    Use this as a time machine drive on a Mac book pro. Worked straight out of the box and continues to perform on demand. What else can I say?

    The more you have on your computers internal storage, the slower it will eventually become. This drive is small and extremely portable.

    bought on advice of son in law he has all the neat things for his computer and every thing works great so that is the reason why I bought this back up device. can't think of any thing else to write about, I have bought other things from Best Buy and have not had any problems with the items that I bought. I think 50 words for a review is way to many' thats my opinion' sorry for my spelling I missed that class in school.
