    I've had this less than one month, so this isn't a longevity review. So far, it appears to be efficient at backing up my laptop. It gets a bit hot while it's working; cools down pretty quickly. Reassuring to have so much memory in such a small, efficient device.

    This hard drive flies through files when I transfer with my M1 Mac. This is a great item and will more than likely add a second one in the future

    Great hard drive. Tiny. It doesn’t take up much space. Always do a solid state drive. No moving parts to worry about breaking with any rattling around.

    I have multiples of these and recommend them. they are small enough that I am able to use something like a contact strip to stick it to the side of my case. These will also work great as Dash Cam drives if you own a Tesla or Rivian.

    Small, fast, and comes in choice of colors. This drive is at its best when plugged into a USB C thunderbolt port on a Mac. They are not the fastest out there but a dedicated Thunderbolt drive gets very hot and will slow down to the same speed as this when they get hot. All in all it’s a good product. Haven’t had a problem.

    Great device. It has come in handy to be able to keep my phone storage low but still ahve access to off cloud items. Especially since my online storage was full. I used as a video/picture mostly due to sports photography.

    When I plugged the product into the tower, an icon did not appear. A customer service agent said that a box should have appeared to format the disc. But this did not occur.
