DASHBOARD SOFTWARE
You can download easy to use backup software called Dashboard directly from Seagate's support page.
By clicking on the picture of the drive you can check the available capacity, create video thumbnails, enable/disable the front activity LED, perform drive diagnostics and configure the power saving mode.
Of course you can also use the program to backup all your important files (you can either select the preset task or create your very own).
The Dashboard software also gives you the ability to back up your important mobile files (you need an accont with Seagate for that).
Via the Dashboard software you can also upload or download files onto and from your social network pages like Facebook.
