    I was concerned that I would not know how to use this back up/eternal hard drive - it was very easy to set it up. I do not have it backing up continuously - I plug it in to the laptop once a week, it finds any new information/files that have changed and just backs that up - it is so quick. It is light weight and small I love it

    I have purchased a few of these portable drives in both the 1Tb and 2Tb capacity to use at work. None have failed.

    It is small and easy to use. It can be used as a continuous backup or as a snapshot which gets it out of the way.

    If you are like me, you like tech, however you don't trust it either. I purchased this portable hard drive to have the ability to show family and friends important videos or pictures that mean a lot to me. I have 1 TB storage for my desktop, (not very portable) this one is great when I'm traveling.

    Today's laptops do not have enough storage for pictures and videos, so it is helpful to have an external storage.

    So far it has been everything I needed. 1TB is plenty of space to backup files from my desktop and Microsoft Surface. Not much else for me to say about it. It's quite small and compact. Works fine. Would definitely recommend as an external HDD for your backups and file storage for a reasonable price.
