    I couldn't believe that the cost for twice the amount of storage was only $5 more that 500 GB.

    I bought this external drive because it is supposed to be compatible with Mac and PC but I found it difficult to backup data from Mac onto it. Of course I am a 50+ woman and challenged by these things.
