Seagate Backup Plus 1 TB External Hard Disk

I have bought this product 3 days ago but not through Flipcart.
It comes with a single 3.0 USB Cable which can also be used in USB 2.0 Ports.And they do not give any pouch or cover but you can also buy one outside. It does not have a shiny plastic but has a good matte finish. But one the sides it has a scratch prone plastic, so better to buy a pouch to protect your beautiful device.

Pros:
1)You get 930 Gb.
2)Matte like finish to prevent scratches.
3)It does not become hot even after hours of usage.
4)Good read/write speed of 20/mbps on my USB 2.0.

Cons:
1)The USB Cable is very short, if you are using a desktop try a different hard drive.

I bought it for Rs.5,600 which is a good price for a 1 TB
Hard drive. If you're looking for a 1 Tb hard drive for a laptop for heavy usage, i suggest you to get this one.

PROs:
1. Sweet sleek design with mat finish.
2. Good speed, I got upto 20MBps write speed.
3. Although prices are not like it was 9 months ago, still it is a good bargain at 5700/- rather than going for other drives at 6000+ bucks.
4. Nice bundled backup software, that can take backup of your online content also.
5. Flexible design for connecting various adapters. If you want to use other connectivity like eSATA, Thunderbolt etc. just buy the adapter with the cable.
6. The older SeaGate GoFlex adapters is also fully compatible with it.

CONs:
1. USB cable is very short.
2. Drive activity indicator is not very noticeable. It only changes light intensity. But most people are familiar with the changing blinking rate of the LED. But it's a personal choice of course.
3. Not military grade drop tested like the IoMega eGo and Transcend StoreJet. But no issues as it is also your personal choice and pricing difference.

Ordered the blue color model of this HDD for 5245 on 27th oct. Got it in 2 days thanks to quick flipkart self delivery.
Coming to the drive, have used it for 5 days and quite happy with it's performance.
Pros- 1) Stays cool for long hours
2) Very Silent
3) Good read & write speeds (20-30 MBps on usb 2.0, dont have a 3.0 port so cant say about that)
4) Cool looks (Matte finish)
5) Seagate Dashboard software is good.
Cons- 1) Short cable (but enough for a laptop)
2) Scratch prone (Pouch required for protection)
3) LED indicator light does not blink when data transfer is ongoing.
But pros definitely outweigh the cons. Good drive for this amount of money. Best in class. Definitely recommended.

I received it today and it is great. I have four other External HDs and two of them are Seagate. This one so far has the coolest looks.

Works quietly and the port is a three-in-one to which three different types of adapters can be connected.

Softwares are good for back-up, though the cover claims facebook, which I haven't tried yet, and am not sure will do in future.

The looks are great. The Blue wood-ish texture is great and it is well protected with a fine film, you can choose to peel or not. The sides and the backs come laminated and the lamination is so neat that I do not want to take it out.

The packaging was very good inside the Seagate box and outside it too. Flipkart as usual is great with delivery.

Flipkart self-delivery has improved a lot. Before, there was a little amount of ambiguity with the Courier companies, now with Flipkart self-delivery it is flawless.

This is a great buy, if you are looking in portable 1TB section. It is light, sleek and fast.

Got it delivered in 4 Working days, in the best packing possible practically. Right from the moment I have opened the box, I became fan of Seagate. It is even smaller than half of the 500 GB HD Drives. Space provided is 930 GB and USB 3.0 gives transfer speeds upto 80 MBPS, blazing fast data transfer, amazing looks, compact and portable size makes it the best pick of all the available HD Drives. Flipkart has the most attractive pricing, have done quite some research in this area and found FK to be most reasonable. Overall the best HDD to buy in the 1TB Segment.
