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 purchased this to store movies and music on, and it is working flawlessly so far. The 3.0 USB is so much faster with my PC's 3.0 USB capability! Of course, it will work with 2.0 USB, as well. I play media right from the drive and and very pleased with it.

    It's an external hard drive, so what can be said other than you can read/write from/to it. I've had the drive for a couple of weeks and am using it for storing high res music files. It seems to work flawlessly and is a bit faster than my WD drive even though it's using a USB 2.0 connection. So far, I'm quite happy with it.

    I bought this after my LaCie backup drive failed with only 1/6 of it's capacity filled and 2 1/2 years. I bought this product on the advice of one of your employees and it seems to be working ok. I was not pleased to see that Seagate had bought LaCie so I am basically replacing what I had with - what I had. Time will tell.....
