    Slow if you’re used to laptop SSDs but great for a long term backup that’s resistant to bumps and other stuff.

    Worked perfectly, but ended up returning because I needed a different storage solution. I can say these are great and this was my second one.

    I love the rugged design and overall feel of this unit! Very happy it has a standard USB-C connector rather than a micro-USB or those thin USB-B Micro connectors. We purchased two for our Macbook Pros for backup drives and a WD NAS so we have two backups locally.
