How it's going to work:
- Every few minutes, we're going to release more inventory.
- Shortly, the button below will turn back to yellow (unless we sell out).
- At that point, try adding it to your cart again.
Pro Tip: If that works, checkout as fast as you can. It won't be reserved until you are in checkout. Good luck!

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5System works great and using it everyday... Make sure that run the Windows exe before using it . This formats the device for WIN 10 and you get the full 1 TByte . Otherwise you get only 3GBytes. My mistake in not reading the instructions .

A must.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Great bang for your buck. When internal hard drives are coming in at 256, an external is a must. This one is solid and gives peace of mind. No regrets on this purchase.

Nice Little Drive
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I was looking for a new solid state external hard drive to gain the reliability of no moving parts to fail. I get tired of migrating data to a new drive every so often in anticipation of impending failure due to the moving parts that can eventually fail. I have also been migrating away from our desk top computer to a laptop and was looking for something with a smaller form factor. An added bonus of a SSD is no power block or wall wart as it is powered from the USB connection. I settled on this drive based on the highly rated reviews it gets. Moving my data from a traditional external hard drive to the G-Technology drive via my Mac Book Pro (a 2014 edition) went flawlessly and took a reasonable amount of time considering the amount of data to transfer. The design, style and construction of this little drive is impressive. I can't comment on long term reliability at this point however.
