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.

Pros:
- Small size
- extremely light

- no power adapter
Cons:
- USB cable is very small

Brilliant device, compact, silent, runs cool, needs no external psu, very good value. Needed reformatting for MacOS (took 20 seconds so no problem), and their included software is not terribly...useful.

Great hard drive for anyone
Great sized hard drive offering speedy and reliable performance all around. I've used this mainly on USB 2.0 and frequently on USB 3.0 and both offered above-average performances. Would've been even better if the SATA-to-USB connector can be locked in place.
Pros:
- Speedy and reliable performance
- silent operation
- relatively thin and conservative profile
- LED activity indicator is non-obtrusive
Cons:
- The USM attachment to the actual hard drive feels a little bit unreliable
- In real operating conditions this is virtually a non-issue, but it would've been nice if there was a switchable lock or screws to secure the SATA connector onto the hard drive
