    So far so good. I had to “repair” it once but that happens using an external exfat drive with a Mac. Had to repair using my Lenova Laptop. Good idea if you don’t reformat for Mac to have a Windows computer available to clean up time to time

    So far so good. The drive is and does what it says it does. There was no power cable in the box when I opened it. But Best Buy immediately resolved the situation and got me a new power supply on the very next day. Thank you Best bye good job as usual.

    I only gave this one star because I couldn't give it a lower rating. This came broken and my other exact Seagate broke yesterday after I had it for only 3 months. I had SO MUCH information and downloads on it that can not be recovered! STAY AWAY FROM SEAGATE!!! Don't lose your valuable data! I just traded in my broken one for a WD. Good luck to you if you buy this garbage!

    NOT 16 GB!!!!

    Not 16 GB. It checks out at 14.5 GB. I bought in part with $220 gift card after purchase of a major appliance. I can't figure out what is taking 1.5 GB of space on drive. Even after reformatting still only 14.5 GB. Is this false advertising? Cud have gotten 16 GB WD drive elsewhere for less but I have had really bad experiences with WD drives in my past. Still 14.5 GB much more than I need at this time but I am disappointed and annoyed that I can't see where the 1.5 B is on the hard drive.
