    I bought this to use as a Time Machine backup for my MacBook Pro. It is amazingly fast and small. Definitely worth the price.

    Perfect device needed for a lower storage Mac! If you like to do editing, and have to keep making new folders/files. You need to get this, you can save more money getting this rather than upgrading your macbook to more storage…that still won’t be enough.

    Bought two to use as external drives for our cameras, worked extremely well. We have used other drives in the past which would struggle to write quickly enough for the cameras we use at maximum settings, and thus would lose frames - we had no such problems with this model. Worked perfectly, would recommend for any professional AV company. Great price point for the amount of storage as well.

    Super External Drive

    The setup is very straightforward. There is nothing complicated to do. The device is so small it's hard to believe so much storage can be saved on a credit card size device. Be certain to format the drive to the specs of your OS or cloud service. I thought the drive was formatted for NTSF, a format if you use Dropbox. Apparently, I had to format the drive to NTSF. That was not a big deal to do but be aware that you may have to format the drive.

    Works perfectly as it should. Looks good if that matters. I wish the light indicator was on the other side from the connector, though. I'd buy it again.

    Works perfectly. My first SSD and how fast it loads folders of pictures takes my breath away. One thing though - when the software is loaded, a message says that the drive can't be used. Don't panic. Go into the Mac utilities, then the Disk Utility app. Reformat the SSD as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". That's all.

    I bought this for my ps5 system. So i can use my digital ps4 ganes on the ps5. Very good external ssd drive. Im no nerd im no tech savvy. But for me its very fast. Easy to use . Had no issues. Its expensive. But compared to other similar products its farily the same price point.

    A nice step up from the T5, faster and has a better hand feel. Under heavy loads it does get warm to the touch, but I think thats normal for a high performance drive
