    Did a lot of comparison prior to choosing this item. Needed extra hard drive space for our PS4. Works great and comes with the chord.

    Using it as a backup for my Mac. Works good, reasonably fast data transfer. Fortunately I have not had to restore my PC to date. Hopefully will never have to find out if the rostral works.

    The Seagate hard drives are not automatically formatted to your APPLE and can give you a bit of a hard time if you are switching computers. Reliability has improved over the years (I hope!)

    I work as a video producer, so I'm constantly needing drive space to transfer and/or pass along HD video files and projects... Bought this drive for that very purpose, and it worked like a champ.

    This is a great and inexpensive way to upgrade the hard drive space on an XBOX One S. This more than Quadruples the space and is powered by the USB. Very small form factor is a plus as well.

    I am happy that this was easy to use and set up. I have no issues with it backing up when I want it to, or on a schedule. I also like that it has a lot of memory and is still very small.
