Review: Perfect portable drive, especially for the price! - For my use, this drive is just perfect, and the price was great for a 2TB capacity storage device, even better pricing at desertcart than Costco! I'm using this with a mid-2010 MacBook Pro as a backup drive. I've partitioned the drive into two 1TB partitions. I use Carbon Copy Backup to back up my drive. I alternate partitions which allows me to keep 2 copies of the last known-good configurations of my computer. I do a lot of beta testing for Apple and this allows me to be a bit more fearless than if I had only one backup. This drive was easy to work with out of the box. My MacBook Pro can't make use of USB 3, but this drive is backward compatible with USB 2 and performs perfectly fine for my usage. I like the idea that one day, when I upgrade, this drive will give me the maximum speed available via USB. I once had a Seagate drive that went bad after a few years, and I contacted the manufacturer to exercise the warranty. The drive was promptly replaced, without any questions or hassle. It's made me a loyal Seagate customer to know that they stand behind their products. If you're looking for a portable drive with 2TB, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Seagate Expansion Portable External Hard Drive.
Review: Seems to be great for Xbox One storage! - I bought two of these to extend my Xbox One's space. I didn't plug them into a PC at any point so I can't speak to that. Both Xbox Ones immediately recognized the drives and asked to format them. Formatting was finished in seconds and I had 2.3TB of total storage between the internal and external drives on my console (with nothing installed). This is a very small drive, it fits in my hand. I like that it is powered over the one USB cable. They drives are quiet, I can only barely hear them running when I'm within 2 feet of the drives and the room is silent around me. I've permanently stored them behind the consoles so they are essentially silent even when my rooms are quiet. There is one small blue status light that blinks when its being accessed. Luckily its a pretty faint light so it shouldn't be an annoyance in dark rooms. I've been running them for about 2 weeks now with no glitches or issues. The drives seem fast which is a must for gaming, I chose this drive because of other's reviews showing they usually reach their advertised speeds. My only complaint is the short USB cable, its probably 1 foot long. If you're using it on your desk with your PC or just looking to extend your Xbox One's storage it should be fine. Pros: -Small -Quiet -Works great with Xbox One Cons: -Short cable

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple but effective storage
*by S***E on April 8, 2013*

I wanted an External Hard Drive to use with my PS3 for playing music and videos. This 1TB (931GB out of the box) hard drive is simple and does everything I need it to. You simply plug it in to your computer and start dragging and dropping files. The first thing I did after setting it up was dividing it into two 465GB partitions; one for simple data storage and one for PS3 use. In order to make it compatible with the PS3 you have to format the hard drive to FAT32. Unfortunately Windows doesn't support this, so I downloaded a quick program ([...]) that formatted it in mere seconds. The problem with FAT32 is that it only accepts files under 4GB, so you can't have Blu-Ray quality DVD rips on here. So far the Hard Drive runs very smoothly. File transfers are reasonably fast, even when using a USB 2.0 port. The unit runs quiet and doesn't generate much heat, and it's small enough to easily fit in a coat pocket. I also think it's important to say that prices on this thing fluctuate like crazy on Amazon. One week the 1TB drive was $100, then $65, and now about $80. So if you can, have some patience and wait for a price drop because the price changes frequently. In conclusion this hard drive is simple and should work for anybody with file storage needs, and it's also proven to work great with the PS3.
