Seagate Ultra Touch HDD 4TB External Hard Drive - 15mm, Pebble Grey, Post-Consumer Recycled Material, 6mo Dropbox and Mylio, Rescue Services (STMA4000400)

I was trying to back up my Mac onto this and when it finally worked it did its job, but you have to be patient with it. In order to use it, I had to completely wipe everything from it with the highest setting (which took a good 10 hours for some reason), but then it seems to work well.

I needed to transfer files from a PC to a Mac and this did it without trouble. No software to install or setup required for what I was doing. Dragged & dropped the files from the PC, unplugged it, connected it to the Mac, and dragged the files off. Easy.

First thing I did was drop this on the floor several times. However, its continued to work perfectly. It wasnt completely my fault, though, that I dropped it. USB-C adapter that came with it is almost impossible to insert in my Macs USB-C port. I ended up not using the adapter and instead plugging the drive into a USB port on a new hub that I bought.

First I love the compact size and then the price for 2T is very good. It wasnt hard to set up with my MacBookPro. Once I went through the downloaded installer and was able to go to the Time Machine in my system preferences and check this as my preferred backup device. The first backup is a little over one hour but I have a lot to download so the time to do this is fine with me. I also liked the fact that it came with a USB-C adaptor so I didnt have to go to an Apple dongle. I have used G Drives in the past but the prices are extremely high now if all you are doing is backing up to your personal computer. I am not a tech savvy person but I didnt need any tech support to get this running.

I have a 2017 MacBook Pro with only a 256gb SSD. Ive been able to manage thus far, until my job has transitioned into more media and editing. Using primarily Photoshop & Adobe Illustrator has made this external hard drive a necessity. I formatted it to Mac OS Extended (journaled) using DIsk Utility and have it set up as my scratch disk for my Adobe Cloud and it has been perfect for my needs. Easy and fast and its quiet too. Small footprint makes it easy to throw in my bag and bring it with me. Im very pleased! *One important thing to note that can be seen in the stock photos, but not gleaned from the title: the unit itself is NOT usb c...but rather they include a usb 2 to usb 3 adapter. At 2TB...I should be good to go for a very long time!

Lightweight and easy to carry in a pocket. Easy to configure and backup. Tech support is good. One issue I wish they will address. it accumulates unlimited versions of outlook pst files. I have set it up for hourly incremental backup. So every hour it creates a new set of pst files. Overall, it is a good drive and backup software. Recommend.

well priced

The title sums it up. Im not sure Ill buy another Seagate product for that reason.

Muy útil, fácil de usar y los documentos protegidos

was hoping for a better human interface after several years, but disappointed.
