    Needed to back up an old computer before transitioning to a new one, and this was perfect. Definitely a plus to be solid state.

    Used exclusively with my ps5. Great alternative ext sdd for the ps5 compared to other sdd externals. Only downside is the cable is short if you do use it for a console.

    I paid extra for the SSD, but found it to have similar speed of a HDD external drive. I returned this and got a 2TB HDD version for about half the cost. Way overpriced even at the sale price of $129...

    Bought to use as a PC backup encase entire reinstall is needed. Added password when it suggested, now it’s not formatted correctly and can’t figure out how to remove the password. Otherwise good product.
