    Purchased this external HD so that I could back up files on my PC's HD. I have many photographs, for work, on this HD and losing anything would be catastrophic. This works well and is as easy to use as plug and play.

    this was easy to set-up (just plug it in), and works well (pretty quick, no problems). We use it to back-up a lap-top computer.
