    I have not been able to figure out how to backup my data without having internet. I've looked through YouTube videos and have been disappointed. I guess I'll have to wait until I get internet.

    It does the job. Can be used as secondary storage for less frequently used items. Can't be compared with SSD drives though.

    These are worthless as usb drives but if you shuck them you get a usable sata drive. Its a shame manufactures have resorted to this. It was nice to actually be able to buy a drive when you wanted it and not have to hack a plastic cage off it that has a tiny usb to sata adapter that usualy fails leaving you with a custom formatted drive you cannot recover you data without paying.
