Fast hard drive. Came formatted for Mac - easily reformatted for PC (research Dr. Google). Rugged exterior, drive and interface faster than old PC. Used as back-up and move to new PC.

Compact, seems solidly built. Being used for video file transfer from user to user. Conventional (ie, not solid state) storage, but good transfer rates.
