Works on both Windows and Mac
Reviewed by Randy - April 18, 2021
I read a review here that complained about this drive only working on Windows, since it is formatted as NTSF. Please be aware that you can simply reformat it using Disk Utility on the Mac. Format it exclusively for the Mac or as ExFat (works on both Mac and Windows natively). I have several of these drives and they all work perfectly with a Mac.
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Nothing fancy but just as good
Reviewed by Happy Happy - January 25, 2021
I usually replace my backup drives every two years. These Seagate Basic drives does not come with all the fancy software but they work just as good as all the others. They are all you need for regular back up.
