Questions and Answers

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.

Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

Seagate Backup Plus STBU1000100 - hard drive - 1 TB, 2013-03-14
By Dick 
Great product if you have USB 3.0; too slow on USB 2.0. Included backup software is limited and complex; prefer selectivity of AVG Backup.

Great Hardware, Setup Not Intuitive, 2013-01-22
By Norman Lenz 
This is a great little external hard drive with pretty good software for managing backups. The initial setup is not quite as the instructions would indicate. A technically savvy user can guess at the differences and get a solid installation.

This drive is super small, quiet and easy to use. It's not much bigger than my phone! One USB cable (included) to connect and power. Interfaces with both my home macbook and work PC. It's everything I wanted and will not hesitate to buy another ...

Can this be formatted to do both PC and apple (time machine) backups?

Asked by geoffrey burns from AZ | Jan 06, 2013

Flag as Inappropriate

Best Answer

In order to work with Time Machine it needs to be HFS+ format, so yes you would need to reformat. In that case it would still work with PC but you would need to install the driver on your PC which can be downloaded from Seagate's website. The Backup Plus for Mac is already formatted for Mac.
