Generally speaking, a backup drive does not exploit the speed of an SSD drive. Most hard drives of similar capacity are less expensive and are very suitable for backup purposes. You can better exploit the potential of your SSD by using it as your main drive in your computer. The process of doing this is not hard, but involves several important steps so you do not loose the data on the existing drive or render installing your operating system and application software without having to buy the licenses again. For example, Windows 10 requires a product code as well as their productivity software. You need to have these keys before doing such a transition. ScooterSled
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can however it will be a bit slower going from USB 3.0 to USB 2.0. It would almost be better just to buy an external 2TB drive if you were going to use it as an external for the same money.
