Simple to use. Very small package which store lots 1TB. Back up multiple devices with ease. A external hard drive you can carry in your pocket. Smaller than a small cell phone.

This hard drive allows me to keep important documents with me as I go back and forth to home and work. This also frees up space on my laptop to fit my son's games.

The Toshiba Canvio slim III is an excellent drive for extra storage, backups, and system image making. It is tiny and light making it very portable yet it is also well constructed so there are no fears of fragility. When connected to a USB 3 port it is also very fast. The software available for use is well constructed and does a great job of keeping me on my toes and making regular backups.

Just What I Needed to Store Larger Files

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I purchased this portable hard drive for storing larger files when I started running out of space on a different portable drive. Plugged it in and it runs without a single hitch and has plenty of space for what I need. I don't need any of the software that's pre-installed, so I'll likely delete it. The price is great and I wouldn't hesistate to purchase it again.

I purchased this to supplement a small internal SSD on my son's new laptop. Since I do not allow him to download any content without my complete scrutiny, he is not filling that SSD up. Was this a needless purchase? Nope. I use it to back up personal files, pics/videos, music, etc. Its very small and low profile. i like the LED light on the front that lets me know its getting power, which is supplied via the USB connection. I would recommend it to anyone.
