection, USB and I can even use the Nikon camera cable. The drive arrived be fore it was promised

5 of 5 Great Drive Wednesday, March 11, 2009
Happy from Colorado Springs, CO  
I bought this as a backup drive for a new iMac - specifically for use with time machine. It was incredibly easy to connect, although I did need to "reformat" it for use on a Mac, but the iMac setup handled that automatically. Its incredibly quiet and I have had zero issues with it. I would recommend this drive for this situation. If you want to have it be a time machine backup, and use it for also backing up other things, you need to partition the drive which is a bit more complicated.

Paul from Alexandria, VA  
The drive was easy to set up and use. The backups are unobtrusive and quick, even using USB. I was also happy with the warantee. So far, no problems, and I would recommend to anyone.

5 of 5 Works great with my new DirecTV HD DVR. Wednesday, March 04, 2009
David from Winchester, Ohio  
Took longer to unpack the drive then it took to set it up. The rubber legs make the drive look cheap. But the drive works great.

5 of 5 Great Drive. Wednesday, February 25, 2009
Steve from Rogers, Ar  
Easy Setup. Just plug it in and run it. The 5 Year Warranty is a plus. Why buy a cheaper drive and add the extended warranty! In the long run this is the better deal.

5 of 5 Excellent Drive Thursday, February 12, 2009
Fred from Randallstown, MD  
Drive has been useful. Ease of setup was good. Graceful shutdown when stopping machine and quiet running. Have never been dissatisfied with Seagate drives. Transfer rate as advertised. Would recommend this drive.

5 of 5 Solid product Wednesday, January 28, 2009
Ken from Boston, MA  
I'm very happy with this purchase. It was simple to install, it has a decent piece of backup software included, and it turns off gracefully when I shut down my machine or hibernate. It was a good price for a top-end drive. I trust Seagate hard drives and haven't had a problem with this one yet (had it a month so far). I love the USB / eSATA option too. I'm stuck on USB for now, but it's fairly quick. I'm sure the eSATA will blow that away when I finally get a machine that supports it ;)
