I presume you're having a problem with the connector of the mentioned GoFlex hard drive and not the actualy hard drive itself. If that is the case, then yes, this should take care of the same. Taking the HDD out of the seagate case might take some work, but putting it inside this one's a breeze!

If you take the 2TB Seagate Backup Plus Slim drive out of its enclosure (this is a well documented procedure) the SATA drive inside should certainly be compatible with this unit.

The seagate STAK100 comes with plastic insert sleeves around the drive interface connectors. You can pull these out easily with two fingers pushing from the inside and up. It opens up more space around the interface connectors. This space will accommodate the larger Seagate Goflex drives. On the Seagate GoFlex drives only remove the USB3 adapter head so the drive connector is exposed. The drive should fit comfortably in the Stak100 unit when inserted straight on the interface connectors. Hope this helps.

I don't know, it didn't fit my 1Tb Seagate Goflex, I had to send it back, they were not nice and wrote me an email suggesting I didn't read the description, which I did. They wanted to only give me half my money back due to shipping costs.

That would depend on the type of USB on the hard drive. Most of my USB 2.0 seagate drives uses mini USB, not mini USB.

if you pull the external hard drive from its case it will work unless the internal hard drive uses an older PATA (EIDE) connector instead of SATA, anything from 2006 and above should have an SATA connector generally speaking.

No. The Backup Plus is a portable hard drive, which means it's using a smaller laptop hard drive inside. This is meant for their Seagate GoFlex drive which is non portable and uses a larger desktop drive. My advice would be to get a portable USB enclosure with USB 3.0 compatibility, take the actual hard drive out of your Backup Plus, and put it in the new enclosure.

i buy this item to upgrade my 2 TB seagate go flex to 3.0 usb. The item include ths 3.0 cable and the power cord. I am not sure if will fit yours.

As far as encased hard drives, it only works with the Seagate Backup Plus series. BUT, it also works great with bare internal SATA drives, both 2.5" and 3.5". Bare drives have a tendency to lean a little bit when plugged onto the base, but that's easily corrected by any non-conductive material used as a spacer.

This was an internal drive but with an external hard drive case, im sure it would work.

yes, put the hard drive in an external enclosure to convert it into an external hard drive

Netgear does not list the maximum size usb hard drive supported in the manual. I would think you should be able to get anything up to 3 TB to work if the hard drive is from one of the major manufacturers of hard drives. WD, Seagate, Hitachi, Toshiba. It will most likely depend on the firmware of the individual drives whether it works or not.

Works on mine, running the same. It just shows up like any other USB External Hard Drive would. Just remember not to force the drive into the case. (They may ship you the wrong screws at first)

Not quite sure as I recently replaced my harddrive on my mac with the exact same one that I had in it before. Maybe contacting Seagate directly might be a better alternative.

From Macally tech support, "...there is no limit on the size of the hard drive you put inside. My product development team says whatever is commercially available on the market should work fine."

Yes, I am successfully using this with all my USB 3.0 External Hard Drives 2 1/2" (Seagate's and Toshiba's) ranging from 500 GB to 1 TB. Works like a champ. I am using this on a Windows 7 Home tower computer I built (Intel platform). This unit provides enough power to run the external hard drives at USB spec 3.0.

I use it for iomega slim drive. But technically should work with any portable hard drive, as long as pin fits.
