    Good price for a decent External HDD. USB 3.0 with pretty good transfer speeds. Love the compact size. Not a fan of the glossy finish though, would have preferred matte.

    This hard drive is small, quiet, and has plenty of space for backing up my computer and especially all of my photos. Plug it in and forget about backups.

    This is not the first Toshiba Canvio Connect 2.5 Drive that I have bought. They are all going strong. I was amazed when I first saw them as now I was buying a 2.5 TB for the same price I was paying for a 2.0 TB. The Toshiba External Hard Drives are great. I own 8 of them and have never had a problem. The flexibility it gives with storing is great. The security of knowing my data is always safe and backed-up is also great. By the way, I also own Toshiba Laptops. The Best Buy price, was the best.

    When stated 2.5. Terabytes, 2.5 terabytes is what you receive... not 2.5 minus proprietary software. Kudos there. Works perfect running linux mint on 10 yr old Dell laptop. So backwards compatible to USB 2 was well welcomed. Great price point for xtrnl hd.

    We've been using this external hard drive for time machine in our office for more than 2 years now and never had a problem. Despite that it was not mac ready fresh form the box, the formatting was easy with Mac's own disc utility. After that, everything works great.

    I needed a batch of disk space but I didn't want to buy one of those bricks that needs an AC adapter. This fits the bill. 2.5Tb, USB 3.0 and I get 100Mb/Sec copying to my solid state drive on my notebook

    I actually like the software it came with. Lots of room & good performance. This is my 2nd Toshiba cavio. First one is 65% full and works great. The price point made this a great buy at BB.
