    It didn’t come with instructions, and was very slow to download movies too( I have other devices that were cheaper that did it faster) and then requires a certain movie data reader to then play the movie.

    Cord doesn’t connect well to Apple computer. I had to use my apple adapter to plug it in to connect it.

    It’s a g tech so it’s good. Sometimes it’s hit or miss. If you must go with g tech, sea gate is much better for the buck

    This drive became unreadable on my Mac computer after less than a year. The drive powers up, but won’t display contents. A friend was able to access the data on their PC, but it was not easy. I do not recommend.

    It would not work on my brand new Lenovo. I returned the product. Also, G-Technology (Western Digital) is worthless as far as customer service is concerned.
