    I installed the product and software exactly per the directions. The external drive appeared on the desktop. The instructions directed a computer restart; after the restart, the drive could not be located or accessed. Took it to Best Buy, the Geek Squad had the same issue. Went back to what I should have purchased originally, a WD, similar to what I had prior, only a large drive for storage.
