    Let's start off by saying I needed something easy/foolproof (not some crazy format/interface i'd have to get used to or deal with file type conversions), reliable (doesn't make my files go poof or disappear or decide to quit working randomly), secure (could put a password on certain files or the whole hard drive), light weight, portable, and with a reasonably large amount of storage. SSD is the way to go when choosing between SSD and other standard hard drives. It is durable to a point and won't break with frequent use as long as you make sure you don't plug it in while your computer is charging, keep it cool (some heat is generated when using and that is normal), and don't drop it into a blender (or leave it in an autoclave) so treat it like you would most tech devices. I am a loyal Mac user and my college uses PC predominately, so I needed an external hard drive that could safely save and store files and have them in a format that would transfer well between Mac and PC and some various educational and lab software and not have to constantly deal with file type conversions. I also needed this to handle a vast amount of school files, internship files, and personal files and wasn't a pain to haul around or worry about it getting hacked. It is small about the size of a deck of cards but slightly thinner and fits in the palm of my hand, clips onto my keyring, and came with both a usb and usb-c connector (idk if it works with lightning connectors or iPhone/IOS storage haven't tried that yet) but it has managed everything from Microsoft Word Products to Apple Pages products to videos, audio recordings, pictures, CAD files, Texas Instrument Calculator Files, Apps and Programs I rarely use, etc and has been amazing. For the average college student and person I would say its a perfect backup hard drive but for me and my excessively large files it makes a wonderful portable flash drive! I hate paying for cloud storage and I like my digital data in a more tangible form.. so far it has saved me money. In my 90 or so days of use it has been phenomenal!

    The Geek Squad tech told me to buy this for the new Apple - MacBook Air 15-inch Apple M4 chip Built for Apple Intelligence - 16GB Memory - 256GB SSD - I bought. He was then able to use it to set up my computer properly. He told me it was the best. And it is FAST!

    I got this to be one of my multiple physical copies of all my pictures, and it seems to be alright as of right now. I definitely wouldn't place all my trust in it though. After doing some research, I've decided that having multiple physical copies across different brands as well as some sort of digital cloud system is the way to go. If anyone is buying this assuming it's going to be their solution to storage, then I would urge you to watch some data storing and protecting videos. So far, it's great, but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE try the cautious strategy and get multiple SSD's/portable hard drives to store your data if you really care about your pictures and stuff
