    I have a Maxtor external hard drive and thought this would probably work the same way. It did not. I was very confused trying to save only the items I wanted to save. I think it might be good if one wants to just back-up.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I had bought this after comparing it to the Western Digital external HD of the same size. The price was better, and the connection speed was faster. The initial set up of the software was a piece of cake, then it came to the first backup. It at and froze at 3% for well over an hour and made no further progress. I was patient and let it continue, and after a few hours the backup was finally complete. After this, the backups have been extremely easy. Don't be disheartened if it seems to freeze on you at first, since it will work. Just hoped the process would have been faster to begin with, and show more accurately what the progress actually was.
