    Works great with my Xbox and pc, the cord is a little short, but that's really my only complaint.

    This is a safe and easy way to backup your files. I have read where people have done online backups and had their information stolen. You can take this and use it on any computer too because it is portable. I had computer issues and could not get to my documents. This way I always have them with me. I wish I had thought of this sooner.

    We travel quite a bit and this drive allows us to backup our many photos very conveniently. Very compact physical size with a very large storage size. We plan to add a second one for off-premise storage to rotate with this one. We also picked up a suitable carrying case from the many camera and tablet cases offered at Best Buy for day to day cushioned protection.
