    This product was the third one that I bought. The other two did not work--this one did. I am happy to have found one at last that works. But I wish they were easier to install. I don't want to know "tech-speak." I want to plug it in like I plug a phone into the wall and have it work.

    I love this external. Bought many external drives and found a good deal on this at Best Buy. Backed up my 8 year old laptop so I could have my data available for the Surface Pro my company issued me. It streams audio and video files very efficient through the USB 3.0 technology!

    The more photos and clips I save and tag, and the more updates that take up space, the more relieved I am that should I lose anything or have to buy a newer PC, at least my data files are stored on an external drive and are saved or and could be loaded into a newer PC.

    Installation is a breeze. You can program it to back up the data at some wee hour, and it does it. If it encounters any problems, it tells you and you can do a manual back up immediately. Overall I'm satisfied with the product and the price.

    I was surprised by how quick and easy installation was. For the first time we're able to actually use the wireless feature on our printer. Laptops, iPads, android phones, and our Dish TV service all accessed our wireless network with no issues.

    I bought this as a gift for someone traveling overseas to store photos and movies. The portable size makes it easy to carry when you are packing light. We also have one at home. It has been very useful, easy to use, with a great capacity.

    It's light and inexpensive and works fine. It needed a software installation to to run on my Mac and that's annoying if I need to use it on more than one computer.

    I am very pleased with this device. My files are now automatically backup without me having to do anything. This means that if something happens to my primary PC I will have all of my data. This gives me peace of mind.

    It's a hard drive. You put stuff on it. It's pretty simple. I'm not using any of the backup software, just data storage.

    Unfortunately, SSD drives are still a bit pricey, so this drive is a great alternative. With USB 3 it's the fastest transfer rate you'll get. Actually bought 3 of these as we needed to transfer LOTS of data.

    I had not backed up my newer laptop. After an infection impacted my device, I was kindly told to purchase a back up device. I was sold one that would suit my needs. Nothing extravagant. Just right for me.

    This is a great replacement for an old external hard drive. Only negative is you better keep up with the connection cord because the connection to the hard drive. Is not your run of the mill USB connection.

    I needed a way to pass HUGE music and graphics files to others in my office for a client. Simple and fast "plug & play". Good price for 500 gigs!

    I've had several external hard drives with varying success. I have had several die on me or take forever to download. This unit does not seem to have those problems. Download times and connections are quick and efficient.

    This was the first external harddrive I purchased. It was recommended by an individual who worked on my PC. It does not take up alot of space, but is adequate for my needs.
