Seagate External Hard Drive Expansion Vs Backup Plus

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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a while now, I’ve dealt with the all too common issue of just not having enough storage space on my Macbook. In particular, I have a lot of music files and Garageband files that eat up space on the SSD. This Seagate Expansion drive is great for storing all of these files. I don’t need to constantly access these files, but having this external hard drive means that I can access them when I need them and even transfer the ones I need to the SSD if I need to have them on the laptop itself, for example if I’m taking it on the go. This Seagate Expansion drive is also impressively speedy when it comes to transferring and accessing files stored on it. It doesn’t make much noise at all when it’s running, and it also looks and feels really nice so I don’t mind having it at my desk. It’s great to not have to worry about running out of space or losing my files, all thanks to this spacious and secure external hard drive.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 12TB Seagate Expansion for PC is awesome! I have a gaming PC that’s been pretty slow lately, so I’ve been needing to free up space. The Seagate Expansion is an extremely spacious external hard drive that is super easy to set up. I set the expansion up as my default backup device, so now I don’t have to worry about losing my files. I’m also using it to remove and store files from my computer so that I have more space for games. I was surprised when I initially removed the drive from the box because it’s much smaller than I anticipated, which was nice. It also came with a variety of plugs that work with international outlets, so I could bring this drive with me whenever I travel abroad. Overall, I’m very pleased with this external drive.

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.
