The 1TB drive will probably give best value for money rather than the smaller capacities and, at its suggested retail price of £94.90 (but possibly less on Amazon) appears to be a sensible price for a nice USB 3.0 drive.

Amazingly my laptop got filled up very quickly with photos of family, friends, events etc. I take a lot of videos using my Ipod Touch 5th Gen which has very high MB when saving and I use my Nokia Lumia 1020 which has a 41 Megapixel camera so photos save at around 30mb a time.

Good Price; Fast Transfers; Easy To Set Up; Easily Stored

My experience of external hard disks covers several years. I have purchased approx 2.5 terrabytes of external hard disks from varying manufacturers to act as storage and backup to my various machines.From experience the Seagate 750gb external drive has proven over the last 18 months to be the most...

Seagate has upped the performance ante for portable backup hard drives by stacking two 2TB drives, striped in RAID 0, inside its Backup Plus Fast USB...

Very fast; 4TB of capacity; Very low cost per gigabyte

Very difficult to recover from a RAID 0 failure; Thicker and heavier than single-drive alternatives

I use it as a secondary drive for my iMac desktop. I've had it for about 8months and can't say I've had any problems with it. I do not use it extensively, so perhaps if you read/write a lot to it, you may want to spend more for a "better" drive.

Good for archive , need to buy 2 similar hard drive and copy your data to two hard drive together. If one hard drive stop working you will have another copy.

8 TB - very high capacity for this size hard drive. Good price for this size

Slow recording after recording files for 2-3 minutes; Speed drop down up to 10 times !!! Very poor chance of recovery after a fall or shock this type hard drive. Poor build quality and performance of the device Hard drive have 6 platters and 12 heads + Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) technology

It's nice to see USB 3.0 adoption but their isn't really any reason for this device to use USB 3.0 since it is an HDD and can't really saturate the USB 2.0 link to begin with. I am happy it uses the usb 3.0 full size micro USB connector since it isn't as delicate as the 2.0 connector but still would...

Before I continue I just want to get this out of the way; this is an external hard drive, no more, no less. I just want to make sure that everyone is aware because there is only so much you can expect from a piece of storage media like this.

Other than the obvious cons of using an HDD over an SSD I didn't see too many issues with this device other than the connectivity; One of the most annoying problems is that every time you want to plug the drive into a Windows PC you need to install drivers.

Often I am put in a position where I lose out on important files which I had stored on my computer either due to virus or human error. This is why I purchased this Seagate 500GB USB 3.0 portable hard drive which I use to back up all important documents, files, folders, pictures, videos and other...

To early to say many things as I just bought it. I hope it will last as long as WD.

Easy Install

Not really 4 GB; Only 3.62

Great value on an item that worked as well if not better than expected. Highly recommend to anyone who needs to store a lot of info and still carry it with them.
