With the size of data increasing manifold, a protable USB , harddiisk has become an utmost necessity.
I have used WD Passport and Transcend hardisks in the past but the Seagate has its own advantages.
I do like ny Seagate for the following reasons:
You get a whopping 478 GB effective space. The rest of tye space is occupied by the Seagate firmware.
Abosolutely no bloatware. It comes with Vanilla partition.
High read and write speeds and effective support for USB 2.0 and 3.0
Ease of doing partition with the Seagate Utility.
Backup and Restore to Seagate drive in case of data loss or hard disk failure which ensures no single point of failure.
Its a must buy for all portable storage lovers.
