    I'm using this drive to hold my massive photo and video collection. The casing is more durable and is slimmer than my old 500GB WD Passport.

    So far, the unit has worked flawlessly. It's fast, much faster than I would have expected. It's also light and requires only USB power. Win-win.

    This is a tremendous portable hard drive. It's sleek design makes it like Dr. Who's tardis -- bigger on the inside than it seems on the outside.

    This is perfect for backing up all of my data. I was able to use it on my laptop and my desktop to back everything up. The "manual" wasn't much, so I had to figure out how to make it work to backup what I wanted. Other than that, it is perfect.

    I was looking for a portable external hard drive for our newly purchased Xbox One S and I found this one on Black Friday. It was on sale for a great price and identical (except it's white and not green) to the same Xbox specific green drive that sells for about $20 more. The drive is working great so far, although it's only been a couple weeks.

    We had a hard drive crash and needed to put a new one in our laptop. When I picked up the computer my Geek Squad representative was very helpful and even though he was by himself with no other help, he managed customer service exceptionally well. There were others he helped while also giving me attention. As a business owner and understanding the necessity and benefits of customer service, it seems that even though the Geek Squad was understaffed while I was there, they did everything in their power to make my visit pleasant.

    I'm not exactly sure how this works if I had used it they it was "meant" to be but I needed a new Hard drive for my ps4. Now if you need it for the same reason I needed it then by all means get this HDD. Don't bother with the 1 or 2yr. Warranty by the store because it will be voided once you crack the casing open. Just take a flat head screw driver or knife and gently start opening it. Once out take out the HDD take off the usb coupler and you got yourself a bare drive for your ps4. Just look up a video on YouTube for the rest.
