This is a good product but the built in security is not intuitive to use. Otherwise, works well and gets the job done. Easy to carry around since it's lightweight.

I had an internal hard drive starting to act up on my Mac Mini. I added this SSD external drive, and used Carbon Copy to Clone the existing hard drive including OS and boot up to this external SSD. I now use it as my boot drive. Very satisfied.

The drive works well being my back up drive for my computer. Copies fast from my MacBook Pro with usb3 ports. The only complaint is that the cable appears to be unique to the drive's plug-in end (I haven't seen that type of end before) so if I misplace my cord I'm out of luck using it. Also found the location of the port on the drive to be a bit awkward.

As my Photos library is huge, and I don't want to pay for online storage, this tiny drive allows me a simple option for keeping the photos up to date, whichever computer I choose to use. Being a solid state drive, I'm not worrying about losing the data when I transport it on vacations and the like.

Purchased this to archive my photos when I travel. Small and portable.
Jack for cord is somewhat fragile and requires care when using.
