    OK to be used as an external hard drive. However the security settings are sort of a pain for a hard drive that I am only using with my home computer.

    Still reviewing this but so far, It has had two communications interruptions during large file transfers. I have only used this on a single device, so far (new Laptop) so I can't rule out USB 3 port issue on the new laptop at this time. I will update is this continues.

    product was fine delivery was dismal. Delivery company claimed they left it on our doorstep, while they actually left a very damp package at the foot of our driveway . Fortunately we did not run over it when we came home! Hardly a great way to treat electronics! Not impressed with service.
