Well sadly, after one and a half hours, I'm ready to stuff it back in its box and give it back to Staples. The only thing stopping me is that the $200 device was sold for $59.
My son got two. One WD, with a good set of write-ups, and this Seagate...with some really bad reports of bad documentation and almost impossible logic routes. Shame...it's nice and heavy, and I like that.

User and Passwords not being recognized, erm, admin, admin. How hard is that? After some time if finally started to back the Cdrive up. Then got a big failed flag, and a nice set of calenders. I had selected no automatic backup, so they weren't much use.
Obviously the bloke that wrote the paperwork - all 79 pages of pdf, was pi$$ed. So, I'm going to get outside a bottle of something nice, and it will surely make sense. Doing this,
hasn't helped.
