    Solid SSD. Does seem to have slower write speeds than expected though the bottle neck might be my 8 year old computer instead.

    I had to reformat the drive to get it compatible with Carbonite, but it works perfectly now. SSD is clearly the way to go.

    Does exactly what it's supposed to. Good, reliable data storage. The rubber coating provides extra peace of mind if you ever drop it or need to store it somewhere unpadded.

    I haven't had any issues so far. I like the blue status light where it shows activity when things are being written or read. The case is pretty nice. I am using on a MacBook Pro and formatted in APFS.

    This is an awesome tool. I wasn't aware that this could be done until my grandson and daughter showed me. I have used this tool to remove all of my private information for my computer. Thank you.

    It was a struggle to upload photos to it at first, but works great after some tries. Definitely recommend it if you’re out of storage due to photos and videos on your iPhone! Just buy an adapter and you’d be fine!

    It's a good external hard drive. It is very fast and rugged. The only downside is that it is thicker than the standard Samsung T7.
