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.

    This is a good drive. I needed to replace on that had recently failed so I picked this one up at a good price. The only issue I have is that it likes to self eject it self from the PC when I am doing large file transfers. Doing some research about the issue I cannot find a clear answer if it is the drive or my computer. Otherwise it is quite good.
