    Has lots of space and easy to use. I did have trouble finding where my backup was and customer service tried to help but didn't really. Had to go to Geek Squad for that.

    I am glad I purchased this item and had Best Buy backup all my data. I shipped my computer off to Dell to fix after Best Buy backed up my info. Well Dell fixed my computer but then Dell shipped my computer to a Best Buy in Oklahoma instead of back to me in Texas. It's been three weeks and Dell can't seem to get FexEx to pick up my computer and get it back to me!!! I'm glad I have my files. But warning - don't buy anything from Dell!!!
