    Bought 2 for time machine backups and extra storage for kids at college. Runs from power from the computer - handy, no cord to lose. Seems to be very fast copying data to.

    I used the hard drive to store photos from my old computer. Unfortunately when I tried to download them into the new computer from it, they were not there anymore. I did everything according to the directions, but I lost those photos.
