    I am a photographer & I work with video, so my laptop is constantly filling up with all this nonsense. This External Hard drive was such a good purchase. The price was very do-able for a whole terabyte of space, and it has aided me so much. I haven't had any problems with it, besides the fact that when using it with a laptop the length of the cord is kind of awkward sometimes.
