  1. CAROL B.

    Pros: – Easy to use. Step one – plug the USB cable into the drive. Step two – plug the cable into your computer. Done. Upon plugging the drive into my workstation, Windows 7 x64, didn’t even need to go out and look for drives. By the time I sat down again, my device was ready to use. That’s cool!… instead of waiting around all day for Windows to go fetch drivers. – Quick speeds. HD Tune: Seagate Expansion Benchmark Transfer Rate Minimum : 55.0 MB/sec Transfer Rate Maximum : 116.6 MB/sec…

  2. Vincent C.

    Pros: The packaging on this drive is of a very high quality, and the drive itself is very aesthetically pleasing. If you were looking for an external drive as a gift, this is a great option. Drive comes formatted, labeled, and has a warranty registration app built in for ease of use. Transfer speeds are pretty standard on USB 3.0, but are remarkably stable on large single files (averaging over 90 MB/s sustained transfer rate). Cons: Neither of these cons are exclusive to this brand or model,…

  3. Robert P.

    Pros: There’s absolutely nothing to complain about with this portable drive. It’s thinner than my other 2TB portable USB drive by a substantial margin. This “Seagate” enclosure contains a 2.5″ 9mm Samsung Spinpoint M9T ST2000LM003 drive which explains a lot. Earlier large capacity 2.5″ drives were of the 12.5mm or 15mm variety. This portable drive is sleek, light weight, and quiet. Oh, and I might add it’s pretty darn fast for a platter drive over USB 3.0. If you do your research, or trust…

    Pros: Ready to go out of the box Compact Fast Cons: Not the greatest value Overall Review: This portable drive from Seagate is a nice entry into the market. It’s 1 TB size (931 GB formatted under Windows NTFS) is roomy for such a small package. It’s also very speedy when connected to a USB 3.0 port. The textured surface is a nice touch and it’s very lightweight, making it an easy addition to any laptop bag or “go” bag. Here’s a few numbers. All speed tests performed in Windows 8.1 and…

  5. Robert M.

    Pros: Pretty standard packaging that isn’t ‘human proof’ when trying to remove the product; haha Nice matte/patterned finish. Gloss always looks nice, but does nothing but get scratched/dull more quickly/noticeably over time. Quiet…even when writing nearly 1TB of data to it consecutively 14″ cable included (not including connector length) Nice snug fit into the drive and USB port. Solid speeds even at 90% capacity. Blue activity light isn’t blinding. Light and Compact USB powered Cons:…

  6. Matthew G.

    Pros: + A good amount of space: 500GB (467GB~ usable) USB 3.0 USB powered. LED power indicator. Decent Transfer speeds. Sleet design aesthetics. Textured surface provides slip resistance. Light weight. Pocket sized. Runs cool and silent. Removable, and replaceable cord. Price point. Cons: – Not really a con, more of a wish that this had a little more heft or durable feel to it, granted I don’t throw portable drives around. Still it would be nice to have assurance that if the drive was…

  7. Rauel C.

    Pros: I absolutely love how much storage this drive offers. 2TB(1.81TB) is an amazing amount of storage for videos and Steam/Origin games I copy over to my other computers (I copy my libraries over when I build new PC’s for myself or need to install a game on another machine….it’s much faster than re-downloading it.). What made that storage even more useful was how wicked the transfer speed is. I had to install GTAV to my mediaPC took about 12 minutes to copy the 60+GB file over. It was…

  8. Chris M.

    Pros: Sleek attractive design. Small and lightweight, USB 3 is a plus. No power adapter needed since it’s a 2.5″ drive. Speeds are pretty decent for the 5400RPM disk (Lower rotational speed = less power but slower speeds. See Other thoughts for better specs). Cons: Only a 5400 RPM disk is in the enclosure, greater speed would be achieved with a disk of a higher rotational RPM. Nonetheless, this isn’t a slow drive by any means. The USB 3 interface does make it a bit quicker than the USB 2…
