Having read reviews telling me that this HDD breaks down after a few months, i chose to ignore them, telling myself i would just be very careful...
Considering the technology is fairly simple within the HDD it has managed to breakdown on me after only a few months. I would not recommend thsi HDD to anyone. Steer clear!!!

This hard drive arrived very quickly and I purchased the recommended black case logic hard case to go with it. The drive fits the case but is very slightly too long, although this does not make much of a difference as the case still closes, protecting the hard drive without causing it any damage.
I bought the 500gb drive which has plenty of room on it for the entire contents of my laptop hard drive and therefore acts as a very good back up. I bought the drive because I recently upgraded my computer to Windows 7 (the drive is Windows 7 compatible) so needed to copy all my documents to another drive as they would get wiped by the upgrade. I originally copied everything onto two memory sticks but it took over an hour and a half to copy across all my files. When I received this drive, I copied all my neccessary files across (about 20gb) and it took less than seven minutes which by comparison was very fast. The drive is very small and neat - a complete contrast to an old external hard drive I have at home which was bought only a few years ago and is five times the size, but only 80gb!
I hope this has been useful! I highly recommend this hard drive.

For any Mac users in doubt: this comes with lots of Windows-compatible icons on the box and NO hint at Mac compatibility but the truth is that it absolutely is more than compatible with your Mac. Just plug it in, launch Disk Utility and re-format as Mac OS extended. It takes all of 5 seconds. It's fast, and it looks beautiful too. Just do it.

Does the job, easy to use.
I am using this with a MAC, so initially it would not allow me to drop items onto the drive, I needed to format the drive following instructions I found on the Seagate website. Read more

A dude
Although the spec for this says it is compatible with Mac, it arrived preformatted for Windows. So be a little tech savvy if you have a Mac. Read more
