    Easy to use. The instruction booklet could have provided more information as it pertains to all the plug adaptors.

    I thought it would be smaller and portable. That's why I gave it 4 stars. I have a smaller 4 gb thats portable and powdered by usb. I love it But I will make this work as my main dump drive. And keep my portables free space.

    Works OK. Reformat for "File History" backups.

    I believe I received an "open box" item because the drive was not recognized by windows when I connected it to my PC, nor were the "quick start" instructions in the box. A friend formatted the drive on a Linux box, then reformatted it on my PC, and it works well now. It turns out that this was a "blessing in disguise" because the drive as formatted by the factory cannot be used for windows "File History" backups. After setting it up, working well!

    This is a great buy. Got it set up very easily and backed up my old back up drive that had been damaged. Easy enough for an old 70 yr old lady... works wonderful.
