Customer Reviews

fast, secure, easy software - very happy customer
Software easy to set up - even for the IT illiterate - and not mandatory if you do not want to use it; 5 yr Seagate guarantee worth something to me as I don't want the back up drive to fail; About as fast as USB 2 allows; First back up took ages but subsequent runs much faster as it updates changed files; Keep it unplugged and away from your machine and you have inexpensive "off-site" backup.

Fast and works well
Whilst this external hard drive can be used to perform regular back ups using the included software I bought it to store things like photos that I don't want to lose or delete by mistake and also to store a back up image of my hard drives - should the worst happen.

Easy to connect up, comes with a two pin and three pin power adapter and a quick start guide. Just connected up the usb lead and the power and it installed itself automatically - pretty simple stuff. Initial image back up of my 320Gb system using Seagate's DiscWizard took less than an hour and a half.

Good enough for me and the 5 year guarantee gives real peace of mind.
