    Bought it because I was looking for a very small footprint external hard drive of 1tb+ size that would be easy to take with me. This one is powered by the laptop so no external power supply needed.

    Issues on two computers with program. Took multiple tries to get to work. Called the Toshiba help desk, no help. Not a computer expert but normally have no issues with things like this in the past. Would try a different brand.

      Thank you for the review, Tobie, and sorry to hear that you had some sort of problem using the Canvio Slim II drive.

      This unit is plug and play and is formatted to the Windows NTFS format so should be immediately available as an external storage device when connected to any Windows PC. For use with a Mac OS product one would typically use Disk Utility to reformat the drive to a native Mac OS format.

      If the drive proves to be defective you can initiate the warranty replacement process at acclaim.toshiba.com anytime during the warranty period.

      Thanks again for the feedback and sorry for the trouble. Toshiba

    Good product. Only downside is that the security software that's included needs to be downloaded onto a thumb drive so that it can be installed on other computers if you use your Toshiba drive on more than one machine.

    Picked this up after my WD external hard drive failed while I was backing up my laptop files. Seems to be a good replacement so far, and the back up software it came with is easy to use or remove.
