Usb C Connector Backup Disk Seagate

Fits 2 Seagate Backup plus slim and their two usb 3.0 cables. Firm Shell.

I have several Seagate Backup drives and they have always been reliable.

I have two external backup drives (Seagate 8TB with USB hub). Each is connected to my Mac with one of these. Works great

I like this as a backup disk that I can carry in my purse.

I bought the disk-less version, and added my own WD 4Tb RED disks. I am running a RAID 10 array for photos and other stuff. This is now my primary external; disk drive system for my iMac where I will store the photo library and other data. It took about 55 hours to transfer of approx 100,000 photo images using the Lightroom interface. It was slow, but it was the first copy to this RAID array; I expect it will be faster from now on. As for my backup, I am considering this RAID primary and secondary. My next level of backup is WD portable 4Tb disks backup from the RAID using the included tools. I will pass on two things that I learned (so far): 1) LaCie externally powered (non-USB powered) disks will cause this NAS system to freeze up, requiring an unplug and restart. I am now using only USB powered backup drives. I will rotate 1 of 2 USB drives as a backup each week and keep it in a fire safe offsite. (subscription cloud storage service seems too slow and too expensive for what I needed) 2) You can access your data remotely (over an internet connection, but you cannot access the NAS dashboard unless you are at home / office where the NAS is located. This is really not a factor for me. This device is setup to backup your phones, iPads, MacBooks using Time Machine. I assume that it works just as well with a PC or Android.

It is the backup disk I was looking for, small with a good USB 3 connection and a lot of capacity to store my photos

I have multiple USB 3.0 backup drives, all use the Micro-B connector. The new MacBook needs USB-C, so these fit the bill, and seem well-built. I ran a complete Time Machine restore to setup a new MacBook pro with this cable.

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

Good protection for the Seagate Backup Plus I just bought.

The hard drive in my Dell 620 (Seagate ST31000524AS) was failing ... causing slow operation and repeatedly throwing reports of disk errors, bad sectors, etc. despite my attempts at repair using a variety of programs. After finally getting a successful disk image from the original drive using Macrium Reflect, I swapped the drives and loaded the disk image onto this replacement. On restart my PC booted right up from this drive and it's been running like new since.
