    A great deal on a large hard drive! I'm not even worried about running out of space. I didn't realize it required its own plug-in to electricity but that's nothing I'm bothered by since there is so much space on the hard drive.

    Set up connections went well. I would have found helpful some remedial direction on how to effectively use the external hard drive to transfer date from older PC to a new PC. The product is working well on a daily basis. I just need to learn how to sort out the old files better. My problem, not that of the product.
