    Provide reliable portable storage for your Mac or Windows PC with this G-Technology drive. It uses USB-C technology to transfer data at speeds as high as to 136MB/sec., and it contains 4TB of storage, plenty of room for music and photos. This G-Technology drive is small enough to take with you anywhere.

    I got this to back up a project but 125mb/s speed it Plus you have to power to the wall so it's not easy to move around. I upgraded to the 10TB Usb G Drive for storage and plugged into my apple airport capsule. You should only be considering Thunderbolt if you're thinking of setting up a custom raid. Btw 6tb it's only 20 bucks more plus more speed. Only buy this if you got a desk set up and it's your only safe choice

    I’ve used one of these for a couple of years and needed an additional one for a different purpose. The price is great for the amount of storage and speed of this drive. They also provide a great warranty for data loss although I haven’t had to use it.

    I needed a larger external drive for storing photos---and one that would work well with my MacBook and Lightroom. Another requirement was a drive that didn't draw too much power from my laptop. I have been very pleased with this device so far. While it is much larger than a regular USB drive, the performance has been excellent. I highly recommend this drive.

    I’ve been using Glyph drives for a very long time and I have never had any issues. This one is no exception. It’s built like a tank. For the price it’s hard to beat. It has a USB-C port on the back but also comes with a USB-C to USB-A adapter.

    Very easy to set up as it is already set up for Mac. Just plug it in and select use for Time Machine as I did or it can be used for your specific needs. Lots of storage space for backing up my two main drives. If using with a Windows computer it needs to be reformatted.

    The drive is pretty good. It is fast, and can charge my MacBook 12 inch while connected. I utilize this drive for my large Lightroom collection. It is able to do everything without lagtime, which is what I was looking for.

    I’m a filmmaker that requires a lot of storage, this drive not only allows me to edit on the go but is fast enough to handle bigger projects. Highly recommend this product for filmmakers that have a laptop and need more storage and editing space.

    Got this to backup my gaming machine and so far it works perfectly. I was able to backup my C and D drive as well as create a image of my PC. Also, the speed on the box of 150 mbps is true, I got really close to that. It took just under an hour to backup both drives and create a system image. It is also Thuderbolt 3 compatible if I ever want to go that route.

    only thing i can say is i wish i bought this thing a couple years ago! it is hands down the fastest hard drive i have ever had! i can download 10gb of photos in a minute or less. i love how it also powers my mac while it is on. one thing that is slightly annoying about it is that even after ejecting, i have to turn off the power button. i have forgotten a couple times and it says (ejected improperly/had a mini panic attack) but nothing was corrupted - ie. I wish there was a reminder that told you to power it down, even after ejecting from the device.

    I was concerned that it would be complicated to install and use, but I was completely wrong. You just plug it in and go. I do wish it had more storage space, but the speed and ease of use make up for it. I’m not we’ll versed on tech, and all the specs, but I am extremely happy with this hard drive.

    Glyph hard drives have always been my favorite because of their warranty. I have own three of them: two portable without the need of a power supply and now this one. It transfers very fast and has been great for editing videos. The one thing I hope they improve is its bulkiness and weight.
