    Completely satisfied with this product. I copied the hard drive of my desktop to it in a relatively short period of time. Only negative was it wasn’t obvious how to update the disk before use.

    I've used portable hard drives for years. Moving to this little SSD has been a great upgrade. It is fast, easy to use, and the 1TB is a great amount of storage. I highly recommend it.

    I ended up trying a portable SSD when the internal hard drive failed on my Mac. Now I can use the same drive either at home on the Mac or on the go with my MacBook. Well pleased with the speed!

    Way better than my last drive and the download/transfer speed is amazing. I was honestly surprised that it only took 3 hours to transfer 700 GB from my last drive into this one, if not less time.

    I like this drive quite a bit. It is quick transferring data, as quick as the solid state drive for the OS of my laptop. Also being an SSD it is quiet and unobtrusive. A good purchase
