    The size is much smaller than I think, however the capacity is very large. Fully satisfied my usage. And I really like the design.

    It's nice. It's little. I don't have to plug it in. In fact I have two and might order another. I'm a photographer with lots of stuff to keep backing up.

    This is a great hard drive for the money. Very slim and portable. It's pretty fast for a HDD. I wasn't expecting SSD speeds but this does the job for sure.

    If you're looking to backup data this device will suit you fine. I was wanting to back up digital files and play them on my tv. I'm not able to do this. Should have checked it's compatability prior to purchasing, but it is being used to store other files.

    Bought for my PS4 when you could finally use it for external memory. Had to format drive before it could be used, but that is expected. No complaints
