Customers are saying

Customers commend the Backup Plus Desktop 3TB External USB 3.0/2.0 Hard Drive for its ample storage space, ease of use, and reliable performance, particularly with Time Machine. Many appreciate its excellent value for the price and quiet operation. While some users mention the need for a separate power supply and occasional heat generation, these concerns are relatively minor compared to the overwhelmingly positive feedback. The drive's compatibility with various USB versions and its suitability for backup purposes are also frequently highlighted.

    I'm very pleased with how fast you can transfer data, etc... to this hard drive. The best part is you don't have to download anything to your computer (from the hard drive or anything else) to make it work. I put my sd card in the computer, copied the info, and then pasted into the hard drive.
