    This drive fits my need for a good portable HD. The only issue is that I had to purchase a longer cable, the that came with it was too short, unworkable.

    This very small and simple to use backup is just what we needed. My wife says “It’s a Photographers must have”. Great product for people on the go.

    Great SSD. Very small and portable which is great for me at college. I use it as a time machine backup drive and it has enough storage for all my data. It comes with a USB to USB-C adapter so you can use it with any conputer which is good for those who have multiple devices.

    GREAT PORTABLE USB DRIVE

    The main feature that drew my attention to this drive was the large hole in the upper conner of the device. This allowed me to use a large clamping device to easily attach this drive to almost anything. My backpack, lunch bag and belt loop if I so choose. This made transport of the drive much more convenient for me. Second, was the Type C usb since most of my new equipment is moving in that direction, this device is able to adapt to the new equipment as well as stay connected to my older devices. Of course the speed and performance is great.

    Larger and faster than a USB stick in a still small package. Great for keeping large amounts of data handy. No functional issues to date.
