    Several files have been corrupted at random on this drive about a month into ownership. This is the most useless hard drive I’ve ever purchased. The purpose of using an actual hard drive is for its ability to retain data and less likely decomposition of data. The only really nice thing about the drive is the protective casing. I should have returned it instead of assuming it would stop happening.

    Drive did not work. I could see it in the "safely remove hardware and eject media" tab, but was not in file explorer or disc management. If I had known SanDisk is a Western Digital product, I wouldn't have purchased it. I've had less than positive experiences with WD drives in recent years that resulted in loss of data.

    I had this hard drive for three weeks and then it failed and I had just put all of my major project folders onto the drive just for a couple of hours while i cleared space on my SSD's and bam. $3600 to be able to get my files recovered.

    Plug-N-Play for Macs. Website info Windows Users

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This portable drive is designed for plug-n-play for Macs. For this windows user this is a switch and was the primary cause of my initial installation challenges. I do not recall any of the instruction sheets that came with the box identifying the steps needed for use, but the instructions were on the website and easy to follow. Once you come to the realization that there is nothing wrong with your PC or the drive, and find the website instructions for re-formatting; it is smooth sailing. Unfortunately, I do not have a direct link for installation on the website. Of course, you should not be clicking on links from strangers anyway.

    Beware: This is formatted for Macs, not PCs!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This external drive arrives formatted for Macs, not for PCs. If you have a PC you will see it in your devices, but File Explorer will not recognize it unless you reformat the drive first. While the tech support person I reached through a chat with the company was very helpful, it was extremely frustrating not being able to use it right out of the box--I was already having computer problems that necessitated getting an external drive in the first place! Now that it's formatted correctly it seems to be working fine.
