    Bought it as a gift for a person with little computer skills. She is having a tough time navigating through the programs to set up the computer.

    I have had more computer crashes than I can count so I back up frequently to various sources. I have had this one over a year and it still works great. I like that it is so slim.

    Used this to upgrade the internal hard drive on my sons PS4 to 2 TB. Easy to pop the drive out of the case. Just take the old drive out of the PS4, pop it back in the case, reformat and then you have a new 500 GB external drive to use.

    I am a graphic designer, so having a dependable place to save files is a necessity. I bought this to back up my computer and archive my work. It has been a major asset. After having prior portable drives fail or get corrupted, this drive was a welcomed change.
