Pluses: 1. Hard drive is fast and reliable. 2. Setup procedure for the Seagate is smooth. Unit uses your default browser to do this. 3. When connected: a. Seagate WiFi can set up connection with a router, so you can do business as normal by connecting via WiFi to the Seagate, which connects automatically to your router. b. Can download files from Seagate. c. Can upload files to Seagate. d. Can copy or move files from one location to another on the Seagate. e. The wireless connection is reliable and you can do business as usual. 4. File movement to, from and within the Seagate is fast. 5. Can plug Seagate directly into your computer and use it as a regular USB-powered hard drive (USB-3 rate). Minuses: 1. Upon powering up the Seagate, the WiFi is slow to establish itself (i.e., your computer's/tablet's wireless-networks function will "see" the Seagate), when it does so. 2. At times, needed more than one attempt to get Seagate to establish itself (WiFi annunciator keeps flashing - a solid annunciator shows the WiFi is established). 3. If your computer/laptop is already connected to a router (any type), it may not "see" the Seagate. This may require that you disconnect fro your router and then go to the wireless-networks function of your computer/laptop to detect the Seagate and manually connect. 4. When the Seagate is plugged into a computer as a hard drive, the WiFi is disabled. This is by design. The offset is that when the Seagate's WiFi is activated, you can plug it into a computer to charge the battery. When the WiFi is established on the Seagate, the unit runs great. This is useful for tablets or smartphones with limited storage space. For regular computers, the simplest approach is to use the Seagate as a normal USB-3 hard drive, however I would use a computer with a WiFi device (any laptop will do) to set up the Seagate. I did check "yes" for recommendation, but its a conditional "yes." I would not pay full price for this unit.
