    I currently have another device and needed additional space. The HD is very quick and i have no complaints from previous purchase. It has a slimmer design than WD.

    I bought this HDD to backup a new PC. It installed and ran flawlessly. It took 14 hrs for the initial backup of 201 GB of a 1 TB drive. It does not require a separate power connection which is a nice attribute. I have not been able to test the restore capability. I previously used Windows 7 backup which I could not restore from on my new PC

    Purchased this to replace my ps4's hard drive. Works great, easy to install all you have to do is remove the casing. Would highly recommend this as it is cheaper than an internal hard drive that does the same thing.

    I bought this drive to back up my work Macbook and also to be used between my Mac and PC. It was easily partitioned with the Mac and shuffled back and forth. I also really liked that it comes with the 200 GB OneDrive bonus. .Although that is not enough cloud storage to back up the drive it is helpful for me for an additional back up of video data.

    The thing that sets this external drive apart is it's style. Not only is it thin and light, it's also all white, which is unusual. It's also an excellent value, holding 2TB in a thin/light package for under $100.
