    Used to back up my MacBook Air. Very suggestion by the Best Buy associate. When I spoke with Apple about the issue of doing back ups Apple recommended the same hard drive. Love it.

    This is the second LaCie Hard Drive I bought. I left the original at my seasonal home. Works just as good as the first one but wish there was clearer instructions as to how to install this especially for those who are not computer proficient.

    I've used this for large file transfers. The drive is very fast and it's nice that it comes with a USB C cable and a USB 3.1 cable. Works natively on my PC and Mac. Plus the metal design is great.

    I like the slickness of this external. Not the fastest but I use it just for backing up my ‘main’ external SSD. Well worth the price tag if you don’t care for speed too much. Just my 2¢!
