Review: Seagate Backup Plus Portable
A hard drive is a hard drive is a hard drive. Unless you're a deep study, the differences between competing portable storage drives seem minute, and few things influence purchasing decisions more than capacity and price.- Software makes it very easy to back up photos from Facebook and Flickr (Seagate says more services are on the way) with just a few clicks
- Drive's modular connector lets you swap interface types
- Build is light, but case is solid enough to be tossed into a backpack
- Price is right
- 2-year warranty
- Disparity in software features between Mac and Windows
- Only a difference between 500GB and 1TB, so there's no reason to buy the lower-capacity drives
- Seagate's cloud storage service, which this drive can interact with, is pricey and seems unnecessary given the wealth of cloud-based options on the...

- Fast performance
- Flexible interface
- including Thunderbolt option
- Easy-to-use backup software
- Interoperable between Macs and PCs

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.- Fast
- optional adaptors
- Bulky Thunderbolt adaptor
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.
Really nice portable notebook drive. I love the finish on the case. A little worried that the adapter connection to the hard drive might get loose over time, but other then that it is an awesome product. If i have the chance, i'll probably purchase another in the future.
- usb 3.0
- nice finish on the case
- reputable brand
- worried the adapter connection to the hard drive might get loose over time
