    I still think this hard drive is portable but you have to notice that is not thin like the Slim version. However it has 4TB and you won't need a power supply just the USB3 cable. I recommend it

    I am a Mac user and have always gone with Seagate for my back up needs. It works fine and if need be, can be formatted via Mac's formatting tools easily. This time though, I'm actually using the hard drive as an extended storage for my PS4 and my Playstation formatted it perfectly and have not had any issues what so ever. The design is sleek and easy to carry if need be.

    No complaints. I have been using the drive for over 3-months without a glitch. This is expected since I own a previous 1TB drive which is a workhorse.

    I shoot a great deal of raw video and photos for tourism and business. This has helped store both original and edited content. Backup is on another one.
