Good backup drive I can take to & from work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive is perfect for me to take to and from work. Small physical size with large 4TB capcity is perfect to carry in your briefcase. Fast enough USB 3 performance. Good for larger file sizes. NOTE: This is the drive to buy if you own Mac but use Parallels for PC files - Seagate has a great driver that allows you use the drive for both operating systems which is nice so you don't have to format the drive for format Mac OS Extended Journaled. It would be nice if it had a longer USB 3 cable, otherwise I would give it 5 stars. I believe it is 12" - 16" long so you need to put it very close to your computer. I'm not sure about reliability or durability as time will be the only guide to that part of the ownership experience. I would recommend this product to a friend!

Seagate Back Up Plus 4 TB USB Portable Drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a USB Portable Drive with enough storage space to back up my iPad Air 2, my Laptops 2 HD's, Smartphone, and my Desktops 3 HD's. Well this Seagate lets me plug it into my Linksys WRT1900ACS Router and forget about it. I can back up from any Mobile or Stationary Device, Mac or PC, connected to my Wi-Fi system, using the Seagate Dashboard. This little drive works flawlessly, and, has a ton of space. What's also COOL, is I can unplug it and take it with me at any time I want. NO EXTRA POWER CORD NEEDED. It runs off the 5 volts through the USB cable. I like this little drive because it fits in my shirt pocket. The only thing I can nit pick is, the ON LED light doesn't blink during data transfer like my Toshiba does, but again, no one makes a 4 TB Totally Portable USB Drive except Seagate right now. Being involved with programs in ATM Machines for 30 years and computers for over 40 years I have never had a Seagate HD I did not like. I recommend this little drive, if you are looking for a TON of space, and is TOTALLY PORTABLE. And remember Seagate has been in the Hard Drive Storage Devices Business FOREVER !

pretty good back up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is probably the easiest backup I've ever set up. The only issue I had is that when I went to try to find my pictures it was very difficult to locate them because there was nothing on there pointing the way. So I clicked and I clicked and I did finally discover them I'm still testing it out to try to figure out how it all works but it seems to be doing fine and I sure like the amount of storage it has. Presumably when you get one of these exposed to get 200 GB of storage from one drive I have not been able to figure that out yet.

Good value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a little hard drive with a large capacity. Simple to use and reformat for Mac. I accidentally tested the impact resistance when I dropped it from about chest high from my computer bag and not even a scratch on it. It was cheaper than other brands. Transfer speeds are good with the USB 3.0 interface.

Q: QuestionCan I use this hard drive for my Xbox one?
Asked by Pango.
- A:Answer Theoretically yes. When you plug it in, the XBOX One will reformat the drive for storage. BE CAREFUL, as doing this may erase anything you already have on the hard drive, but then you can use most of the storage space for your XBOX. I bought the 2TB Seagate and it works fine, so I don't see why the 4TB can't do the same. Hope this helps!

Asked by sam.
- A:Answer If you format the drive so that the file system is exFAT, then both MAC and PC will be able to read and transfer files. However, devices such as Playstation, Xbox and blu-ray players do not read exFAT.

Q: QuestionDoes this backup via wifi or cable only?
Asked by Atin.
- A:Answer If you plug this into your router via USB you can access it by wifi. Provided you have setup your router to use it. It does work very good with either wifi or cable. But you need a network to share with all your computers and smartphones and tablets. Works faster using ethernet. Enjoy!

Q: QuestionI need a new cable to connect my seagate hard drive to my computer. Can I buy that seperately at Best Buy?What is the proper name for the cable connector?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer The cable supplied with this drive is not proprietary, so it can, indeed, be replaced, or upgraded to one of a longer length. The cable in question is most-accurately referred to as a "'USB 3.0 A Male' to 'USB 3.0 Micro-B Male'" Data Cable. If considering a replacement of a longer length, take note that, technically, the USB 3.0 spec does not detail a maximum cable-length, however, a 9.8 foot (3.0 meter) maximum-length is recommended.
