Seagate Technology plc. (NASDAQ: STX) today introduced
SuperSpeed USB 3.0 to the award-winning Backup Plus storage for
Mac. Currently available through Amazon.com and from Apple Stores
in November, both Backup Plus Portable for Mac and Backup Plus
Desktop for Mac drives will feature the new USB 3.0 interface,
which is also compatible with earlier USB 2.0 ports. This new
interface means faster transfer of data, so you can backup more
quickly, up to 10x that of USB 2.0, via TimeMachine® or simply
transferring a file from a computer to external storage.

Selected as the Editor’s Choice portable external drive by PC
Magazine, Seagate® Backup Plus hard drives were first introduced in
June of this year. Designed to work interchangeably with both
Windows® and Apple® computers, these new drives deliver features to
protect, share and save nearly every aspect of one’s digital life.
Seagate Backup Plus products include a software feature that makes
them the world’s first external hard drives to provide a way to
backup content from social networks, such as Facebook and Flickr.
The Seagate Dashboard software included on Backup Plus for Mac
drives delivers a quick and easy path to Save and Share personal
photos and videos on Facebook and Flickr.
A Versatile Storage Device
In 2010, Seagate adopted the Universal Storage Module (USM®)
standard, which enables consumers to easily add the newest Mac® and
PC connection capabilities to their Seagate storage product even if
these technologies are not available at the time of purchase.
Backup Plus for Mac will now provide a USB 3.0 cable out of the box
and can be upgraded to Thunderbolt™ Technology or FireWire 800, as
the need presents itself. To add yet another level of versatility,
Seagate has introduced a way to have the company’s external storage
products work cross-platform with both Mac® and Windows® operating
systems without reformatting.1

Plus Desktop drives; 2TB, MSRP $129.99 and 3TB for an MSRP of
