Review: good for Chrome. - Easy to use and works well plug and play for Chromebooks
Review: I'm now hooked on Hardware Encryption for External Drives - Easy plug-and-play for Windows 10 compatibility, and with a little searching one can find online how to fully operate this device. I'm a fairly technical person who has typically deleted all the onboard features, but I decided to try the hardware encryption, and I like it. It was easy to setup a device password, and I even tested "forgot password" before migrating data to this device. If I plug it into my desktop USB, then it's trusted (no password needed). Any other device requires a password to see the content. I was also able to assign a fixed drive letter so that the unlocked drive on my desktop is always L: I now have four Seagate drives, two that are at least 10 years old, and all still work. I compared several 1TB drives, and the cost per GB with my trust in Seagate quality gave me confidence that I was doing the right thing. At this point, I don't know why I'd buy a non-encrypted external drive.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WORKS FLAWLESSLY ON WINDOWS 11 PC
*by 4***N on June 10, 2024*

I read all the reviews and ordered it because Seagate drives have been very reliable for me in the past. I was leery because a lot of the reviews said it was difficult to set up and that there were no instructions. I connected it to my USB port, and up popped the file names that were installed on the unit, and I chose the file for Windows, launched it and a screen came up telling me that I could choose to drag and drop my files to the unit or do a scheduled backup. I dragged my files over and they copied to the backup perfectly with no issues. I viewed them once backed up and they were all there. Easy peasy. Definitely recommend!
