    Needed (preferred) a backup hard drive for storage of photos, documents, programs, etc., in the event of a crash. This one fit the bill, with adequate storage space for my needs, and was virtually plug-and-play: install it, follow the simple instructions, and it was up and running in almost no time at all. Only serious time involved was with the file backup, which was expected.

    Good device with a drawback

    I use the device for PC backup. It was easy to set up and works very well. The sleek design is much more space accommodating. One problem though. Sometimes my Windows 10 PC would fail to boot. The booting would start and then stop at the black screen with a flashing dash in the upper left corner. What I discovered was that unplugging the external hard drive allowed the PC to boot normally. So now I unplug it at shut down and reconnect the external drive after booting. It is a small inconvenience that allows me to use a good device.
