Seagate Backup Plus Use As External Hard Drive

The Seagate 2TB Backup Plus Slim external hard drive is small and convenient to carry. Also, it holds a lot of data for its small size. In the two months I've owned it, it has worked perfectly.

I use this hard drive as a backup to another identical Seagate.

I use this for my silver WD Backup Plus Slim external hard drive. It works great or... protects well. Here's my argument for why to buy the horizontal vs. vertical.. Horizontal offers a longer band to hold in the hard drive. More surface area holding it down = better protection.

At first I was skeptical with the dimensions that my Seagate 2TB External Hard Drive would fit into this case. I called the store and the gentleman assured me it would. So, I got it. This case provides the protection I need to carry my External Hard Drive from one location to another and with the hard-shell design, I can have confidence that my external hard drive will function when I plug it in to my laptop.

Good protection for the Seagate Backup Plus I just bought.

I have not purchased an external drive in some time so I was pleasantly surprised to see the price was so good. I mean I knew it wasn’t going to break the bank but it never fails to surprise me just how inexpensive they are for what they are. Purchased to use as a backup/clone of another drive (also seagate 2tb, slim version) that I have had seemingly forever (which is exactly why I got this, paranoia that my luck so far may run out) and it hasn’t let me down so when I was looking to get another I went for a seagate just as I did when getting a drive for a backup of my computer. I’m not one to shill for any brands but in my experience, seagate is a good choice. .

I'm using this Seagate 8TB drive in a dual external bay, next to my Seagate 4TB to backup the backup of my photos and music. It's quiet even when writing, and it backs up my photos at approximately 145MB per second. I also use it as a scratch disc when using Photoshop. It goes to sleep after about 20 minutes of non-use, as it should, and takes about 10-15 seconds to wake up.

I got this to transport and store my Seagate Back Up Plus Slim drive. It 's a hard case that's a good match for the Seagate drive. Sturdy and light with good protection and a strong zipper.

No issues. I use it to connect an external backup hard drive to my netbook.

I have several WD Elements Desktop External Hard Drive and all have served us well for backup.
