Easy to use
The instructions for setting up the Seagate were hard to follow. However, the tech at the 800 number quickly, efficiently, professionally walked me through the process in a matter of minutes.
Pros:
- Attractive Design
- Compact
- Easy to use
- Portable
Cons:
- Difficult To Set-up Using

Seagate portable HDD
Its a cracker, about an 1/8 the size of my older portable HDD's, easy set up but my word it backs your files up into a virtual secret place in its memory so its not easy to find where its stored your files.

Seagate Backup Plus Portable
The Portable comes with a USB 3.0 connector which can be detached (exposing SATA data and power connectors) and swapped for a Firewire 800 or Thunderbolt connector, making it a tempting proposition for those concerned about future-proofing and backwards compatibility.
Pros:
- Fast
- optional adaptors
Cons:
- Bulky Thunderbolt adaptor

Seagate Backup Plus 500GB review
Whatever Seagate is doing to make its drive go fast it's working. Like its 1TB compatriot in the super-sized portables group the Backup Plus 500GB left nearly every other drive in its wake when it came to our performance tests. In fact this was the fastest portable drive we've tested.
Pros:
- Great backup software blazingly fast
Cons:
- None
- Really

Pros:
- Very quick and retrieval
Cons:

Seagate Backup Plus portable 500GB review
Backup Plus is the latest version of Seagate's venerable GoFlex series of external hard disks. It has the same swappable connector which lets you replace the USB3 interface with a FireWire, eSATA or Thunderbolt one, but the real change is in the bundled software suite.

Mac and PC without formatting the drive.
The drive is slick, attaches seamlessly to my Mac and my PC without having to format the drive or losing any previously backed up data. Thin and decently portable as well. Very happy with my purchase.

USB drive
This external usb harddrive is detected automatically by my Windows computer without need to install any driver or need to reboot my machine. The drive is super fast and does not make a lot of noise. I ran it for over hours and it feel warm but not hot to touch.

The product is what I expected & works as expected flawlessly. The only negative coment is that the case is plastic & not metal. I would recommend this product to others.
