    I’m using it as an external drive for an Xbox One X—load times are significantly decreased and this works perfectly.

    I had an older external harddrive that I used for pictures. I needed more space. This gave me plenty! I can now upload my pictures and business stuff too.

    I've had several T5's. They each work flawlessly. SSD is the way to go. The cheap portable drives fail after two years.

    The BEST Solid State External I have Owned

    Purchased this over Black Friday on sale, and I have been thoroughly pleased with this device. Some folks have complained about this not being compatible with Apple OS devices, but following a quick firmware update, and downloading a newer version of the operation software, this thing has worked like a charm. The software is simple, yet informative, and you may password encrypt your data through the software. Data retrieval is reasonably fast, and this will make for an excellent backup drive. Will likely be purchasing additional units for both home and office use.

    This is one of the fastest one out there. Best Buy price was comparable to online vendors but they had it in stock, so I bought it there in the store

    I purchased this SSD as an add-on to my iMac 5K. The iMac comes with a Fusion drive so I wanted the option of having faster read/write speeds when needed. When the T5 is on sale, its a no brainer. This will also be used with my iPad Pro with iPad OS. I am pleased with this purchase.
